Importance of Rejection

[Obulis]

I believe this few point will be able to help us to try again after being rejected and i hope there are also more contributions that will be added to this for everyone to learn.

This is really important especially on a job market with high competition. I also experienced a lot of rejection during my first job hunt, and it actually led me to try a different career path. There were a lot of realizations along the way, but I'm glad that I didn't get discouraged, and I'm actually thankful that it happened because it brought me to where I am today.

Rejection is actually a redirection for more healthier job and even relationship. Being matured enough to handle rejection will help in keeping courage while walking on the new path. Rejection should be seen as a chance to try again not as the end.

Rejection is like failure so it is something that is certain to exist in our lives and we cannot force someone to accept us, rejection must be accepted and must be a motivation for introspection that within us there may be shortcomings that are not worthy of doing something/getting something, but we must not be discouraged and we must remain optimistic that we must be able to develop and be better so that we can be accepted on another occasion, I am quite confident that Mcdonald's was not immediately accepted by the community at the beginning, or Cocacola is not accepted directly by the public, there is a phase where we have to gain public trust and recognition.

I think everyone has experienced it at some point, especially in the world of work, where competition is currently very intense. We must look at every rejection from a positive perspective, meaning that through rejection we become aware of our own weaknesses, rather than feeling discouraged or unlucky. With an attitude of acceptance, we can more easily improve ourselves and learn to develop our skills in order to achieve our desired goals.

In business, rejection is highly dependent on buyer interest. We must learn to understand what they need and what they want. I think this is part of the initial strategy before someone starts their business.

Rejection is never a bad thing but it depends on the reason for the rejection. Personally, I believe there is no useless person in the world even those who are mad/mentally ill, because the universe can still direct/use them to carry out an important task which the ordinary human mind cannot fully comprehend or understand.


So to me, I would say rejection can mean a lot of things, and whatever it means can either be on the positive or negative side of life, it's then up to the person who was rejected to know this and know how to adjust his life. But one thing that is sure is that rejection isn't the end, sometimes it's just a way of the universe saying "you can do better", so when ever you are rejected on anything, don't dwell on that, because for every closed door, there is a door that is open beside it.

But I believe after most of you come across this thread, you will never feel too bad when rejected

Even if you know the many benefits of getting rejected, you will still feel bad, because we are just humans who try to fit in. It's okay to feel bad, as long as you know how to pick yourself up and improve next time. The greatest minds have also suffered rejection, and no human has not.
Being rejected and moving on is a sign that you are responsible and in control of your destiny, so we have to embrace rejection; it's part of us.
