How to survive rejection and be your own biggest fan

By Fiona Robyn

My experience of being a writer is of walking a constant tight-rope between processing negative feedback and rejection, and feeling good enough about my work to not give up completely. There have been extreme highs and extreme lows over the years, and I’m not expecting things to get any easier as time goes on — just different.

Although none of us would ever improve if we weren’t able to take on feedback from others, we also need to manage this process so it doesn’t overwhelm us.

Mistakes and failures


It’s not possible to live life without failing somewhere along the line.


Remember that it took Thomas Edison 10,000 failures before he created the light bulb. That’s what I call persistence.


We come into this world with few skills and little knowledge and learn by trial and error.
