So I’m still keeping and believing in my mantra “Opportunity is coming MY way” but yesterday I heard back from the agency that I met with about a month ago, I was not chosen. They told me they were going to take a pass this time around. It sucks, and yes I feel devastated and disappointed, but I’m not allowing myself to get too worked up about it. Instead, I’m looking into new opportunities and staying hopeful. Yesterday afternoon and night I allowed myself to feel pissed and disappointed, but now I’m looking into new possibilities and staying hopeful about the future. Opportunity and opportunities ARE coming my way. I still believe in ME. I have a meeting this Friday with my regular agency and I plan on pushing them to send me to more print/editorial castings. I know I can do this. I’m in great shape, feel confident, and just want to find some success! Its so important to stay hopeful and keep a positive attitude after rejection. Everybody faces it, and in the modeling industry rejection is huge. Being rejected allows you to start fresh and create a new you and new beginning. Thats exactly what I’m going to do. Instead of getting down about being rejected, feeling sad and depressed, I’m pushing myself to stay positive and hopeful. Don’t ever give up on your dreams, keep pushing yourself and others to succeed if you know you can do it. You have the power to feel the way you feel, and you also have the power to control your life. Now I’m taking control of my life. I have a new beginning, clean slate and I’m ready to pursue it! If there is something you want, make it happen. Nothing happens if you don’t do or push yourself. Keep pushing forward with an upbeat attitude and good thing will eventually happen, maybe not when/where you intend them to happen, but when one door of opportunity closes another door will open for you at some point. Radiate love, positivity, peaceful, and go getter outlook onto your life. You can do this, and I can do this too. Don’t let the rejections get you down. Repeat your mantra (whatever it may be) and push yourself to be the best of your abilities in order to conquer and keep developing your dreams.
