Dealing with rejection can be a very devastating, scary and unpleasant occurrence. However, in life we take many risks with decisions, people, investments, money, etc; and with risk comes the probability that rejection may occur. The reality is you will be rejected at some point in your life and learning how to cope and deal with rejection can be the difference between resilience and future success or unhappiness and becoming stagnant. Here are some common and effective ways to deal with rejection:
1. Be aware of your response to rejection:
Rejection can feel like a huge loss and a big disappointment mostly because you become emotionally attached to the possible outcome and expectations. Therefore, when you are rejected you begin to feel offended and even taken advantage of because you have become attached to an expectation that was not given to you. When rejection is sudden and scary, some people develop the idea that the world is an evil and negative place and that the risk of rejection is not worth the leap of faith. When things do not go the way you expect them to go, you feel devastated, even powerless because of the loss of control.
When responding to rejection we may feel angry, disappointed, sad, embarrassed and vulnerable; but, remember these are common, natural emotional reactions to rejection. Allow yourself to feel these emotions for a little while, acknowledge these emotions and allow yourself to heal. Do not allow yourself to get overtaken by the emotions, but allow them to exist, and then encourage them to pass so that you can rejuvenate yourself and begin to hit the ground running. Sitting in the pain and discomfort is one of the most difficult things to do when we feel rejected. However, most people are so quick to just move on, give up, or give in without allowing themselves to feel. After all, we are humans, so allow yourself a little time to experience these feelings and use them as a platform to perform, strive, and get better.
2. Talk to people you trust
