Worst thing is when you let that fear hold you back from going after something, and then later you find out that the opportunity would have been even better than you thought ... had you only taken it.

Tell me if I'm crazy but I was thinking about something the other day. I know you are a big fan of "role playing games" and that's why your blog caught my attention.... Being in "internet business" - sometime I feel as though the entire process of SEO, marketing, conversion rates, site optimization, etc. is like a giant "role playing game". I've sort of learned to treat it that way anyway. I guess it's the problem solving aspect of it that excites me. You take specific actions and get very measurable results - and so on - until you reach certain objectives. Anyway, maybe I play too many RPG's or maybe I've been working to hard or both... or maybe I'm just a little nutty to begin with..... :) True enough……

I guess people experience rejection in different stages in life. Although my high school and college days were pretty awesome, it is adulthood that gets me. Business is such a dog-eat-dog environment that sometimes unexpected results can deeply scar you. But, I'm sure you and I can rise above it. Hey Ed:

First, I thought of this: My favorite bball team (O State Cowboys) has a player who is arguably the best defender in the NCAA - his name is Marcus Dove. He's 6'9" and can guard all five spots on the floor. He'll be in the NBA next year. It's really exciting watching him play and you get to yell "rejected" all the time. Then you reminded me of high school: I was like the littlest boy in school (a late bloomer) so I was picked on, ridiculed, etc. (rejected) most of my school days. It's no fun to be rejected. In fact, I didn't never had a date until after high school.... Anyway, good points about learning from mistakes and time healing. Very true.... Hey Gio:
