The very first way to manage rejection is to be honest. Accept the feeling that comes with it and face it boldly. How you feel and how you think are the key things on how to go about this situation that is why honesty is encouraged. Weigh the gravity of your feelings; are you feeling too hurt to the point of crying? If yes then cry out loud. It is a great way to release the hurt. If crying doesn't help, tell a good friend about the exact situation and how you feel about it. Here, it is best to talk to someone you know his or her idea will support your feelings positively intoto.

Secondly, you have to be positive. It is understandable that rejection can be painful especially when it concerns something you were so sure and confident about. The pain is never easy to bear but you have to fight any negativity at that moment by being positive. Admit the hurt but do not capitalize on it.

Thirdly, do a follow-up of your every thought. Do not be too tough on yourself. Think of why the situation happened. Don't put yourself at the victim end. Acknowledge you can be at fault. When you identify the source of the fault, try as much as you can not to repeat thesame mistake. This will help you to not think you will always be rejected.
