Everyone in the world has had an encounter with a person who said something nasty about a project. Desolate, we wander, asking, "How do I get a thicker skin?"

I'm here to say that you don't need a thicker skin. Your thin skin is a gift. Thin skin is why we have a five day work week, why we have child labor laws, and the Society to Prevent Cruelty to Animals. Thin skin means you see something wrong and you go fix it. It is what allows us to live with passion and the power to change the world. Our thin skin is what gives our dreams power, emotion, and importance. Our concern for the state of the world and each other is the greatest motivator and the foundation of all we do.

But. Rejections still hurt. Life is hard and it comes at you fast. This booklet has real-world, concrete steps you can use to cope with the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
