The modeling world _ and the world at large _ is a pretty cruel place. It__ up to you to decide whether or not that turns you into a cruel person as well. Are you going to be mean and selfish because some of the people around you are, or are you going to overcome that and walk away a decent human being? The world gives you every reason in the book to become callous. It__ your job not to become that way as well.

Hard work, determination, and talent are key for any successful venture. But sometimes you need that fourth ingredient: dumb luck. Luck can never replace hard work and talent, but sometimes it can win out over both.

I learned that, while rejection is the name of the game, I__ always going to be exactly what someone is looking for, eventually. Whether it is looks or personality, be it in the professional world or the dating world, what others have over me is irrelevant, because there__ always someone out there looking for an exact type of someone _ a someone that I can completely fulfill. I__ not going to be everyone__ ideal, so focusing on the times I get passed over _ be it the modeling industry or in real life _ is a colossal waste of time.
