Do Not Be Afraid Of Rejection, Find Out Why!
Rejections are painful, right? There are some people who fears rejection simply because it hurts and it feels like you are somewhat downgraded.
That's how I feel every time I get rejections. Good news is, there is a way that we could fight this.
Back in the late 1970, Apple was shining as bright as it would. With Apple selling Personal Computers, it managed to earn a profit and started the computer business.
Unfortunately not all that shines is gold. In the 1980, Apple began to face hardships. Competitions grew and Apple was not safe from it. IBM took nearly half of Apples market.
Jobs effort to turn things around was not that successful. After having introduced newer products against the competition, it just did not attract the market.
Jobs and the company was in big trouble. With unbelievable turn of events, Apple kicked out Steve Jobs as CEO. Could you believe it? The very person who grew Apple got kicked out by his own company.
Jobs did not stop there. He created his own company named NeXT, unfortunately the company did not make enough money to keep the company afloat. Jobs instead changed the focus from hardware to software.
AND he also focused on his other company, PIXAR. Amid all the hardships, PIXAR struck a deal with WALT DISNEY and came out with the first animated film ever, TOY STORY. It was 4 years in the making.
Toy Story was a huge success not only in film but also financially. Everything was going right for Jobs. The next thing you know, Apple bought NeXT from Jobs and reinstated Jobs as CEO of Apple.
The rest is history, Apple created it flagship devices. The IPOD, IPAD and the ever famous IPHONE.
Friends, are you facing rejection right now? Have you just been rejected? It could be that you got rejected by your dream job, you got rejected by your prospect or you got rejected by someone who you are courting.
Do not get discouraged! Rejection is one way of God's redirection in your life! If Steve Jobs did not experience all of those, would we have the IPhone?
When you are rejected, it means that something better is coming your way. It means that what you want now is not the best. God has something else for you, something bigger in store for you!
For single people, not going right? Don't worry, it means that someone better and even more good looking is coming our way!
Failing in business? Don't worry, something better and bigger will come your way!
Remember, rejection is one way of God's redirection. Every time you get rejected means that something bigger and better is coming your way!
God bless you always!

Turn a Deaf Ear to People Who Speaks Against You
We all have dreams and we want to reach them so badly, unfortunately it is not an easy road to take. When ever we want to succeed, trials and obstacles will always be in our way. That includes a lot of negative comments from people, even hating you for doing what you are doing - in other words, these are the noise that we hear against us.
Long, long ago, a man loved singing so much that he kept singing everywhere he goes. Kidding aside, this man really loved to sing. He recorded his songs for his mother and the songs just stayed with his mother.
Not long after, he auditioned for a local quartet, unfortunately he failed and just went home.
"What happened? How did it go son?" asked the father.
"I did not make it. They told me I could not sing." replied the son.
He was basically turned down because his vocals did not bring harmony to the ear of others, basically his singing was so different.
He became a truck driver just so money could be placed in his pocket but he still have singing in his mind. A music company just opened and was looking for a vocalist. This young man did not waste any time and headed straight to the company to audition.
Unfortunately after the audition, he was turned down immediately. He was told to GO BACK BEING A TRUCK DRIVER and he was also given a painful advise:
"Just stick to driving son because you are not going to make it as a singer."
He was under fire, no one at that time liked how he sing. He was rejected, he was ridiculed, turned down, people had a lot of bad things to say about him.
But he did not give up, he kept on doing what he loved and thought right, he just kept on singing and singing and singing until the day came. Someone actually took him as the lead vocalist. And one day, he became who the world knew, ELVIS PRESLEY.
He just ignored all the noise that people was saying against him and he became a huge success.
Are you under fire right now? Are there people who hates you and tells bad things about you because you are doing things that you need to reach your dreams?
IGNORE THE NOISE! If you want to be successful, you don't have to listen to every single person just to please them, specially if that person themselves have not reached success.
Listen to your mentors instead, to people who already reached success and has paid the price. Listen to the people who are already way ahead of you.
Don't try to please everyone because we can't. Just like Elvis Presley, if he had listened to the advise and just went back to truck driving, he would not have reached this much success, even after death.
Keep doing the right thing. You will be successful!
God bless you!

When You Fall, Get Up and Keep Moving Forward
We have to admit, there are a lot of times that we just want to throw in the towel. There are times that we tell ourselves that we cannot do it, that we're a goner. In fact, there are times that I just wanted to give up on a certain dream.
As he was trying to invent the light bulb, he had experienced a lot of failed experiments. On some resources, after 1000 experiments, the light bulb was STILL not invented. A reporter came to Edison and asked, "How does it feel to fail 1000 times?" Edison replied "We have not failed, we just found out 1000 things that would not work.".
Keep Moving Forward!
After all, we are human beings and we feel. Right after feeling, we must act. Do not get stuck on the feeling alone, we must be in motion too!
But I did not stop because I know something great will happen soon and I believe good things happen to those who wait and do the hard work.
Thomas Edison

Even after failing, Edison moved on and still tried to create the light bulb. He just kept going and going until the light bulb was created.
Imagine if Edison stopped at experiment #999, would we ever have the light bulb? We might be using candles now if Edison had stopped!
Keep Moving Forward!
Have you ever failed and found it hard to move on? Well keep on moving forward. Once you fail, it will hurt and the memory of it will linger on but amid having those, just keep moving forward. How to do it? Just do it! Once you fail, feel the pain, cry, sulk, get angry but after that, leave it all behind and just keep moving forward.
Got a break up? Cry, feel the pain and after that, if nothing goes right, just keep moving forward. Financial downturn? Feel the pain, get angry, worry a little, after that, move forward and do what you must to solve the issue.
Do you want to reach your dreams? Drive success? Have the best relationship? Financial freedom? Successful family life? Just keep moving forward and do not give up and as you keep moving forward you will get your reward! Edison had his light bulb and you will get your dreams!
You'll never know that you are that close in reaching your dreams so just keep moving forward!
You'll never know that you are that close in reaching your dreams so just keep moving forward!
Just like this picture.
God bless you!
