As a creative person or a leader – your ability to be resilient and keep going in the face of failure can equal success in the long run. Here’s 5 tips to help you succeed.   Don’t overthink the failure. Whether you’re an actor who didn’t get the role you auditioned for or a filmmaker whose pitch fell flat, you may never know what went wrong. Don’t overthink it; move on. Don’t take it personally. Try to separate the failure of your project from who you are as a person.   Get objective advice. Get a third-party objective with the maturity and professionalism that you can trust.   At the moment of rejection, keep a cool head. If possible, see if you can ask questions about what you could have done better. That information you acquire can help set you up for future success.   Don’t let rejection or failure derail your dream. Your career is much bigger than any single project. You never know when tweaking a concept could work for something else.   Bonus tips! Should I have a day job? You would be in good company with the many famous creative people who have had day jobs.   Create a daily ritual around your work. Find a place, schedule a time and get to work.   Understand the power of your story. Your failure does not define you.   Gain a Better Perspective on Failure: https://www.philcooke.com/failure/
