The Art of Positive Rejection
You reach out to someone for help.
They reject you.
The most powerful thing you can do?
Say this to yourself:
"They're dealing with something tough."
It's not the first thing I think when getting denied help.
But once I remember it? Game changing.
Because it's true.
If someone is unwilling to give you their energy, it's because they need it.
● They need to guard it, for now.
● It has nothing to do with you.
● They're dealing with stuff.
Remind yourself of that, and you'll feel the appropriate responses:
● Compassion
● Resilience
● Patience
Old self talk: "WTF is they're problem (with me)?"
New self talk: "They're dealing with something tough."
May your self talk lift you up and keep you going strong,
