The reason Im writing this article is simple: revenge.

Im striking a blow for productivity, for my ability to outdo my personal best, and to overcome adversity, even if it comes in the form of gremlins placing pebbles in my shoes.

There is a creep who is dinging me by assigning one star, the lowest rating possible, to my articles at a particular Ezine site.

There are two things that are interesting about this rating:

(1) It always predicts that LOTS of readers are going to be attracted to and are going to devour these pieces; and

(2) That Im on the right track, saying something significant, because at least I have a detractor, a critic, someone who, out of jealousy or inverted admiration feels compelled to take me down a peg.

And heres what I do, instantly, upon seeing this rating: I start yet another article!

This, by the way, is THE ANSWER to handling sales rejection or negative feedback of any kind that tries to slime or spurn you.

Dont ask, Why?

Just say: Next?

Go on to the next prospect and make the next sale, and the poor sap that negated your offer will be blissfully consigned to the dust heap of insignificance.

And if he should pop-up again, what should you do?

Take it as a good sign, that youre on the right track. At least youre in the arena, trying, putting forth your best effort, while he, and the other also-rans are dogging it, while dogging you.

In other words, in selling, writing, or in any endeavor, the best revenge is SUCCESS.

So, USE EVERYTHING to propel you forward!
