Rejection (and reception) - ET

If you try to gain something that someone else is judging you for , then what depends on weather you'll be accepted or rejected is your reception . With Jack Andraka, because he was young , many of the 'receptionists' (as I call them), felt him maybe to inexperienced to sooner him in such a serious field. They'll be feeling very guilty now!
The point is that rejection depends on reception (as shown by the formula: rejection<reception or request-reception=rejection) and if the receptionist is not satisfied, that is that. The strange thing is that it's always illegitimate things people get judged for, like what age they are or when they got there degree of even what height they are. That's what leaves many people at disadvantages.

The most important lesson that can be learnt though is the fact that we must keep on trying, otherwise known as persistence. Even if we do not impress 'receptionists' for some incoherent reason, we must try again (even if it's not 197 times). There are many famous examples of these people. I won't name them all but my personal favourite is Snoopy from the Peanut comic strips by Charles M. Schultz trying to publish a book. He tries again and again but never (as far as I know) succeds. Persistence can be seen in many different forms, but always represents the same thing.
