Why You Should Cut Negative People Out Of Your Life

You walk into the grocery store and you come across some of the finest organic kale you have ever seen. However; after a complete evaluation, you discover that some of the kale has mold on it and that the kale with mold on it is touching the good kale. You, then realize that a vast majority of the kale looks good, but you still would never trust it.
Now imagine if the kale were people and that moldy kale you discovered represented a negative or toxic person. Once that kale touches the good kale, you find yourself questioning the good kale. If the moldy kale were a negative person, that particular kale would affect you. So, why should you cut negative people out of your life?

Negative people have no real goals nor do they have real accomplishments and if they exist, they have existed in the past. Statistically speaking, a vast majority of those that have this particular quality would rather talk negatively about people than setting a goal for him/herself and accomplishing it as a result.

The spoiled kale that represents the negative person affects the good kale around them. That negative person has an impact on those that choose to associate themselves with that type of person. If you set a goal for yourself, the negative person will always attempt to trivialize that goal. The negative person always holds back from their goals and attempts to get their friends to refrain from setting one.

The negative person also tends to be critical of everything around them and quite narcissistic. They find the bad in everything and tend to think of themselves as superior to everyone they criticize, as almost if they suffer from some sort of inferior complex. They sabotage friendships for no reason and emotionally disconnect themselves as being the sole root of the problem, the problem they created.

You have the choice to befriend a negative person, but don't aspire to change them instantaneously. In fact, studies have shown most negative people never change and aspire to be nothing. Is that where you want to head? Think about it and understand why cutting negative people out of your life is a good thing to do.
