How I Went from Rejected Graduate to High-Ticket Closer
A personal story of transformation and practical lessons you can apply today
Introduction
When I graduated, I thought life would just fall into place. But reality hit hard. I was just following the herd — trying random jobs, feeling lost, and facing rejection after rejection.
I had no big dream, no confidence, and no clue where my career was going.
If you’ve ever felt stuck like that, this blog is for you. I want to share my journey from a rejected graduate to becoming a High-Ticket Closer, closing over 300 deals worth more than ₹1.5Cr, and training 500+ people to build their own success stories.
And more importantly, I’ll share the practical lessons you can start applying today.
The Struggle: Nervous, Rejected, and Lost
After graduation, interviews felt like nightmares.
• I was nervous every time I had to speak.
• Failed in multiple interviews.
• Rejections piled up.
• Self-doubt grew stronger.
I kept asking myself: “Am I even good enough?”
The truth is — I wasn’t lacking intelligence. I was lacking confidence, communication, and direction.
The Turning Point: Getting a Mentor
One day, I decided that enough was enough. I invested in myself and joined several programs, one under Dan Lok — known globally as the King of Closers.
That decision changed everything.
• I learned the art of High-Ticket Closing.
• I studied persuasion, communication, and sales psychology.
• I started reading books and working on my mindset daily.
Slowly, my fear of rejection turned into confidence.
The Transformation: From Struggle to Success
With the right skills and mindset:
✅ I closed 300+ high-ticket deals.
✅ Generated more than ₹2+ Crore in revenue.
✅ Built connections with professionals and leaders I once only dreamed of.
✅ Trained over 500 graduates, helping them escape the same struggle I once faced.
I became living proof that skills change lives.
Practical Lessons You Can Apply Today
Here are 3 lessons from my journey that you can use right now:
1. Invest in Skills, Not Just Degrees
◦ Your degree gets you to the door, but skills get you inside.
◦ Communication, negotiation, and sales are life skills.
2. Find a Mentor or Community
◦ Don’t walk this journey alone.
◦ Learn from someone who has already achieved what you want.
3. Rejections Are Redirections
◦ Every rejection teaches you something.
◦ Instead of asking “Why me?” start asking “What can I learn?”
