Rejection Proof: How I Beat Fear and Became Invincible Through 100 Days of Rejection by Jia Jiang

I read most of this and skimmed the rest (enough that I feel like I can review it). I agree with the premise of this book. We can learn a lot from rejection. I think, though, that the information here would fit better in a TED talk (which Jia gave) or a short article. It wasn't interesting enough for me to read every word.

That said, I was rejected pretty hard earlier this year (grad school) and this book helped me put that rejection into perspective. It certainly contains useful information.

One other random thought: I wonder if Jia Jiang went on a mission. It seems to me from his story that he is a Mormon, but a lot of the ideas he had about rejection were similar to those that I had on my mission while I was experiencing rejection daily, even hourly. I expect that there are many ways to gain these same insights.
