Hi everyone,
I'm 22, and a few days ago I experienced my third failure at a open competition in the army. This competition lasts about 9 months, consists of several phases and there are about 50 places for 6000 candidates. It offers a very prestigious job in the military field. this was the last year I could try, due to my age, max 22.
I did my best, but I couldn't win and I disappointed not only myself but also my family.
in two months I have another competition, for a less prestigious career but in the same field. moreover, entering would mean being able to run the next year for the first competion ( if your enter in the same field there is a higher age limit, up to 28 years)
My heart is in pieces, I'm trying to prepare myself for this new contest but I have my head somewhere else, I have many regrets and it seems to me that at 22 I am already old and have wasted all the possibilities I had, regrets destroy me. i tried 3 times and i failed 3 times..what a great job! i still have hope, but it hurts like hell.
is there anyone who can give me some advice?
thank you
