This week, we are talking about one of the least favorite experiences of almost every human being on the planet – REJECTION. Lawyers are especially averse to rejection because it feeds their other “favorite” thing in the world – catastrophizing. In other words, lawyers hate rejection because they can’t help but imagine all the worst case scenarios that could follow from it.
On this episode of The Lawyer Stress Solution, we’re taking a look at why lawyers are so sensitive to rejection and why it hurts so much. I explain what rejection really is and what you can do to lessen its impact. Listen in to find out how you can begin rewiring your brain to stop always looking for rejection and instead create feelings of security, safety, and stability.
