JIA JIANG is founder of the popular blog and video series 100 Days of Rejection. His story has been covered by dozens of news outlets, including Bloomberg Businessweek, Yahoo News, the Huffington Post, Forbes, Inc.com, MTV, Gawker, the Daily Mail, Fox News, and CBS's The Jeff Probst Show. A native of Beijing, China, Jiang came to the U.S. as a teenager to pursue his dream of becoming an entrepreneur. Jiang holds an MBA from Duke University and a bachelor's degree in computer science from Brigham Young University.
An entertaining and inspiring account of conquering his fear of rejection, offering a completely new perspective on how to turn a no into a yes.
Jia Jiang came to the United States with the dream of being the next Bill Gates. But despite early success in the corporate world, his first attempt to pursue his entrepreneurial dream ended in rejection. Jia was crushed, and spiraled into a period of deep self doubt. But he realized that his fear of rejection was a bigger obstacle than any single rejection would ever be, and he needed to find a way to cope with being told no without letting it destroy him. Thus was born his "100 days of rejection" experiment, during which he willfully sought rejection on a daily basis--from requesting a lesson in sales from a car salesman (no) to asking a flight attendant if he could make an announcement on the loud speaker (yes) to his famous request to get Krispy Kreme doughnuts in the shape of Olympic rings (yes, with a viral video to prove it).
Jia learned that even the most preposterous wish may be granted if you ask in the right way, and shares the secret of successful asking, how to pick targets, and how to tell when an initial no can be converted into something positive. But more important, he learned techniques for steeling himself against rejection and ways to develop his own confidence--a plan that can't be derailed by a single setback. Filled with great stories and valuable insight, Rejection Proof is a fun and thoughtful examination of how to overcome fear and dare to live more boldly.

不久前的一個上班日早上,朋友在微信上推給我的TED演講,我剛好還沒有開始工作狀態,於是點開看瞭看,15分鍾左右的演講,我深深的被觸動瞭,一度熱淚盈眶,馬上就去YouTube上訂閱瞭作者的視頻,說到戰勝自我,這個概念在非常年幼的時候聽到過姐姐說,是非常難的事情,越長大越...
評分每個人在成長過程中,難免會有被拒絕的經曆,例如嚮喜歡的人錶白被拒絕啊,找工作被拒絕啊……在某種意義上,被拒絕其實就是失敗。 然而,一次失敗並不代錶著永遠的失敗。就像書的名字一樣,沒有永遠的拒絕,你隻是暫時不被接受。老話常談,失敗乃成功之母,隻要不放棄,學著...
評分我覺得我要成事兒瞭。其實自己最大的問題就是害怕被拒絕,這次我覺得找到瞭解決方案。書已經買瞭,明天到,迴頭再翻牆看看視頻。解決瞭這些問題之後我就要起飛瞭,火星見各位。因為害怕拒絕而錯過很多事情,現在剛剛好,ready to fight。到140字纔能發錶我在湊字瞭,還不夠,應...
評分前幾天看瞭《被拒100天》這篇TED演講後,內心被演講者蔣甲的行動和變化觸動,我相信:任何人,隻要真正地去執行瞭被拒100天計劃,都會有巨大的收獲和改變。對此,我深信不已,況且,作者蔣甲把它乾的很有創意、瘋狂,有他自己的特色,同時他開通瞭博客,專門來記錄這整個事情。...
評分原以為這隻是一本類似一百個冷笑話集錦那般,對於一百個拒絕故事進行有趣的情景再現的書,閱讀之後發現其定位並不是博人一笑,以奇人怪事來吸引讀者注意。作者在書中對於“拒絕”進行瞭較為嚴密且專業的研究與數據分析,為我們認識“拒絕”這個詞提供瞭更為客觀和直接的感受。 ...

Before this book, I thought "rejection is a form of guidance." Jia's proven rejection is a piece of muscle. As an introvert, I broke a sweat on going through the journey of 100 days of rejection with Jia, it was an emotional read. One of the best books I've read this year.
評分故事本身我很喜歡,對我很有幫助。閱讀時一直有小學生作文的感覺,沒有用的心理獨白太多,不是很有意思的比喻,還有個人覺得沒有想象力的不好笑的幽默。但是還是覺得作者很勇敢很棒
評分被拒絕所嘗試的點子是蠻有創意的,可是之後的反思很囉嗦,兩句話可以說完的寫成兩頁(所以去看他的ted talk就夠瞭,15min能get到精華瞭),其實總結起來就是多做&不要想太多。被拒絕一次那就真誠地多試幾次;同時你真的很難猜測別人拒絕的原因,所以也不要自己在那糾結瞎想,直接行動起來。另外把很多體驗經歷都強行歸入拒絕這點有些扯。
評分給我一月的傷痛貼個創可貼。作者對於拒絕和say no的恐懼真的跟我一模一樣,就是文中動不動跳齣來的名人名言和例子非常中學生作文感…
評分濃濃一碗雞湯。其實給兩星有點過分,因為我其實從中受益良多。然而實在覺得買書沒有什麼必要,去看作者的Ted Talk就好(值得看的,尤其是我們這種不甘心的社恐)。
