May I let go of the fear of rejection
I have decided that 2020 is the year that I am letting go of the fear of rejection… and my fear of failure. I am ready to take chances in all aspects of my life. Just typing this scares me so incredibly much. But it’s time. It’s time to let go because if I never try, I can never truly succeed.
The majority of the top leaders of the world failed before they succeeded. I read that Thomas Edison tried more than 10,000 times before he invented the lightbulb. And his idea was heavily rejected, many calling it a sham. Anna Wintour was fired from Harper’s Bazaar because her work was considered too edgy. She later called that rejection her “lucky break.” Even Oprah Winfrey was deemed “unfit for television” and fired from her first job as a news anchor!
So I’m going to do my best to take note of some of my role models and learn it’s ok to get rejected. It’s ok to fail. Everyone will have their opinions. But at the end of the day, no matter what, you tried. And you will be ok.
“There is freedom waiting for you,
On the breezes of the sky,
And you ask ‘What if I fall?’
Oh but my darling,
What if you fly?”
― Erin Hanson
I forgot Anna Wintour had been at Bazaar! The good thing about rejection is it can def make you work harder bc you realize exactly what you want… I love your book reviews so look forward to seeing those too! Insta handle: pinkandgreenmom
I forgot too! I remembered after doing some research.
And so glad you like the book reviews! I’ve been reading a ton so definitely more coming your way 🙂
Would love to see new travel adventures!

Love celeb dupes for less! But self care mini moments could be a fun feature once a week
@jordantroublefield
Ooh love that idea. Thanks Jordan!
This is indeed an important life lesson. I’m glad you included this topic because failure teaches you more than winning, it teaches you how to keep going.

skincare for aging not redskin
Great ideas, thank you! I def suffer from adult acne now and then so always try to include what has worked for me and will continue to do so!
Probably the times they rejected me, for whatever reason, were the times I learned the most, especially about myself. Great post!

I love this reminder, to always push forward and never give up on your dreams. 2019 teach me a lot of things, really hoping a new beginning for 2020. I always love your celebrity dupes and how you find the lower prize point but looking as stylish as the celebrity. I also love more casual option for holiday parties. IG @illyjns

I don’t have any fear of rejection. Because fear or not, if you are doomed to be rejected, you will be rejected anyway. So useless to waste your time and energy on that.
Agree. And what do you think of online dating? What are the chances of being rejected there? I read in https://www.fluxmagazine.com/online-dating-gaining-popularity/ that online dating is gaining more popularity every day and it will help you to have more access to good candidates to marriage. As for rejection, I guess nobody can escape that. You are right.

You are right, before starting a new relationship, you should understand yourself and your problems. Also, you can always take quizzes for relationships to make sure you are compatible with a new partner, if you believe in that.
Greatly said. I think that we all need to learn how to properly let go other people and move to something new. I don’t know how everybody, but for me websites for meetings https://wizzlove.com/reviews/instabang-review and hookups are the best way to move on and let my past go. Maybe this is how i actually managed to forget my previous spouse and start to live a new life. So, once again – great advice in my opinion
