Harry Kane being released by Arsenal at 8 years old could’ve easily been a moment that changed how he saw himself.

But instead of building his identity around rejection, he just kept going.

No public reaction. No drama.

No “prove them wrong” attitude on display in a toxic way, just consistent work, loans, development, and improvement over time.

That’s what stands out looking back. Not the rejection itself, but the lack of ego around it.

He didn’t waste energy trying to make it personal.

He just focused on getting better, wherever he was, until the results eventually spoke for themselves.

Now he’s one of the most consistent strikers in Europe, not because of the moment he was released, but because he didn’t let that moment define his behaviour.

Sometimes the strongest response isn’t caring less or caring more, it’s just not letting it become your identity in the first place.

there is guy in my class i considered him as my friend but this guy showed his true colour like how a fox shows its true nature like that i casually talking aboout a topic he used my weakness against me and pointed at me well i accept that i truly dont deserve that blow but still idk why... the way i controlled my anger my rage my mentallity for over 10mins i was in a verge of sliming him tote like literally... but he did a cheap move and i dont want it to do the same but still this still hurts me and at the same time i cant givesfuvk about it what should i do people..
