- 34:26with
- 34:26this
- 34:27yourself
- 34:27in
- 34:27the
- 34:27past,
- 34:28think,
- 34:28well,
- 34:28I
- 34:29can't
- 34:29join
- 34:29that
- 34:29private

- 34:31that
- 34:31event,
- 34:31I'm
- 34:32not

- 34:33enough.
- 34:33What
- 34:33if

- 34:33catch
- 34:34me
- 34:34out?
- 34:34It's

- 34:39yes,
- 34:40there's
- 34:40that
- 34:40imposter
- 34:41syndrome
- 34:41and
- 34:41there's
- 34:41confidence,
- 34:42confidence
- 34:43thing.
- 34:43But
- 34:43I
- 34:43think
- 34:44there's
- 34:44a
- 34:44bigger
- 34:44piece
- 34:45around
- 34:45rejection.
- 34:46Right.
- 34:47Because
- 34:47nobody
- 34:48wants
- 34:48to
- 34:48be
- 34:48rejected.
- 34:49I
- 34:49can't
- 34:50even
- 34:50tell

- 34:52want
- 34:52to
- 34:52try
- 34:52to
- 34:53talk
- 34:53to
- 34:53someone
- 34:53at
- 34:53an
- 34:54event
- 34:54and
- 34:54they
- 34:55literally
- 34:55walk
- 34:55away.
- 34:56It's
- 34:56happened
- 34:57a
- 34:57couple
- 34:57of
- 34:57times.
- 34:58And
- 34:58I
- 34:58then
- 34:58realized,
- 34:59hang
- 34:59on,
- 35:00ridicule
- 35:01and
- 35:01rejection
- 35:02are
- 35:02the
- 35:02currencies
- 35:03of
- 35:04success.
- 35:05So
- 35:05I
- 35:06just
- 35:06have
- 35:06to
- 35:06keep
- 35:06going.
- 35:07You

- 35:16can
- 35:16network
- 35:17and
- 35:17you

- 35:35yes.
- 35:36And
- 35:36it's
- 35:36nothing
- 35:37personal
- 35:38because
- 35:38sometimes
- 35:39you
