Feeling Dejected after Your 99th “No” in Fundraising?

Feeling dejected after your 99th “no” in fundraising? Use this simple mental trick to boost your resilience!

Instead of wishing, hoping, and praying for “yes”, flip the situation around, and tell yourself that your goal is to get to a “no” with each pitch.

Of course, you want a “yes,” but the reality is that you’re going to hear “no” much more than “yes.”

By reframing your objective, each rejection simply becomes a stepping stone to getting that elusive “yes” at the end of the line.

So aim for the “no,” and pave your way to a “yes.”
