When you’ve faced rejection and setbacks, take comfort from this. My SUMO book was rejected by 13 publishers. It went on to becoming a Sunday Times Bestseller. In September, the 20th anniversary edition was published. Today a client sent this photo from Gatwick airport.

You’re frustrated now — but ask yourself: “Will this matter in 6 months?” 🤔 If the answer’s no, don’t give it today’s peace. 💭✨ #professor #author #sumo #thesumoguy #motivational

The first SUMO book was rejected 13 times. Today, it’s been translated into 13 languages. Persistence beats perfection — every time. Rejection isn’t the end. It’s just part of the journey. #professor #author #sumo #thesumoguy #motivational

Have you ever had an issue with an insurance company? ‘Oh, yes’, I hear you cry. Are their staff incentivized to delay processing a claim for as long as possible? They’re quick to get our premiums but slow to payout. If you agree, remember to say ‘oh yes’.
