Rejection is a jagged pill to swallow. This girl is NOT a fan! You’ll hear more about it on The REAL Journey Show Episode 31: Rejection or Redirection. Tune in HERE.
But, throughout this 17-minute episode, I share that when I look back over my life, I realize the rejections–and trust me, there are plenty (including but not limited to…that from my biological parents), redirected me to a more fulfilling path along life’s journey. Of course, I felt defeated when I received them, but I’ve learned valuable lessons through those moments of being turned away.
We’ve all been rejected. And, if we are being honest, it almost always stings at first, but how we view it can make all the difference. Our minds can be selfish, and we tend to think everything is about us. But sometimes, the rejection has nothing to do with us. So let’s rewire our brains for success.
Are you feeling rejected? Let down? Defeated?
Try viewing it as redirection. When we consider rejection as redirection, we can count all the opportunities that came our way because of it.
Rejection or redirection?
You choose.
