Learn from rejections #15

Description

@SallyMcGrath

Learning Objectives

  • Reflect on previous experiences
  • Identify key learning points from that experience

Coursework content

Everyone experiences rejection. Learning from past examples helps us to deal with the possible future instances. Think of some situations where you felt rejected. Perhaps you didn’t get on a sports team or didn’t get offered a job. Write a 250-word text about this personal experience. Try to answer the following questions:

  • What did you learn as a result of this rejection?
  • Did the experience teach you more about yourself?
  • What positive things came out of the rejection (perhaps not immediately, but later)?
  • How would you recommend other people to behave in that situation?
