How to Deal With Disappointment

# 1-Accept. Denial is very powerful. The first step would be to come to terms with our current perdicaments. We should accept the situation for what it is.

# 2- Realize- After accepting the unfortunate event that let us down we need to realize it's toll on us emotionally. We must understand what this setback has down to our confidence and self-esteem.Understanding where we stand emotionally can help us tame our moods and tackle our thoughts.

# 3-Talk about it. People may know about our recent let-down but in order to offload some of that emotional baggage.Talk to a close-friend, realitive or shrink. Learning to talk about things that has hurt us if a good approach to fast-healing.These people may also have good advice that could come in handy as on your journey back to emotional well-being.

# 4-Change it. We must change the way we look at this disappointment. Each time we think of what has happened we must try to make it a positive thought, think of all the bad things that could have happened but didn't. If we can make this an 'Atleast It Wasn't Worse' scenario we can drain the power it has on our moods.

# 5- Teach it. The good thing about disappointment is that it gives us an lession in life. We should use this newfound experience and help others evade it.If you help someone else

# 6-Don't Give Up. if it was a scholarship we thought was a gurantee or a job we thought was ours then there is no need to give up. Those the saying is old and almost a cliche it is still as true as day 'when one door closes, another opens'. This oppurtunity may not have been the perfect one for you and if you got it then you would have missed out on the better things to come. Don't give up on your dream because you never know whats waiting for you behind a certain door.
