And they learn from those failures and get better next time round and are stronger from just accepting the failure as part and parcel of the job and not a big issue each time that has to be mulled over endlessly. It's that mulling over that is destructive. If you put the energy spent being destructive into something creative, success will follow when you're not even expecting it. I spent my whole life trying to get this through to my mother and still failed and she died an unhappy, miserable person with no self esteem whatever. A cautionary tale. The success of one's future career is not determined by the first few moments. God, I set myself on fire the first day I worked in a laboratory and I ended up Producton Manager. I just learned very quickly that burners cause fires and moved on! Keep pitching, keep creating and success will find you. You know you have talent and talent ALWAYS outs. xx Of course they do because they’re up for more in the first place.
