Statistic

[Carol]

I read a statistic today, that 75% of all world leaders have been abused and have experience severe rejection.

Interesting. I wonder how they go from "severe rejection" to world leadership. I wonder if the rejection actually helped to prepare them somehow for leadership. I guess you can't be a good leader if you can't handle disapproval.

I remember the saying, "That which does not kill me, makes me stronger." Maybe our suffering is not in vain. Maybe something good will come out of it. You never know.

Probably because often people who get rejected like that end up desperately seeking approval. So they need to do something big like go into politics to feel important.
