Importance of Rejection

[Pikiboy]

Been rejected is not an easy experience one should face or pass through, therefore if you have been in such condition before guys you will know the reality of life is not all about I cook finish come and eat
One thing I learned from this rejection is that it will build your hope and make an individual stand out confidence is the most important thing every individual need in the condition of rejection once you are confident in yourself then light shine's in.

I agree with most of your points but I don’t know about rejection boosting one’s confidence. In my opinion, it’s the opposite. One thing I’m certain of is that rejection can build resilience. When you get that “unfortunately” email, but you press on again and again. That’s resilience. Confidence comes much later when you have experienced small wins.

Rejection is very important, it helps us to change our lives. When we get rejected in something important, many people lose confidence in themselves from the inside, but in fact, if we lose confidence, it is never possible to grow. After being rejected, we have to build ourselves stronger and change our mindset. We have to focus on the reasons for the rejection and learn from it, gain knowledge and increase experience.

Rejection teaches us to build ourselves harder for the next time, respond back and one day be successful. The things you have highlighted will definitely help a rejected person manage his life better and reach the goal of success in the future. So we should not give up, but if we get rejected in any work, then first solve those mistakes well and later learn with skills and experience, then we will be able to reach a better level in the future.

Rejection is one of those experiences that hurts in the moment but quietly does important work beneath the surface If you choose to learn from it. It forces reflection, exposes gaps we may have ignored, and pushes us to reassess our approach to life. If you handle rejection well, it will become a form of feedback rather than just failure. Over time, repeated rejection will build resilience and clarity. It toughens you mentally, sharpens your decision-making, and often redirects you toward paths better suited to your strengths. What will feel like a setback at first can end up being the reason you grow faster, think smarter, and show up stronger the next time the opportunity comes around.

It takes courage to reject so we have to be able to control it because not everything goes according to what we want so it is important to have self-control and be able to do whatever we like, but in my opinion if we have the courage to reject then we also have to be ready to be rejected, that is the reality in life and we have to understand that.

I get your point.
Rejection is important in the process for growth and success, but I don't think it builds confidence, it comes with a wave of over thinking, that helps you recollect to discover your shortcomings and help you prepare better for next time.
Most importantly it drastically improves ur seriousness.

Yes, to understand the reality of human life, one must be confident and have the courage to control oneself. When you are rejected in any of your work, you have to control yourself more patiently and later you have to focus on that subject well. Your courage will definitely help you to control yourself. If you are rejected, then later on, your interest in that work increases so that he can solve the mistakes due to which he was rejected. However, in any case, every person has to have courage to be realistic and keeping self-control is the most important thing.

We all understand how hard it is to take rejections but I believe in life they are some importance and positive sides of rejection that most people fail to realize. Most people tend to give up, loose hope, become scared and have low self esteem when rejected. But I believe after most of you come across this thread, you will never feel too bad when rejected

Here are some few importance/ positive sides of rejection:

1. Self realization : Rejection helps you realize yourself in terms of making you know where you’re lacking or where you are making mistakes and help you do better in those specific areas.

2. Growth: Rejection helps you to learn and at the process of learning, you tend to attain growth.

3. Discovery of path: Rejection helps discover or redirect you to a new path or an opportunity, which you would have missed if you were not rejected.

4. Adaptability: Rejection helps you adapts to new challenges hereby making you resilient and stronger to bounce back and take on new challenges.

5. Strategic: Rejection makes you become a strategic thinker I.e it helps you become more strategic in anything you are doing, in order for improvement and more crucial ways to do better.

6. Confidence: Rejection actually makes someone build confidence i.e you know you’ve once failed and want to try again because you know you can do better thereby helping you boost confidence.

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.

Being rejected is an experience no body want to be involved in no matter how light it is, this can also lead to depression if the person involve has low self esteem. 
It's causes beterness in the mind of the rejected that leads to anger, hatred towards others.
If this is not taking care of, may result to inability to try new things, because the person will fill nothing good can come out of.
The fear of what and how people will see handle matters concerning him or her can make them not to share the opinions

A person that's scared of rejection will not be curious in trying new things because, the first thing that will come to their minds is "what if I get rejected?".

That's such a scary thought in a person's mind because you're already thinking of things firstly without even trying it.

There is no need to be scared of rejection. At first, getting rejected is normal but that's part of growing and we'll get used to it.

Rejection is one of the most uncomfortable experiences we face, yet it’s also one of the most powerful teachers in life.Its in your hands,and you have the power to let it bend you or build you.Rejection builds direction, and resilience.Though rejection is not the end of the road;it’s feedback,redirection,and preparation.It produces the clarity that helps you grow instead of remaining in obscurity and if you listen carefully,it doesn’t break you,it builds you.

