Lisa Valerie Kudrow, actress, comedian, writer, and producer, after making appearances in several 1980s television sitcoms, Kudrow came to international prominence in the 1990s portraying Phoebe Buffay in the American sitcom Friends, which earned her Primetime Emmy and Screen Actors Guild awards.
Well we all know that she played the role as Phoebe Buffay on Friends for years. But very few know initially she landed a role on the show, Frasier, from which she was fired which actually gave her the opportunity to be in Friends. Can you imagine that if she never got fired, where would she be now?
We can list hundreds and thousands of stories where the failures have resulted in producing the world’s best performing people in any given sector.
When things go wrong, we think everything is over. Well that truly is just a new beginning. Don’t put yourself down with failures, rather hold your breath and keep your head straight up.
A rejection, a failure, a door closed is not the end of the world for you. Sometimes it can be the best thing that ever happened to us. You could have been rejected by many companies saying that you have not got enough experience. Sometimes they would have told you that you are too young to hold this position, or sometimes they would have told you that you are too old to hold this position or people would have told you that the job market is too saturated. But just don’t be too bothered about all these things.
Take that in this way, opinions are just opportunities for growth, so be grateful and do it anyway that is best. A rejection stops you from settling for less than you deserve. As it is universally accepted, a failure is the way of saying, stop focusing on less, but dream big and work out tirelessly. Never leave any space to use your weaknesses or never allow weaknesses to hold you for a ransom, instead use your strengths, let it be your stepping stone of success. Spend your day in planning, then the risk of failure can be minimized, you can avoid many embarrassing moments.
Don’t be sad that it did not work out. Be GRATEFUL it did not work out. There is a day for you, on which the whole world will appreciate you. So be grateful that you have got an opportunity right now, let us put our whole hearted effort to win the world for us.
