Hey John, thanks for meeting up. I'm just so gutted about not getting that marketing job. I really thought I had a shot.

Whoa, hold on a second. That's absolutely not true. Remember that amazing presentation you gave last month? The one everyone was praising? Or how you spearheaded that volunteer project and doubled its reach?
哇，等一下。那绝对不是真的。还记得你上个月做的那个精彩的演示吗？就是大家都在称赞的那个？或者你如何牵头那个志愿者项目，使其影响力翻倍的？
Well, yeah, those were good, but this feels different. This was a professional role.

I guess I hadn't looked at it that way. I just feel like I'm hitting a wall.

这不是一堵墙，艾米丽，这是一条绕道。你有如此多的优点，一份工作申请无法定义。也许这个特定的职位不适合你独特的才能，正因为如此，更好的机会正在等着你。
I hope so. Thanks, John. I really needed to hear that. I guess I just lost sight of things.
我希望如此。谢谢你，约翰。我真的需要听到这些话。我想我只是看不到事情的真相了。
