About

Rejection Challenges is a series of challenges to help you overcome fear of rejection.

Imagine not being afraid of failure and rejection, you could accomplish anything in life, you open a whole new world of possibilities, when you accept failure and learn from it nothing can't stop you, that's when you become limitless.

'Do one thing every day that scares you.' - Eleanor Roosevelt

The goal

The goal here is to get comfortable at being rejected, and build confidence on yourself, you'll start to feel the power of becoming fearless right away, I guarantee you that.

The rules

Take the challenges in any way you want, go for the easy ones and then gradually move to the hard ones, or viceversa, mixed, or play the game 🎲

The only 3 rules:

1. If a challenge is about achieving/getting something, try your best to get it
2. Do not do the challenges with friends or family
3. Have lots of fun!
