Rejection is an opportunity -- not a negative event. We learn more and gain more from these events. Embrace rejection as an opportunity to grow...


Rejection is commonly known as to be denied, to refuse to accept, submit to, and believe. But its not only that, rejection is the constant let down that makes one feel bad about themselves. For example, lets say Peter has had this crush on this girl for a while, and he finally got the guts to ask her out. When Peter asks her if he could take her to the movies, she laughed at him and said "I would never go on a date with you." After experiencing that rejection, Peter was heartbroken and felt like he never wanted to undergo that feeling of being unwanted again.

There are many different ways of enduring rejection. On the internet, when looking for careers, and even in school. If someone goes through a series of repeating rejection, they might become depressed and start having low self-esteem.

Rejection might not always have a negative impact on someones life though. Some people enjoy being rejected because then they are motivated to be the best they can be so that they do not get rejected again. "Even if you get rejected for something and try again, know that you may still get rejected once again. Life isn't fair, but its not life's circumstances which give you true happiness in the first place."
