You can get through this.
Life can be tough and sometimes, it seems like nothing goes your way even when you do EVERYTHING right. This is a fact of life. And as you work hard and get sh*t done, sometimes things just don’t go the way you wanted them to.

Everyone has that girlfriend who shows up to wine nights down in the dumps about work, school, or just life in general. She works so hard, probably harder than anyone you know, yet is let down when she doesn’t receive a job offer ... AGAIN.
And as much as she gets down on herself and just stops believing in herself, she picks her head up, gets up the next morning, and goes to the job she hates. She knows for a fact that she has to keep working and striving to reach her goals.
Your friend is onto something. No matter how many times she fails, she gets back up and keeps trying her hardest. Because if you’re going to work at something you better be ALL IN or not at all.
In the roughest and lowest points of your life, it’s important to remember your DREAMS. No matter how unreachable you think they are, you have to believe in yourself because sometimes you are all you have. And remember, you are doing this for YOU!
So the next time one of your gal pals shrugs into the bar after a killer chemistry exam, remind them of their DREAMS. Because the only way we are going to make it is if we, STRONG WOMEN, hold each other up.
