Aiming for Rejection in 2022
In response to Coffee Challenge: Why I want to be a better me in 2022
“When you give yourself permission to communicate what matters to you in every situation you will have peace despite rejection or disapproval. Putting a voice to your soul helps you to let go of the negative energy of fear and regret.”
― Shannon L. Alder
The Aim
My aim for 2022 is to run away from my comfort zone like it’s a building on fire. Where am I running? To the land of rejection, where I will settle in 2022.
Why rejection?
My focus in the upcoming year is to submit my writing to literary magazines and journals. One outcome of submitting your work is rejection. If I make a goal of 50 rejections, for example, that means I’m living outside my comfort zone, which could mean my work is rejected or accepted.
Submitting my work=possible rejection or possible acceptance.
Not submitting my work=dead end. No possibilities.
