I read the article "Going From Career Back To Calling" by Ted Coiné. The article was about doing what you want to do, not what you are expected to do. That is very important because I do not want to just be miserable my whole life. I want to do something that means something to me, and truthfully I do not even know what I want to do yet. I will figure it out sometime though, as high school begins to wind down.
I also read the article "4 Essentials That Persuade Companies You’re the Expert They Should Hire" by Kimanzi Constable. The four subtopics are all things important to you being hired. The four suntopics are: 1. "A foundation that shows you’re an expert on your topic.", "2. Content on large publications.", "3. Being interviewed on podcasts on your topic.", and "4. They want to see you presenting. ". Those are all huge for a company to choose you, and if you follow those tips there is a good chance you will be hired.

They are two important things to focus on after someone puts you down. If you just get over it yourself and manage to not focus on those people, just the people closest to you, you will be fine.
Eleanor's quote speaks volumes to people with low self esteem. She is saying just look at those past mistakes as building blocks to better yourself in the future.
