There are two types of pilots. Those who have landed gear up and those who will.

I know at least 4 individuals who have struck tips or slid in for a perfect no point landing and work full time in the aviation world. One is a 747 captain. One is a CRJ Captain. One is an A320 FO, and the other is a Challenger 604 captain.

At the end of the day it isn't the fact that you had an accident. It's the circumstances surrounding that event (no negligence), and the fact that you learned from it.

I can guarantee you that somebody that has had to use a crane to get the plane back on the ramp isn't going to belly land EVER again in their career.
