1 Acknowledge Emotions

It's natural to feel a range of emotions after a career setback. You might experience disappointment, frustration, or even self-doubt. It's crucial to acknowledge these feelings rather than suppress them. By facing your emotions head-on, you can process them in a healthy way and prevent them from hindering your progress. Once you've given yourself time to reflect, you'll be better positioned to approach the situation with a clear mind and renewed focus.

Yes no one gets happy or becomes happy when they get the unfortunately mails about a job rejection or a project refusal. One must always keep their minds open and accept whatever comes either good or bad because its the law of nature. Everyone cannot be pleased at the same time

When setback happens, it's always breaks one morale or the vibe to keep applying. Seeking the support of professionals, mentors or more experienced people helps one heal especially when you prepared very well for the job or the interviews and you get the rejected mail. The mentorship helps one get back up on their feet's again and keep fighting.
