Answering Reader Questions: Choosing Career, Dealing with Rejeciton

It is Wednesday, April 8, 2026, and today I’m sharing something that truly touched me. My friend Dmitri, a polyglot and educator originally from Ukraine, has been using my book, Own Your Career, Own Your Life, in his English classes in Greece. His students sent in three of the most profound questions I’ve heard in a long time: How do we find our true desires? How do we stay disciplined? And how do we survive rejection? I’m sharing my answers here because whether you’re a student in Athens or a CEO in Atlanta, these are the hurdles we all face.

I hope you enjoy it! As always you can learn more and connect with me on my website (andystorch.com) or LinkedIn. And you can find my books - Own Your Career Own Your Life and Own Your Brand, Own Your Career - on Amazon.
