You've got to love this business. You have to be able to take rejection.

So struggling for work here has been very good for me, but it's also been very hard to handle rejection.

I was told to avoid the business all together because of the rejection. People would say to me, 'Don't you want to have a normal job and a normal family?' I guess that would be good advice for some people, but I wanted to act.

Rejection just motivates me to keep trying and to try to do better.

I've had way more rejections than I've had jobs.

I've always hated rejection; I only want to go out there when I know I've got it right.

You're going to have more rejection than acceptance.

In my early career I was like a goldfish. Rejection didn't affect me; I'd just forget how bad it was and keep going back for more.

There is no one thing that can turn around a rejection. But there is one answer: begin talking to your customers who have already bought from you and discover why they bought.

Don't let anyone, or any rejection, keep you from what you want.
