@joebradford I think part of learning how to be a man is being afraid of rejection but asking anyway. Another part of being a man is handling rejection gracefully. I would almost suggest to test a person's character, reject them first and see how they respond. Insults and anger is a red flag

@joebradford الخوف من الرفض أضاع علينا الكثير من الفرص .

@joebradford My father taught me that too. And it’s brought so much unexpected good in my life. Alhamdillah for fathers

@joebradford Just got an application rejected and it hurts...but at least I can learn from the process. Needed this reminder. JAK :-)

@joebradford Saving it in my memo. Golden words.

@joebradford Well said... Good piece👌🏽💯

@joebradford Alhamdulelah,sounds like a really wise & straightforward man.

@joebradford I wrote a poem I follow and share with my mentees around taking chances In life If you never ask you’ll never know The best be a YES The worst maybe a NO It matters that you did not let that chance GO You asked & got to KNOW The YES or the NO

@joebradford What’s best for you may not be from a YES or a NO Let the journey of life take its course Speak your truth go with the flow

@joebradford My late #father taught me how to keep on trying

@joebradford @SaifulBariAMU that's what I wanted to say
