Put Your Light Out There Despite Rejection

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Realty 0575737

I have always been amazed how each of us is infinitely talented with the gifts we are given yet we ALL can do some real self doubt on ourselves depending on circumstances that happen to us in a day. Particularly the FORCE OF REJECTION. I have learned a coping skill on rejection that works for me and it is simply to laugh it off. You really do need to build up tremendous SELF CONFIDENCE in WHO YOU ARE with your gifts, let go and move on. Without getting into too much of the details (it was related to business) I broke my own record of getting rejected from two hours to 30 minutes, thinking WOW that was fast LOL. But don't fret, know you are the best even if in a numbers game, others might not see it.

But this little electric violinist knows he's the best, and puts ALL HIS LIGHT out there and just sees what he captures.

DO NOT LET REJECTION get you down, just each day be your best, and give the world your very most talented LIGHT.

Hi Gary, that rejection can feel like the end of the world at times. The trick is to have more positive experiences than negative!

Gary-Very good advice. Sometimes easier said than done but we all need more positive in our life vs negative

Another part of this is that what we internalize as a significant rejection frequently is just a hiccup on the other side - nothing devastating intended, nothing even personal -

If you don't put yourself out there, you will never get seen and stay in oblivion.

This brings to mind the Saturday Night live skit...with Bill Handy...I'm good enough , smart enough and boy people like me !! Confidence is king, and not everyone will like you- moving on is great advice.

Rejection can devastate a person . . . . it takes courage to move pass it.

Good luck and success.
