Our Confession: Does NO Phase Us?
by Andrea Waltz & Richard Fenton

People frequently ask us, "Do the NO's phase you anymore?"

The truth is, nope. They really don't. After 15+ years of helping other people reprogram the way they think about failure and rejection, telling people to get off the 'emotional roller coaster' and not to take things personally... we reprogrammed our minds along the way.

Keep in mind, when we first wrote Go for No!, we didn't do it because we were fearless: we wrote it because we desperately needed the message as much as anyone. But these days no's really don't phase us whatsoever. It's one of the reasons why we continue to have a passion for the message - there is a freedom that you can have with your feelings around 'no.'

Having said that here's the other truth: Do we get upset with our progress, have down days, want to stay in bed and pout, feeling like all the hard work isn't paying off as qucikly as we want? Absolutely! Do we fail? Absolutely - pretty often actually. And we still get plenty of NO's.

Now we're working on a project that when we announce it, will seem to some people like we've completely lost our minds. But, we believe in our message - we believe in failing our way to success. And that requires doing stuff often times that other people are going to think is crazy!

As Steve Jobs said, 

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma -- which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."

NOtable Quotables from the Go for No! Movie

"It's about time that we go from 'No' is bad to 'No' is just fine. You can hear a 'no' and go, OK, well I've heard no, now I might hear yes. The next person might be a 'yes.' If I get fifty NOs I'm right on the cusp! I've got to be turning the corner and getting a 'yes' immediately, if not sooner!" - Honorée Corder

This Month's Trivia Answer

It's the Vieuxtemps Guarnerius, built in 1741 and technically we don't know what it sold for. For the past 50 years it's been privately owned in London, kept mostly under a bed. It was put up for sale with an asking price of $18 million but failed to sell quickly. Earlier this year it finally sold for an undisclosed but it's said - world record amount. The current record was the 'Lady Blunt' Strad, selling in 2011 for $15.9 million. The latest buyer, anonymous, wants it to be used, choosing Anne Akiko Meyers to play for the rest of her life.
