How would you "interpret" a rejection?

Hello, W&A. Today I got an interesting question for you. In my opinion, there are lots of ways to deal with a rejection, and even more ways to interpret them. So, if you be rejected, how would you interpret it? Would you throw your project away? Would you laugh and say "They don't know what they're loosing..."? (Just examples) What would you do?

If your not getting rejected your not writing or submitting! Answer: Keep writing, keep submitting. Keep the faith, move on and be positive.

How do you interpret a rejection? As someone said; fail again, but fail better.

I say keep failing until you can't fail any more, then, by a simple process of exclusion, you're bound to succeed.

By the way, I am qualified. I've had lots of rejections.