Honestly, to be rejected isn't easy but I see it as a strong lesson and how you handle it matters alot and that's in your hand, it's can build you at same time discourage you. But most time been rejected  give you direction and clarity.

And that don't mean it's end of the road for rather it's just a means of redirecting back to your lane and if you listen it won breaknyou down rather it's just a means of building and preparing you on what is ahead of you .

Rejection hurts amd so many great people have gone through reject which had made them stronger than what they were before.
Rejection is a way that strengthen people to become tough in every decisions they have to make in life. Those people that have not passed through rejection might not know the pain that is received from people that that show them pepper due to their misfortunes.
Life has so many problems to show us and we don't have to see that like a threat to our wellbeing. Good and bad times will come and we should not feel bad about it.

This is a very important topic that a lot of people need to read. rejection can be very a very painful experience but most times it is a wake up call needed to be able to do better. people do not take rejection the right way, it is something that is supposed to make you self reflect and also work on yourself. rejection shouldn’t be a course to be depressed but it is a reminder that you should improve on yourself

6) Confidence: If you haven't been rejected once or twice you wouldn't know the importance of building self confidence. A lot of people easily give up today because growing up they got everything easy and they have never had to be rejected before getting what they want but your experience will teach you of the need to build yourself, trust that you can get better at what you were told you can't do and the need to do it again even when you failed countless times, rejection is part of the things that helps you discover who you are and the power you have if you don't give up.

Rejection makes us realize how valuable we are that discouragement has no place in our lives.

Instead, we should keep moving forward and go out from our comfort zone, so that when we want to venture into something new, the confidence and bravery are there, that any rejection will not matter at all as its one way of helping us how suitable and skillful we are on certain things.

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.

Personally I believe there is no useless person in this world even those who are mentally ill because the universe can still use anyone to fulfill a purpose that the human mind may not fully understand. So for me I think rejection do mean many things, it can be positive or negative and it is up to the person who is rejected to understand it and adjust their life accordingly.

One thing that is certain to me is rejection is never going to be the end of of the world. So as a person whenever you face rejection, don't even get to waste your energy dwelling too much on it, just take it as for every closed door, there is always another one open nearby.

Sometimes that hurt isn't growing into wisdom. Sometimes it just sits there. You are right that rejection teaches, but I am thinking you are skipping over the part where it also just hurts.

It has to do with individual differences on how you view what happened.

It will hurt cause of the disappointment you will feel for not having things go your way, but when you take it as rejection you will not find growth from it giving all reasons to your rejectors to conclude they made the right decision,

but if you take it as a challenge, you will work on yourself and grow above where you presently stand that those who rejected you will either regret for rejecting you when they recognise the advancement you have made.

Learning to accept rejection is important. Also it shows how mature you are in a situation like this, based on how you accept and handle rejection. Though it's okay to be sad when being rejected but after that, we can look on the positive side and see it as "redirection". If you got rejected on something, it means you're meant for something else. It could be even better and greater that what you're looking for now.  You just have to continue what you're doing and work on improving yourself cause when you kept the negativity when you get rejected, you'll just get stuck on your current situation and won't be ab to look forward. This is how life is. When you get rejected, your life doesn't just end there, it still goes on.

Weirdly, I can say that I have not been rejected that many times in my life. In most jobs that I applied, I actually got the job, never been unemployed for more than a month in my life, hell I even married my wife at early age, we just courted and got married, it was love at first sight, so I did not live a period of rejection from women neither.

I personally feel lucky in this regard, so I have no clue what people do when they are rejected, but I am guessing that "things I did not want to happen, ended up happening" is a similar feeling and it just matures you. Sometimes the ones who reject you are wrong for doing t, always remember that, but sometimes they are right and you need to improve and do better job to not get rejected next time.

[Vaculin]

Rejection is not meant to make you feel down and frustrated, but rather its one way of saying this isn't your perfect timing yet, and instead of thinking that its one way another failure, but its a clear redirection that will lead you to your right path in the future.

In fact, constant rejection will mold you to the best version of you. Because you will realize that what you have shown aren't the best yet, and you are still on your discovery to show the best of what you can give.

I reckon that it's a great molder to show and put the best of us. But others can't take it like that, they're dwelling in the negativity of it and that's why the best version of themselves can't get out. They're taking it as if it's a lost battle and they have to give up. No giving up for someone who's longing for the success of their lives. Because the best and successful people are gladly going to share how they've failed for so many times. If that doesn't still motivate the starters, they will realize it soon with their own timelines and battles in life.
