Getting over it

Getting over some things is very hard. But an adult needs to pick themselves up and get on with what needs to be done. I just figure that this wasn't the right time and when it is the right job will come along. I usually take some time to get over the disappointment and then move on.

Hello Pogi253, Look at this way, at least you have a job. it's hard but some companies usually get the younger and not the experience ones. I feel sorry that you are experiencing this scenario in your company work force. because finding a job is really hard now a days and you never know how it can affect you if you lose your job. well, just be grateful you have a job.

I've been applying for a permanent position in a public school here in my country. It's been five years already. Some younger applicants were hired ahead of me. I was upset but I am thankful that I still have my job while waiting for my time to be called. I love my job now, it's not stressful. I can work under minimal supervision. If the benefits are better in a public school, I'd love to stay at my current job forever. However, the attitude of my boss sometimes let me to think twice. Happy mylotting. :)

I go your route...let loose with friends!!1

My husband had similar experience. But he had no emotional feeling with the incident that the person who got the opportunity is his student. He always pryed for his success.

situations like that can be confronted now and then,when our efforts cannot help and nothing we can do.to be honest,i usually feel really depressed when it occurs to me .so the regular thing i do is to relax myself,aiming to forget about it.it works at that time ,but the problem will take on all the time .what we should do ? maybe only a hermit can enjoy the life ..

This has been happening more with me ya know. I have been ill since 2008 and at home. And there are so many things that I wanted to happen my way... but then, this is what is life, aint it? So I have found a solution. There is no point to sulk and make it more miserable. Instead, what I do is - forget it for now and return to it later - theory of mine. Works ok most of the times. And when I return back, either it is not that required anymore or I have grown stronger and achieve it. But yes, it really drove me mad during the initial days when it had started and I had no other choice but to give up.

When I fight for something and I don't reach it at the moment I thought would be the right one, there are two options: 1) or it still wasn't the right moment or 2) I still havn't really done "everything" I could have to reach what I wanted. When you have a dream to realize, you have to elaborate a good plan before starting your personal fight. A good plan envolves to make a research, get all information you need about your dream. Once you get all those informations, you have to realize a plan to follow. Get it done, start your plan step by step, with patience but continously and you will see that you get it done. Some years ago a read a sentences an author wrote: "Victory doesn't mean that you never fall down, it means that you stand up every time you tumble." I don't accept my loss unless my ambition was predestinated to be lost. So we have to recognize wether our ambition is realistic.

Well even that I emphasize the fact that I (unfortunately) do not work at the moment I am passing a not very happy family situation. I can not do anything because things in my family improve, I can only pray and hope. The person who is creating problems not indifferent to the inside of my household, I'm sorry to say, but he is my brother! However, this is a separate chapter ...

Normally, i will cry. And i'm sure i'll feel sorry for myself. But they will never see me down and frustrated. I will never give them that satisfaction. I will work hard and prove them wrong, not in their benefit but my own. That in the end I will quietly smile and said, "I told you so."

You are right there. Everyone has its own path to take and a corresponding destination.I agree in the divertionary tactics, for it is the only way, i think, to let that thing slip into our minds. If that same thing happens to me, I would do the same, pray, and work harder for something better will come. There's always a prize for those people who really work hard just to achieve something. Thanks

Some times life isn't always fair. It is good that you turn to your faith in your troubling times, we must also turn to our faith when life is going well too. When things don't turn out the way I expect it, I tell myself everything happens for a reason. God has a plan for me, even though I don't understand, I know He does!

Yeah i think it is better to learn to get over things fast because then it becomes the reason for your unhappiness later. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

Im still trying t get over and acept the fact that my ideal dram of working with animals isnt going to happen. I just have had to accept it and move on. You know that thing in life dont always go the way you'd hoped

Now, I can't think of anything that I wasn't able to get over except for food that I wanna eat. There comes a day where I really want to eat something and then it is not available at a store or I wasn't able to buy it. I feel so sad and really craving for it. Then the next day, I will try my best to look for it so I can eat it. I think it goes the same with other things. You just have to try your best to achieve what you're longing for. Have a nice day ahead, pogi!
