Failure can make us feel passive and helpless and lead us to believe that we’ll never succeed no matter what we do or try. However compelling such feelings are, they are no more than perceptual distortions — tricks our minds play on us after experiencing failure.
The truth is, we always have more control over things than we realize. For example, we might feel despondent if we failed to get a promotion because our sales figures did not measure up for the third year in a row. We tried harder than ever before yet even our best efforts were not sufficient – what more can we do? – Guy Winch Ph.D on The 4 Keys to Learning From Failure
Finally i just resigned from WB. It such a pity that the workers there met me as an intern, not as the real me. People treat you for what you are at the present not what you are in the future, and i will remind this experience forever.
This means i have no place to go, on the other hand i only have little time left to continue my internship program. Life is not my best buddy lately. I fail my internship program. But Failure is a learning oppotunities as long as you know where to look and how to look.
1. Where to look?
Recently i’ve been applying to 3 places. (1) KAP Dra. Suhartati dan Rekan; (2) KAP Amachi, Arifin, Mardani & Muliadi ; and (probably) (3) PKF International. I know (1) from my father’s friend, she knows the owner, Dra. Suhartati, if you read other post titled Intership Story, you will get more details about how i got barked when first time i came there. Despite how i was treated, this KAP opened its door for me, even forcely. Or at least they give me a place to continue my fail internship program more over it is OJK registered. As for (2) Tiara called the office and the operator said we should come to the office to give the application by our self, Tiara went there and gave our application. They promised to call us at Thursday. If they can confirm our application at Thursday morning, i will prefer this place because i am with Tiara, we continue our internship go up in smoke together :’). (2) is also registered at OJK. And for (3) i dont hope too much, so today i went to campus AGAIN because i need Mr. Indra Pahala’s signature to legalize my resignation letter to WB. It turned out, i met Mrs. Marselisa Nindito. She asked me about my internship process and I told her everything, she felt sorry for me and she tried to contact my upperclassman who graduated this year. Mrs. Lisa said this student once interns at KAP Afiliasi Internasional she thought i can be helped :”) thank you in advance Mrs. you are the most caring lecturer i ever had. So i sent my CV to my upperclassman. Once again, i dont hope too much because International KAP usually has detailed precedure to recruit intern, such as writing test and interview. Not like the local KAP.
The problem is, i promise (1) to give my application and start working on Thursday, and (2) promise me to response my application on Thursday, and (3) is….. i don’t know.
- If i already work at (1) i can not leave go to (2) or (3), because yeah you read my last post about how i got barked.
- If i leave my opportunity at (1), the probability i will get accepted at (2) or (3) is unknown.
OMG i never expected my life would be like Math Subject – Logic at highschool -_-
2. How to look
Talking about looking means talking about perspective. Based on my bad habbit, i tend to open new options without dare to choose one!!!!!!!!!! If i find an obstacle at this one, i will make other options. The more options i made makes it harder to choose.
If failure is a learning opportunities i should learn from my failure at WB.
:(
Help me God
