Rejection was their choice. What you do on Monday is yours.

Getting turned down is information about one decision, by one group of people, on one day. It is not a verdict on you, even though it lands like one. The part that belongs to you starts after: whether you go back to practice, send the next application, walk into the room where they said no last time. That stretch is where the story actually gets written.

Give yourself the weekend to feel bad about it, honestly and without arguing yourself out of it. Then pick one concrete next move for Monday and put it on the calendar.
