Living Luxuriously for Less

“As I look back on my life, I realize that every time I was being rejected from something good, I was actually being re-directed to something better.”
-Dr. Steve Maraboli

Do not allow rejection to make you bitter; allow it to make you better! Pull the truths from the “jar of rejection,” apply them to your life and move forth in greatness. Truth is, rejection can make your stronger, wiser and more resilient!

I can’t help but to think about this guy that I had a huge crush on in middle school- I did something super sweet and (uncharacteristic for me) to show him that I was crushing on him... At break, he showed it to everyone and LAUGHED in my face! I will always remember that day; I was HUMILIATED!!! But who’s laughing now?

But seriously, I am thankful for the rejection in every stage and facet of my life, it led to be exactly where I was supposed to be! I just had to learn to be patient, ignore the lies that I wasn’t good enough, pretty enough, smart enough or hadn’t been there long enough, allow it to make me stronger and most of all prove it all wrong!

My husband said it best, “KILL ‘EM WITH GOOD SUCCESS!”

That's right Miss Melanie! He puts you in that predicament for a reason. He tests you and places you in situations that may not make sense at the time. But only He can make sense of where our life is headed and we need to trust. You're an inspiration and this is where you're supposed to be in life, in love and in spirit. Thank you for being you, for your wit and wisdom you share with many, some complete strangers, that appreciate and enjoy your craft and professionalism. You take pride in what you do, it shows, and we're here for it! 🙏🏼💯
