   Teens and coping with Rejection part 3

   Teens and Dealing with Rejection Part 3 Rejection comes in various kinds of shapes and sizes for teens, and it is something they will experience, it is only a matter of time. From your first crush not crushing back at you, to friends not showing up at your birthday party, losing out on the school sports team and more. All this as we previously stated, will trigger a negative energy -in-motion on our inside. This is why it is important we know ahead of time how best to manage rejection as teens bearing in mind, we are still trying to figure out who we are and how best to manage our energy -in-motion. Last week we started by recommending that we first acknowledge the rejection and call it what it is, no need to give it another name. Name it to tame it! This week, we look at another recommendation which is. 2. Do not allow the rejection to define you, rather grow from the experience. So, let us say you participated for the audition of your school's drama team and after the audition, you were not selected meaning you were rejected. In the words of Shaheensha Hafeez Khan, "It's easy to let external factors define us, especially the unfavorable ones, but only if we let them. Keep fighting & the unfavorable will become favorable". John Maxwell puts it this way, no matter the setback, you must first see value in yourself before you can add value to yourself. Thomas Edison said, " I never failed once at making a light bulb, I just found out 99 ways not to make one". Acknowledge you did not get the role, but the reason is not because you are terrible at acting. No, if you look deeply into the reason it may just be, you were not at your best during the audition, maybe you were a bit sick, or it was an audition for stage play which is going to be in front of a live audience, and your acting skills are more proficient in screen acting which is Infront of a camera. So like Thomas Edison, you are an actor who has just discovered how different both are, and you are going to use this new knowledge to grow from the experience as you continue the journey of discovering your own light bulb in sharpening your acting skills. Self-definition speaks of your entire being, consisting of all your characteristics, attributes, conscious, and unconscious, mental, and physical. Missing a lead role as painful as it may feel, should not define you as a failure, what about all the other aspects of you that you excelled in? It would be good to have a journal where you have defined yourself, stating all your attributes, you can run it by your mum or dad just to be sure you are not over flattering yourself. And the next time you go through any form of rejection, you pick up your journal and remind yourself who you are. This is all for today, thank you for listening 🎧. Regards Uncle Kris ✌️🇳🇬
