What to do in Toxic Relationships | Print |  E-mail

Have you ever been in a situation where people seem to drain you of your energy?  Well there really are people out there who are pure Toxic People, they whinge and moan about everything, and generally belong to what I once heard someone call, the "ain't it awful club."   A negative environment can leave you completely flat, empty and feeling so very, very tired.  People don't realise that often in the effort to heal their lives they actually create more problems by constantly going over and talking about the problems.  What you focus on increases and with digging up the past, often what you end up with is a saturated polluted negative energy field, which manifests as depression in the average person.

Sometimes in life we just have to stop and take stock of who and where we are spending our energy, and honestly you are far better off spending your time alone than spending it with people who never stop complaining, and never stop telling sad stories and being angry, complaining about prices, people and life in general.  Humans have the power to step aside from the old, to change the way we think and what we are thinking about, through self awareness and choice we can turn our energy into a shining light of positive success.  

I have always believed that you become like the people you surround your self with, and remember when you were a kid and your mother made statements like. "I don't want you hanging about with those kids!" At the time you probably wondered why, but weather she realised it or not what she was actually saying was, "if you hang out with them you will become like them."  

If you want to be happy, surround yourself with happy people, if you want to be successful then surround yourself with successful people.  Drop those negative vibes, drop the feeling obligated to people you have known for ever, and make a conscious choice to select where and who you spend your precious energy with.  The negative people will be a ball and chain around your ankle, and if you keep spending time with them, they will surely as the sun rises hold you back and prevent you from moving forward with your life.  Emotional negativity speaks in many languages, "can you believe what she said?" "Can you believe the price of petrol, those oil companies are ripping us off!" "The world is headed for disaster, and it's just not safe to go out there and travel any more."  It goes on and on, and the thoughts hang like a fog in the air.  Judgements, and poverty mentality, envy and greed, selfishness and desperation are all symptoms of Toxic People.

Be Selective

Consciously make the effort to avoid people who are in that "ain't it awful club," look for people who are thinking about and focusing on what they have rather than what they don't have, look for signs of empowerment, signs like, happiness, contentment, enthusiasm, laughter, nurturing, uplifting people:  people who applaud your dreams, and uplift your spirit with their enthusiasm for life and living.
