We still have choices...

Recently a group of people tried to steal my joy. After the shock wore off, I got angry then out of the blue yesterday three people reached out to me to share their exact same experience with me. They asked me how I deal with it when rejection happens. Never let someone steal your joy amd realize the situation was beyond your control. The only thing we can contol is how we REACT to the situation. My advice to them - let it go, never forget, and realize something better is coming in for you. Oh and DON'T TAKE IT PERSONALLY. Of course, in the line of work we do, how can you not take rejection personally? I reminded them, it is our reaction to the rejection which will lead to or hender our chances for future work. The only consolace was to not forget what was done to you and by whom and to know that it can happen at any time. In this industry is is a 98% guarantee you will run into those people again. Somehow that was very thereputic for me and for them.

Choose to let it go but don't forget the people and how they made you feel.

Happy Thursday! :)
