Hey fellow DJs. I hope this post will give hope to all who just can't stand the thought or experience of rejection/failure.
I was talking to my father about my personal issues, specifically regarding my tendancy to give up or not even try at attempting to approach a girl because of my constant fear of rejection/failure. To help me out he let me in on his idea of rejection/failure. I would like to share it with you:
My dad loves the Discovery Channel/Animal Planet/etc., especially the shows that display wild cats, such as lions, cheetahs, tigers, and leopards hunting and catching their unfortunate prey. These cats go after their prey RELENTLESSLY and once they catch their prey they show absolutely NO MERCY. They don't make excuses or cry like a baby for not catching their prey because the other predators won't give a f*ck, they must not give up so easily or else they'll go hungry. The fact remains that the predators MUST catch their prey or else they will starve. They are fighting for their survival, so they concentrate all their time and effort on getting the job done no matter what. There is no way around it; they either catch their prey or they die, period.
The funny thing about those wildlife shows is that they only show the successful hunt and kill. They do not show the numerous times that the predators have tried again, and again, and AGAIN and utterly failed to catch the damn prey that is so f*cking good at avoiding getting caught.
If the predator was to give up on its 1st try, it would soon regret it when it is slowly dying from an empty stomach. That is why the predators try again, and again, COUNTLESS times even, to get what they want. The hunt is vital to them because they need the food to survive. Since it is such an important part of their lives, they make sure that nothing stands in their way, not even failure. THAT is why they eventually succeed.
They succeed because with each attempt they take, they grow stronger and smarter. As these predators gain experience, they soon learn how to catch their prey using minimal effort on their part because they've done it hundreds, THOUSANDS of times before. Catching their prey is now as easy as catching a cold, and this is due to the fact that they were persistant and perservered even though they previously met failure after failure.
The failures that these predators experienced were LESSONS in disguise. Every failure taught them something they could use on the next hunt. (example: The prey was fast, the predator learned to become faster. The prey was alert, the predator learned to sneak up on it more cautiously. The prey was exceptionally strong, the predator found its weaknesses and beat the motherf*cker down, etc.)
The predators don't have time to fear, show mercy, or hestitate. If they do, another predator will catch the prey they gave up on or they will die from starvation. It's really that simple.
FELLOW DJs, the point is that no matter how much you fail or get rejected, under no circumstances are you to give up. Each rejection/failure will teach you what you need to be doing in order to be successful on your next try. The most important thing you do is take action and learn. Do not worry about rejection/failure, because it WILL happen. Trust me, every great man was once a great failure, but through the years he gained the skills, experience, developed his talents, and learned how to achieve victory by learning from what went wrong in his defeats.
When you take up a challenge such as approaching a girl and you get rejected, DO NOT become sore over the loss. Find out what you did wrong and better yourself for the next sexy biatch that you find appealing. You must train youself to become immune to the feelings of self-pity and discouragement. Remember, there's an infinite number of tastier prey out there and the hunt must go on.
In short: Learn from your mistakes you idiots.
