“Bad company corrupts good character.” - 1 Corinthians 15:33

I would have to say that the worst way to drain your energy is listening to negativity from other people. Listening to their whining and complaining is not only annoying, but sometimes just listening causes you to feel just as horrible as they do. As a positive person, you don’t want to get too close to negative people, or have them overstay their welcome either. There are certain things you must do to remain positive around negative people. Negative people need help, and you can give it to them while keeping your distance at the same time.

Negative people most of the time don’t feel appreciated by anyone. This explains why they get in such a rebellious mood and attack everybody and everything. They think as if the world is against them, when in fact it is not. The only thing out to get them, is themselves. Perception is everything, it is how we live and view life. Obviously negative people have a perception that they are not loved or appreciated, which causes them to go in a defense mode. A great way to help them if this is the case would be to show them that you are listening, and you are there to help. You are listening, but you are not just listening to all of the crap that they are telling you just to hear it. You are listening so that you can put things together and come up with a valuable solution to the problem. So the key thing in this situation is to listen for a solution, rather than listening to the problem itself without making a suggestion of turning things around. Otherwise you will get caught in th same negative trap that they got trapped in. You are the hero, its up to you to save them

Now, as for the negative people who are just negative for no reason whatsoever, stay distance from them. Set limits, do not allow them to invade your space. Do not listen in on their occult practices…..I mean discussions (same thing). You don’t have to even respond to the negative things they say to you, after all it wouldn’t help if both of you are negative. When you are in a situation when someone like this is around you, always speak with authority, be consistent in being positive around them. If you do it correctly, its like sunlight shining on these dark negative vampires (or people, again, same thing) and they will leave you in no time. The important thing that you must remember and keep in mind all day long is to remain positive at all times as if your life depended on it, oh wait, it does.

5 Guaranteed Steps To End Negativity

1.Wear headphones over your ears. Take them off and on every time you see them. When they ask, tell them its BS protectors.

2.The next time you pass them by, say “You know what, I don’t care what other people say about you, you are a good person.” And when they ask who talks about them, just close your eyes and skip away humming to yourself.

3.Put both of you index fingers together to form a cross and back away slowly every time you see them.

4.Smile very enthusiastically with your mouth open as wide as you possibly can every time they come near you, this will surely scare them away.

5.Every time they come around you put your hands over your ears, one day they will get it.

Negative people are crap magnets, which means they attract more and more negative people, situations, and circumstances to them. Do everything you can to be positive so that you will attract good things in your life, preferably the things you want. Don’t forget to lead by example, although negative people are annoying, it is still up to you to do what you can to help them by showing you care and appreciate them.
