Jacob sits down with Leo Quinn to talk about his Adventures in Rejection. Leo is doing an experiment where he wants to be rejected 1,000 times this summer. Learn more about this experiment and the results it’s bringing. 

Summer of 1,000 NOs

  • Andrea Waltz Author of book Go For No
  • I can achieve EVERY goal and reach EVERY dream by simply hearing NO more often! @GoforNo
  • Leo set a goal to hear 1,000 NOs during the summer. This goal was lofty enough to make him nervous. 

Benefits of getting rejected

  • Increased courage.
  • The more times you ask, you’ll have a greater chance of getting a yes. 
  • You have to experience a lot of failure to get to success. (See our podcast on failure)
  • Leo has made $1,887 from this project so far. $700 of it is monthly recurring revenue.

What’s the time commitment?

  • Leo needs 12 NOs a day to get 1,000 NOs this summer. 
  • It takes him an hour to an hour and a half each day to get those 12 NOs. 

The importance of being human

  • Be REAL with people. 
  • Use humor. Charm Offensive
  • RESPECT other people

If you want to get started

  • Stunt NOs: It doesn’t really matter either way, but it helps you practice.
  • Take a look at https://www.rejectiontherapy.com
  • Rejection Proof Book
  • Volunteer to do cold calling for a charity or something you believe in. 
  • Don’t give yourself a No from someone else.
