Consider this for a moment.
People's feelings and emotions are contagious.
If someone was around you sneezing and coughing constantly, would you try to get closer to them, shake their hand, hug them? (You're relatives OK, but no, I'm talking about acquaintances.).. When someone is putting out negative energy, it's quite obvious. Even if it's not obvious, when you're around certain people that make you feel uneasy or less important, that's not the right kind of people to be around. Furthermore it's very important that you avoid them at all costs. Don't try to change, influence, or even associate with them. WILL NEVER CHANGE! EVER!
You're looking for good people. People that are fun to be around, people who are constantly feeding out positive energy. I know, in America this can be like finding a needle in a haystack, but you can't give up this search. Seriously, there are positive people everywhere, you just gotta know where to look. Associate with the positive, stay clear of the negative. The negative people can have some dangerous effects on you; on your business; your goals; your plans; your dreams.. everything.
You know what.
Remember this blog, OK.
The next time you're out and you are around someone negative (I hope you're not) ..But, should you happen to associate with someone who is naturally negative.. I want you to pause to think about how you feel at that very moment. In that moment, think about what's going on, what the other person is saying and how it's making you feel. Then, work on getting away from that person.. go into another room or walk away.. Get out of their sight so you don't have to associate with them (after all, associating with them is optional). Once you are away from that negative energy.. take a breath, a sigh of relief.. then think about how you feel when you are away from that negative source. I bet it will take a while for you to relieve yourself of that negative energy that just rubbed off onto you. It might even linger on your mind a bit throughout the day (unfortunately). Ultimately you are in control of who you choose to associate with. I generally know who the negative people are, and I automatically avoid them.. If you're not sure if someone is a negative person, or thinks negatively, listen to how they talk.. the types of words they use; do they typically think that everything will fail and the world is about to end and the economy is terrible and all they talk about is bad things.. do they disagree to everything you say, or always reply with a snide remark.. that might be someone you should avoid. Sorry, I know you just read a lot of negative words.. I'll end this on a positive note. A Positive Positive Positive, Great wonderful spectacular life awaits you, just keep plugging away at your incredible future. Cling to people who promote you and support you and you'll do just fine.
