Rejection, Contentment & Happiness


[Submitted by jevoudrais on September 5, 2006, 9:02 pm]

Last August 21, I submitted my application to be a part of the MarkProf Search for the Top 25 Marketing Professionals. This morning, I received the news that I did not make it to the 2nd elimination process. Of course I felt bad because I felt rejected. But then 2 of my close friends made it and I really feel happy for them. I said to myself that its OK if I did not make it. Maybe it's really not for me. Actually I know to myself  that it is not the right path that I should take. After all, my dream is to become a creative director in a reputable advertising agency and I intend to pursue that

No. Matter. What.

This experience taught me that we really cannot have it all. The past few months I've been getting a lot of commendations from my peers and my professors; and different opportunities to enrich myself such as being a part of the team that will represent our University in a National Competition and also being a part of Mobbed (all the new friends that I have here? Hell yeah!). I have never been this happy and contented for a very long time now, so I really have no reason to be down and I know that I have to be really thankful. To God and To All of You Who

Always. Brighten. Up. My. Day.

Hey! Just bear in mind that even the best fall down sometimes. :) Just fight & never surrender... With a little perseverance you can get things done...
