Consequences Of Having Negative People In Your Life: "They Discredit Your Imagination"

Michael Bassey Johnson famously

“ Always remember that you were once alone, and the crowd you see in your life today are just as unnecessary as when you were alone"

Imagination is what makes a man, take away his imagination and he lies bare, empty, unable to achieve anything. Without Imagination no achievement would have been achieved, no inventor would have made any scientific contribution and human race would have never left the stone age.

Thus, any man/woman who attempts to rob you or discredits your imagination, does you a grave harm! No matter how little or insignificant a man's thoughts or imagination may appear, if you open your mind and look deeper, you may learn a thing or two.

Hence, Negative people will ask you to keep your opinions, thoughts and ideas to yourself, because they know its worth a fortune. They will ask you not to pursue a particular path, because they can see that eventually, it will lead to your greatness. They will ask you to stay silent and not defend yourself because they are secretly cowards, who wear the cloak of bravery, masked in cowardice.

You are better off without these people. The sad fact is, negative people are not just your friends, but can also be family members, colleagues, neighbours etc. If you cannot change them, give them some space. In cases where giving them space is not an option, then you have to create and develop a mental wall, a state of mind where no amount of negativity can get to your mind, heart or soul.

THREE WAYS TO OVERCOMING YOUR WEAKNESSES.

Image
Matshona Dhliwayo Famously said: "To realize your greatest strengths, you must first overcome your greatest weaknesses" The reason why so many great people seem perfect or infallible, is not because they are perfect. But because they have learnt how to master their weaknesses. Every man you see has a weak spot. It could be in their character, for some it could be their loved ones, while for others, it could be their lifestyle. But ultimately, human beings by nature have weaknesses they all try to hide. Now, this is where the problem lies, because you shouldn't be hiding your weaknesses or pretending that they do not exist. Instead you should be confronting your weaknesses, because facing them head on is what will make you overcome them and prevent others from using them against you. The first step to overcoming your weaknesses is: Identifying and Admitting Your Weaknesses You cannot solve a problem, until you identify what these problems are. The same applies to

Unhealthy Competition Is A Dream Killer!

James Altucher Famously Said: "Your competition is not other people but the time you kill, the ill will you create, the knowledge you neglect to learn, the connections you fail to build, the health you sacrifice along the path, your inability to generate ideas, the people around you who don't support and love your efforts, and whatever god you curse for your bad luck" The need to compete with other people, is a profound trait of human beings. It doesn't matter your educational background, your status, family or upbringing. At some point in your life, you must have felt distressed and left behind by your mates. Being left behind must have given birth to the need to compete, to feel among, to belong. However, this need to compete with those around you, needs to to be checked. If it isn't it, will destroy everything you are or will ever be. First of all, it is of great import that you realise that you are a different person and your life is going to progr

HABITS THAT TARNISH YOUR IMAGE

Image
Swami Satchidananda famously: "If you do not pour water on your plant, what will happen? It will slowly wither and die. Our habits will also slowly wither and die away if we do not give them an opportunity to manifest. You need not fight to stop a habit. Just don’t give it an opportunity to repeat itself" Our habits are part of our identity it, it is what defines us, what makes us different from others, what makes us succeed or what makes us fail. Invariably, the type of habits we imbibe will determine if we are respected or disrespected. Habits are they defining quality that presupposes what other people think of us. Nevertheless, it is important to realise that what people think of you doesn't matter, because you can never satisfy human beings. But on the other hand, even though you may not give a damn about what they may say or think. It is pertinent that your Image is not destroyed or marred as a result of your habits or inadequacies. Thus, you have to prote
