you don't... just accept it and keep going. if you believe in what you're doing then keep working on it to make it better. Life is short -- don't dwell on things that are out of your control

Just keep pitching to others.
I meant cartoon.
What Bob Harper said.
Well, what about the animation bible?
Rejection of pitches is one way of dealing with it but, here is my personal solution to deal with my pitch rejections.
After my feelings calm down and I remember to review my own plan.
I review my budget and the time limit of how much money/time I am willing to spend attempting to get another to see my vision through a pitch. Once that money/time threshold is exhausted and I still like my project, I make it myself. Sure the quality may not be as "perfecto" as a "O-positive-studio" but, we storytellers show our stories better than anyone else and with todays technology; tomorrow need not be wasted catering to another.
Building a IP Portfolio may be very valuable if I do have a hit and one asks, "Do you have anything else?" Yes I do. In fact now that I think about my YouTube channel with my stories is a lot more satisfing than adding to the stack of pitch rejections on top of a box of scripts.
