how do one get a move on from a rejection?

By trying to keep positive and having faith and confidence that things will change or get better. A rejection should only identify a weakness that can be improved or build on. Never say a rejection requires you to stay down, all you have to do is stand and try again.

I distract myself with the things I enjoy in life to be able to appreciate the moment. Then I find new ways to reach my goal and happiness.

You have to accept what had happened and then understand their reasons and then work on what went wrong and go on with your life and be better next time.

Edison said, "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work" regarding inventing the light bulb. Rejection can be tough and we face them in all aspects of daily living ranging from work, school, family, community and the list continues. You can even use a rejection as a tool to better understand yourself and what you bring to the table in any of those relationships. Reflection is a great mindfulness practice.

I think the thing I have come to realize is that their rejection is only that you don't meet enough of their own personal wants and needs, what they seek. This is about the wants and needs of 1 person in 7 billion - there will be others that see in you someone that will meet or exceed enough of their wants and needs.

Getting rejected isn't easy for anyone, but the important thing you can gain is that you can learn and grow from it. The feeling can make things a little uneasy, but I think it's also important to remember that you aren't at fault for it, it's just that everyone has their perspective on life and each of those perspectives isn't always going to align. However, feeling grief -as it were- is a necessary part of recovering from any type of trauma, whether that be in a smaller or larger capacity, the 'road to recovery' is the same. So, let yourself feel and embrace the emotions you are, but also bare in mind that there are always good situations awaiting you on the horizon.

We've all been rejected at one point or other in our lives. It can be from a new love interest, a job you applied or a group of friends. Rejection is something you will have to deal with your entire life. It is a way of life. Time and maturity help us to overcome and move on from rejection. Use it as an opportunity to move forward in your life. Accept the rejection. Nobody rejects you without a reason. Surround yourself with people who make you feel valued. Spend time with those people who accept you for who you are.
