Getting enough of these, No, No, No, No, No, in a row can start to look like a trend. It&#8217;s then tempting to come to the conclusion that we ourselves are at fault. Obviously, we may need to learn, change, and adapt as we always should, but it&#8217;s often just a short-term pattern, and all we need to do is keep going until that flat line on the graph shoots up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But if we let those negative thoughts consume us, then that line can drop down into the red. Meaning you stop going to interviews, you stop picking up the phone to make that next sale, or you stop moving towards any goals you may have right now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I like to advise my candidates to just keep going. It&#8217;s all part of the journey. How you react to every rejection is what defines your success.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Another great thing to keep in mind is to not get desperate and accept the next YES you hear. Always be qualifying, and don&#8217;t settle for a role you&#8217;re not going to be happy in 12 months&#8217; time from now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Keep on going!
