Handling Rejection
Greetings all active Steemians, i'm happy to be part of this contest organized by @Ihorgic " Handling Rejection "
●What do you understand by the word "Rejection"?
Rejection to my understanding is the act of turning down or unacceptance.it could be in terms of withholding affection towards a person, renouncing, refusing an offer etc. It could extend to a person's social life.
●Share with us your Rejection Experience and How you handled it?
Rejection is everyone's experience at some point. My was so demotivated, but after that i had to move ahead in life because i trust God first and i always turn to Him. While i was in University, my course mate gave me success Charm to use and write Examination and pass But i Rejected it and he said "let me see how you will write Examination and succeed in this school" which i replied "Jesus, i believe you are enough for my life and Destiny" when the result came out i had A while he had carryover. After that he later gave he's life to Christ.
I see rejection as part of life, if you are living a life free from Rejection,you are doing something in life wrong. Some years back, i went with a friend for an interview, i was Rejected base on my outfit. When i came in one of the interviewer's said, this one as nothing to offer and after all their questions which i answered correctly i didn't get the Job so I was disheartened i accepted what happened i learned from that experience. That day, i was so down and the pains plus disappointment make me feel sick but after that, i at grown that experience by accepting and not judging myself about what happened there and went out talking with few friends.
●Were there lessons learnt, Kindly share with us and Encourage others going through Similar experience?
1.Maintain Quality Spirituality which is the foundation for your Destiny. Your root in God determines your height in life. Always ask God for discernment in choices of friends. I could have had carryover if i didn't rejected the bad offer that was given to me by my course mate to use and write Examination.
2.Live on purpose. A life of No purpose is a life of No profit because where life is without a bearing it becomes a burden. I can't let what i don't have now become a burden to me because i have purpose and i will always make profit.
3.Develop your potentials/Skills improvement. Your gift determines your life,your potential is your vehicle to your destination so don't Neglect your life after the interview that i was rejected of the Job, i went back and work on myself base on my outfit,looks,Skills and knowledge and later then i had another Job which throughout my stay in the establishment, i did well.
4.Stay focused. One that is focused in life is always the Cornerstone"JESUS"was rejected and he became the cornerstone(Acts 4 vs 11)with Jesus, as your foundation, we too are resurrected after rejection like Him. So trust Him and always put Him first.
If you are facing rejection, is not the end of ur life. Wakeup be creative,u have Jesus in you. Trust Him for help and Surround yourself with people who talk about Visions, ideas and dreams and not these who talks about other people.
Am glad you could stand for Jesus in the face of absolute rejection. Thanks for your participation, I wish you the very best.
Thank you.
