I found out today that a project I have been working on for about 5 months has been cancelled by executive leaders for reasons outside of my control. I’m feeling disappointed and frustrated. If you have experience like this, what helped you move on?

I've had a few things similar to that happen to me over the years. I was disappointed and pretty angry on one occasion. But, while I didn't agree with the decision, at least it didn't imperil my job. I just kept working on other things. So it was one of those things where I didn't like it, but I was still getting paid, and if you're working for an organization you just have to accept that sometimes. It's their ball you're playing with.

True, it is fully out of my control and I am still getting paid,

Yes, focus on the next thing.

I just did what everyone else said and that was to focus on the next thing. I was bummed as well which is a totally resonable feeling but I quickly had to pivot my focus to something else. Especially when it is something way beyond your control.

Hii guys,

Need some suggestions on ORMB vs Ebs/Fusion profile.
