When you\u2019re assuming the worst and not wanting to deal with negative feedback, it\u2019s safer and easier to just not put things out there. But it\u2019s not a useful approach when you\u2019re trying to get clients I know it\u2019s hard. We\u2019re the face of our business. Any comments and feedback on the work we put out in the world is something we\u2019re prone to take personally. But growing in business starts with embracing rejection rather than avoiding it. If you\u2019re feeling like the fear is holding you back from sharing a blog post, promoting your services, increasing your prices or asking for feedback, think about what meaning you\u2019re assigning to the possible outcome of your marketing efforts. In this episode I encourage you to undertake a practical activity to examine what you\u2019re telling yourself in those moments. It\u2019s an important exercise to pushing past the fear and embracing the opportunity to grow. \u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.
