Most fears of rejection rest on the desire for approval from other people. Don't base your self-esteem on their opinions.

one look is worth ten thousand words

Your workforce is your most valuable asset. The knowledge and skills they have represent the fuel that drives the engine of business - and you can leverage that knowledge.

Good intentions aren't enough. People have good intentions when they set a goal to do something, but then they miss a deadline or other milestone.

Other people's opinion have no impact on your self esteem unless you allow it.
