Just like the bitter pill, life has its way of teaching us a lesson that we never asked or demand for.
I could remember when I got a very painful call from my interviewers saying I did not get the job I spent days pouring my heart, myself just to get that job and it seems everything went just in vain. This made me feel so bad because the rejection was so heavy in my heart.
I couldn't hold it anymore. It was choking me already, sometimes I just scream. Sometimes I cry. Sometimes I just cover myself in blanket and stay throughout the day without going out, thinking why life is so unfair. But I was lying down on my bed then I just realized a better pill wasn't just that loss, it was something like a push making us to rethink our thoughts and our life and to try harder in other ways that we can't consider.
Sometimes those bad experience shapes us and makes us stronger, those rejections I remember when I was rejected in a job that made me discover how to make money online. I opted for a freelance work and I succeeded in it.
I was forced to face my fear to carry life on my own, to be self-employed, to hold so hard for me. That life beat up is not punishment, they are a big lesson in disguise, they teach us how to be resilient courageous patience and to keep going no matter what happened to us.
So next time when life hands you that red pill, it might be a heartbreak, a failure in different aspects of life or your plan didn't go the way you wanted it to go at that moment, just take a deep breath swallow your pride.
It might not feel good at first but it is what will shape you into becoming this the person you admire in the future, it will make you tougher, wiser and get ready for what is next to come.
