Can anyone help me cope with feelings of inadequacy and disappointment?

Life is never easy.... Things are thrown at you which are hard to accept. You must now accept that your dream job of being a pilot is not going to happen. You must think you are clever enough to have been a pilot in the first place, and I think that you might just be.... Why don't you use that brain of yours and channelling it into proving to yourself that you're not a failure and do something else such as.... training to do something in connection with aircraft. It's devestating when you cant do what you want to do, but accept it and progress from here. Living with knocks that life deals out is tough, but keep smiling there'll be something out there to tempt you soon. M.
