Rejections- Nicholas

Being rejected feels horrible. I think that people who persist will achieve their goal but it takes time, Colonel Sanders did an amazing job as he went to 1009 doors after which being rejected each time and finally on the 1010th door Pete Harman partnered with him and they launched the first "Kentucky Fried Chicken" site in 1952. Although being rejected can make you feel sad it often turns out to be character building after all we can't all be winners all of the time. "A rejection is nothing more than a necessary step in the pursuit of success." quoted Bo Bennett. I think that Jack Andraka (age 15) had an amazing idea for testing cancer as it will save the lives of many people. He is also very persistent, it took him 197 tries before he got his method of diagnosing cancer accepted.

My rejection was when I didn't make my cricket club colts team, but I'm not worried because I like and enjoy the sport.
