Rejection does not define your worth from "summary" of Psycho-Cybernetics (Updated and Expanded) by Maxwell Maltz

The notion that rejection should not be equated with our self-worth is a fundamental principle that we must internalize. When we allow ourselves to be defined by the opinions or actions of others, we relinquish our power and agency over our own lives. Rejection is a natural part of the human experience, but it does not have the power to determine our value as individuals. A rejection, whether it be in the form of a failed relationship, a job opportunity, or a personal endeavor, is not a reflection of our intrinsic worth. It is merely a temporary setback on our journey towards personal growth and fulfillment. By internalizing this concept, we can free ourselves from the crippling fear of rejection and embrace the opportunities for growth and self-improvement that it presents. Our self-image is a powerful force that shapes our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. When we allow rejection to tarnish our self-image, we inadvertently give it the power to dictate our thoughts and actions. By cultivating a positive self-image and recognizing our inherent worth, we can navigate the challenges of rejection with grace and resilience.
  1. Our worth as individuals is not contingent upon the approval or validation of others. We must learn to derive our sense of value from within, rather than seeking external validation. When we embrace this mindset, we can overcome the fear of rejection and pursue our goals with confidence and determination. Remember, rejection is not a reflection of who we are, but merely a stepping stone on the path to personal growth and self-actualization.
