Humans Fail, Losers Quit - Part 7 #FamousFailures

Steven Spielberg was rejected from film school three times.

How do you handle rejection? If this famous failure quit after he was turned down, we wouldn’t have fun movies like The Goonies or Indiana Jones.

At first, rejection made me doubt everything, but I kept trying. Last year I decided to pretend rejections didn't bother me. I will never stop learning new things about writing or publishing. I’m also getting great at pretending I'm not disappointed.

I had to choose family and other things over really learning the ropes of writing, editing, marketing, etc. I expect some failures due to lack of knowledge. BUT, I won’t quit until I’m too old to type or my mind turns to mush.
