When You Are Not Selected And Do Not Win
The Two Options That Are Presented To You
I like to Win.
I think it is a Part of Human Nature.
That Sense of Accomplishment...
Especially when it Occurs in an Arena that You are Passionate About.
Whether it is a Victory through Skill, like a Race...
Or the Victory of Being Chosen to Participate In or Win Something...
We have this Deep Desire to Win.
But Here’s the Thing...
There are Over 8 Billion People on the Planet.
Many are Extremely Talented...
A Large Number Put that Talent to Work...
And Not Everyone Can Win.
I Recently Sought to Be Selected for a Program.
My Hope was that I would be able to Leverage the Participation in this Program for a Few Things...
To Inspire People to their Potential...
To Prove that Others can Accomplish Amazing Things...
And I wanted to Use this Opportunity to Kickstart a Passion Project of Mine to Honor the Memory of My Friend.
In Many Ways...
It was a Program that I “Really” Wanted to Participate In.
Over 5000 Applied...
And at the End of It...
I was Not Selected to Participate.
It Hit Hard because of How Much I Desperately Wanted to Participate in the Program.
But Guess What...
I Was Not Selected...
Why?
I Could Not Tell You For Certain.
There were Likely Many Incredible People who Applied.
Perhaps I Did Not Present Myself Well Enough.
Perhaps the People who are Running the Program were Looking for Something that I Could Not Provide.
Maybe they People who were Choosing ran into the Psychological Challenge of Decision Fatigue and Overlooked Me.
It could Be Any Number of These, Combination of These, or Other Factors that I am Unaware Of.
Am I Upset?
Yes.
Disappointed.
Absolutely.
But Here’s the Question...
What Do You Do When You Are Not Selected?
Here’s the Truth...
A Large Part of the Reason I have had the Success that I have had in Life...
Is Because I Went for Many Opportunities...
Most of Which I Was Not Selected For.
I have Been Dismissed...
Overlooked...
Judged...
And Failed....
So Many Times in My Life that I have Lost Count.
When You are Not Selected...
When You Do Not Win...
There are a Two Options that You Have.
You Can Give Up...
Or You Can Keep Going.
Struggle to Accept that You have Lost and Allow that to Consume You...
Allow the Shadows of this Failure to Define You...
Even Perpetually.
This is Where 98% of People will Fall when it Comes to Their Dreams.
Or...
You Keep Going...
You Get Back Up...
You Find Another Way...
You Decide to Define Your Own Future...
However Long It Takes...
No Matter How Many Times You are Knocked Down...
And Prove to Everyone that they Missed the True Winner.
I Have Chosen...
And Always Will Chose...
To Keep Going.
You want to Hear What is Awesome Though...
I already have Another Opportunity to Push Forward this Passion Project of Mine...
If I had Been Drowning and Struggling to Accept the Fact that I was Not Chosen for this “One” Opportunity...
I Might have Missed this New Opportunity.
You Never Know How Quickly a New Opportunity Will Present Itself...
So You Must Always Be Prepared.
Will I Win this New Opportunity?
I Hope So...
But Regardless, it Does Not Matter because I will Keep Going...
Step by Step.
Until I Complete My Goal.
I Encourage You...
That If You have Missed an Opportunity...
If You have Not Been Selected...
If You Did Not Win...
Do Not Give Up.
Get Back Up...
Keep Moving Forward...
Again and Again...
Until You’re Selected and Win.
