Feel free to screw up. Hearing “no'' won't kill you. It might hurt, but it gives you freedom to find the ideal person instead of wasting your time on someone who’s not into it. Celebrate the no’s.  Just do something. Feel the fear and do it anyway. "We often bask in the success without looking at what made it possible. Whereas, when we fall and when we fail, we tend to review what happened to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it before it happens again." —  Jennie Bellinger For the first 500 only, sign up for the webinar
