Best Selling Author Ryan Holiday (Obstacle is the Way, Ego is the Enemy, Stillness is the Key, Lives of the Stoics) put it nicely.

When his book gets published, he doesn’t worry about how many copies it sales, what types of reviews it gets, or where it sits on the New York Times Bestseller list.

He’s too productive moving on to writing his next book, producing a daily podcast, publishing a monthly newsletter, and perfecting his craft.

I think this concept can also apply to you.

Rather than letting the rejection emails, recruiter ghosting, and interview mishaps bring you down.

Continue to get better by letting the work of today count.
