REJECTIONS..

Today, let's choose to bloom for ourselves, let's focus on our energy, let's make sure we are going in the right direction, lets make ourselves a priority and, most importantly, let's take care of our hearts..!

IS THAT TOO MUCH A THING TO ASK FOR? I guess not at all...!Okey so, if we ask ourselves, WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME WE ACTUALLY DID THAT, hardly anyone of us will get a near answer. Right?๐Ÿ˜…

It's not that hard or time consuming, believe me..!Once you start focusing on yourself, your mental health, everything will seem less important, infact not at all important to you...!

You don't have to, you don't need to make your heart a warzone for love, for someone else to love you, rather than you yourself. You dont have to let yourself judged by any stranger, you dont have to belittle yourself just because of one goddamn rejection. I know some days may feel like you are battling a warzone, and that's okay, it's just a fight..! IT TOO SHALL SURPASS..!

I remember having a convo with one of my clients the other day, he sounded quite depressed and so belittled to the very fact that he lost a job. I know that's hard to cope up with..! But, does loosing one make you the weakest and useless of all the people there in the world?

Coming back to this, his CEO called up and told him that he was no longer needed in the company. For one instance, no one would get how to react to this, and so was he, clueless and dull, reactionless enough to not get a reply to that. What should we say in a situation like this, 'thank you!' Or something like, ' its okay, I understand' ???? But, neither was he thankful, nor okay or understanding..! And so are we, right? How can anyone be, to a job they've payed their precious years for, just for this day?? He was feeling quite outraged and upset, was kinda feeling sorry for his countless plans and strategies which he had spent days working on, for the hours he spent forsaking food and water..just to get things on time. He felt sorry for the passion with which he spoke about at his workplace(though it was virtual) and, the work that he was doing. And, he was feeling so disappointed knowing that he was so disposable enough to be left out like this?

That, despite everything, one could tell us that we are no longer needed, and that, that is it...!

Suddenly, feeling like that the company or the job or whatever we were doing, starts looking like the ex who left us at the altar...LMAO!๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…. Same blue eyes, uncertainty in principles and abandonment..! And so, looking for the patterns, similarities, and trust me, there's even more.

But, the bottom line is that we don't know what to do next or what comes next. How to walk down that aisle alone, again. You keep wondering, why was I not enough..? What made people to push me at a point to start everything all over again? What made people, to most importantly, not even believe in me, my skills.

HONESTLY, LET IT FLOAT..!

Things that are meant for you, will come to you, no matter how hard you try to push them away and, things that aren't meant for you wont ever come to you, no matter how hard you try to chase them. And, remember, by saying this, I really not mean that you keep on relying on your fate, sitting crossed legs without even trying. Don't be a fool, chase the good...be it between the pages of a young adult fiction or in between the lines of your palms.

We need to understand that some things are really not meant for us, and, in the process of chasing them, we forget to look back at all the lessons that we've learned all along.

So, this is something, I really felt like sharing with everyone reading this, or maybe experiencing anything like this in their lives...

1. It's not you, its them. Yes, that's true. Accept that and move on.

2. There is nothing you could have done more or differently, what is meant to be will be, and what is not, will not. So, stop blaming yourself for every rejection.

3. There is plenty of fish in the ocean. There are thousands of opportunities out there, places that will value your input, so don't be stuck up on that one uncaring salmon. Don't remain fixed just to one.

4. Start ups, jobs, or anything you are doing or have invested into, come and go; but, you know what the difference is, you are here, and will always be. Right? So, stay, fight, slay..!

5. Last, stand up for yourself and call out when people are being unfair. It might not change anything but would make you feel better for sure.

YOU ARE ALL FIGHTERS..

STOP DIMIING THAT LIGHT OF FIRE WITHIN YOU
