Daily Success Stories from ILLUMINATION

Rejections May Hurt But…

1718 ILLUMINATION writers are illuminating 14,827 readers!

When you’re following your inner voice, doors tend to eventually open for you, even if they mostly slam at first. — Kelly Cutrone

One of the common sentiments shared by writers is rejection. I have empathy and compassion for writers who experience rejection in their career path. Rejection is a difficult emotion to manage. Many successful people taste rejection. I experienced rejection in all walks of my life. The way I deal with rejection is to re-frame it and not take it personally.

People or organizations set criteria which are not necessarily compelling for life. Not meeting specific criteria does not mean we are not good enough. We simply do not meet their standards. We may, paradoxically, have higher standards. In my recent conversations, two main concerns raised by writers were about being rejected by some publications, and their stories were not being curated. These two rejections are tasted by many writers. Despite all, some writers not only survive but also thrive.

I know reputable writers, with fascinating stories, were rejected, but self-confident writers do not see them as show-stoppers. They acknowledge, accept, and move on. There are many options and means in life that we can convey our valuable messages.

In the big schema of things, these are not real issues. As writers, we have a much more important mission in our lives. In my humble view, it is more valuable and satisfying to touch readers’ intellect, heart, and soul authentically than to be published in a reputable publication or shown on the front page of a platform. With this simple re-framing, rejection can energize us and focus on what matters in life. I learned that rejection was the caffeine for entrepreneurs.

As worst case scenario and for a practical approach, you can consider an interesting view from Jeanette Winterson who pointed out: “I am good at walking away. Rejection teaches you how to reject.”
