At the age of 18, I stepped into the door of society with dreams and expectations. However, I was greeted not by applause and flowers, but by more than 40 brutal rejections. The doors of one company after another closed in front of me, cooling my fiery dreams. I was confused, I was hesitant, and I began to question my own worth.
"You are too young and inexperienced. HR's words pierced my fragile heart like a sharp sword.
"You don't have enough education. "Another HR remark made me feel powerless.
"Your abilities don't meet our requirements. "I've heard too much about such rejections.
In the face of the cruelty of reality, I had to lower my proud head and let go of the so-called decency. I started selling condoms, which seemed a bit of an unspeakable job to the average person. I walked through the streets, enduring the stares and ridicule of others.
"Young man, what's the point of selling this?" the words of passers-by made my heart twist.
"How can you do this at such a young age?" my friend's puzzlement left me speechless.
But I didn't give up, and I firmly believe that as long as I work hard, I can find my place in this world. I work hard to learn sales skills, I have a deep understanding of market demand, and I serve every customer with my heart.
"This condom is really good to use, I recommend it to you. "I speak genuinely to every customer.
"You are so young, you are so good at doing business, and you will definitely have a future in the future. "I am warmed by the praise from our customers.
Finally, when I was 26 years old, I earned my first million in my life. This number may not be a big deal for others, but for me, it is a proof of my hard work and a manifestation of my ability.
"Look, I'll just say you can do it!" comforted me with my friend's words.
"You're an amazing young man. "I'm proud of the customer's words.
Looking back, I am filled with emotion. I've been rejected by over 40 companies, I've put down decent condoms, but I've never given up. I used my hard work, I used my persistence, in exchange for today's success.
This story is not fiction, but my real life. I want to tell everyone that no matter what difficulties you encounter, no matter how many rejections you encounter, as long as you persevere, as long as you never give up, you can create your own brilliance.
Today, I'm no longer the 18-year-old, I'm not the rejected young man. I am my own master, I am my own hero. I have written my own legend with my life.
This is me, a young man who was rejected by more than 40 companies at the age of 18, put down a decent condom to sell, and made 1 million at the age of 26. This is my story, a story about perseverance, about courage, about dreams.
