We all learn lessons in life. Some stick, some don't. I have always learned more from rejection and failure than from acceptance and success.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Whenever I've had success, I never learn from it. Success usually breeds a degree of hubris. When you fail, that's when you learn.
I think I've always been somebody, since the deaths of my father and brother, who was afraid to hope. So, I was more prepared for failure and for rejection than for success.
