Okay. Lets talk a little about negative people today. These are people who are always blaming themselves, others or the circumstances whichever is suitable. They excel at finding the negative qualities or habits in an individual or a group. Personally i have lot of experience in dealing with negative people, so i am going to share few valuable points here:
1) Talk very less with negative people :
I dont mean avoid them but limit your talk. The more you talk, the more negatives they may notice in you. You maybe really talented in some things but still they will mainly notice your negative qualities and make fun of you. Some negative people are great conversationalists so be aware!
2) Ignore their insults:
If they try to insult you or say any negative points about you, just ignore them and think "I know who I am so why should i listen to him/her".
3) Surround yourself with positive people:
Positive people are everywhere but they are are few in numbers. By becoming friend with them you are more likely to keep negative people in control. For instance, if a negative person comes out and points your weakess in front of your positive friends, they are more likely to neglect that negative person. This will make the negative person think twice before insulting you again.
4) Dont share your secrets:
Ah! you know this one never ever share your personal problems or weaknesses with negative people. They are sure to double your worries and this goes well for your secrets too, Never Share It With Them!
5) Keep in touch with them:
This is important. They are negative people, this doesnt mean you should hate them all the time, try to keep contact with them. Show some interest towards them too and make them understand that you care. In that way he/she is less likely to criticise or insult you. And keep in touch because you dont know when their help will be needed for you.
