Guy A:
He approaches a girl at the bar. The girl is dismissive. She replies
‘Hi’ but continues to look at her phone. She is polite, but mostly gives
monosyllabic one-liners. She is obviously not interested in him.
Guy A is uncomfortable. He knows she is not interested, despite them
having a proper conversation. He gives up. He ends the conversation politely
and excuses himself.
He goes home feeling really, really dejected and sad. He starts to
wonder, “Why am I such a loser? Why is it girls hate me? I am simply doomed to
be alone forever.”
Guy B:
He approaches another girl at the bar. This girl, is a complete Snub.
She was disrespectful to him. Before he could even open his mouth, she glares
at him in that arrogant way and says, “I am not interested you loser. I am way
out of your league. Why don’t you go home and watch your TV.” She turns away
and joins her friends. From his vantage point, he could see that they were all
starting to point and laugh at him.
Guy B goes home feeling super awesome and elated. He thinks to himself,
“I’ve never approached a girl like that before! She was hot! Last time, I was
always glued to my seat as I stared at my drink. I didn’t dare move an inch!
What great progress I’ve made tonight!”
He starts to go through in his head what happened that night with that
bitchy girl. He analyzes what he thought went wrong. He promises himself that
he’d do better the next time round.
Rejection, a single loss, a piece of regret, a betrayal, a fuck-up, and
the scathing words others say about you or even a tragedy are not failures.
Failure only comes when you stop trying.
It’s all about attitude and how you see things.
So get up. Get up.
And just try again.
You’ll get there.
Relax. However you’ve thought that you’ve failed, it’s never the end,
nor is it that bad. Stay chill and be happy.
