It wasn’t meant for me, something better will come along that will guide me to another path meant for me. Everything always redirects to the right path in the end.
I have a friend who told me recently that “rejection is protection” and I think about that every time something doesn’t work out. You’re being protected from something and maybe even saved for something better. Once you tap into that mindset, the heartache and disappointment become tolerable. You will get rejected from all sorts of places / people along your walk of life, don’t fight it, roll with it, and get excited for what comes next.
