Rejection: a blessing in disguise by Pam Thomas

Rejection: a blessing in disguise by Pam Thomas

What if someone told you that the last time you were turned down or worse, rejected was not because of you, but because of the other person? Would that change your perspective on the situation or your feelings about the person? If that thought doesn’t float your boat, how about trying this concept on for size…

Rejection is just the Universe’s way of protecting you from situations, things, and people that aren’t a right fit for you.

Think about it.

We’re all unique. We all possess qualities and characteristics that are different and special. That’s a beautiful thing because that means that each situation and each person has a “right fit” and we can’t, as individuals, be the “right fit” for everything or everyone. The mere thought of being the “right fit” for everyone and everything is a draining one at best, because when would you possibly find time for you? How would you be able to enjoy those amazing moments when the synergy was just perfect? When would you be able to really make a deep connection with someone really special?

Rejection truly is a blessing in disguise. It helps us keep the space open for the things and for the people that truly are meant to be a part of our lives. It keeps our options open and supports us in determining what is in our best interests. So the next time you are turned down or rejected, try telling yourself, “It’s OK. This is just the Universe’s way of letting me know that something more suitable to me and for me is on the horizon.” Then let it go and have faith that, that something or someone truly is around the corner just waiting for the chance to introduce themselves to you.
