Choosing Yourself

If you ever wonder why they didn’t choose you, especially after you felt great about how it went (e.g. the audition, the job interview, etc.), then think about all the times you, yourself, got excited about something (e.g. an idea for a business, a story, a new project, a goal, etc.), and didn’t follow through on that initial burst of enthusiasm.

The truth is, there are a million reasons why they didn’t choose you. Most often it has nothing to do with how it went or you or the quality of your work. It has to do with a lot of factors that are beyond your control.

Be proud of yourself that you went for it. You put yourself out there. You risked. You were vulnerable.

And then get back to the hard, yet ultimately so much more fulfilling work, of choosing yourself.
