As we travel on this journey of life we encounter people that we have a common interest with. The relationships we form during this time will be important to our future success.

Some of the relationships we form while in this moment will be toxic. When you have a toxic friend or find yourself involved with toxic people you will find yourself drained emotionally, physically and spiritually.

You will spend most of your energy trying to stay positive after being drained from these people which will influence other areas of your life.

If you have friends that have more than 1 of the following attitudes, it may be advantageous to drop them from your day to day circle of people you associate with. You will benefit a great deal in your life when you do.

1 – They are in a constant storm of complaining. They complain about all things before they hear the facts.

2 –They are always short with other people when communicating.

3 – They never like the fact that you spend time with other people.

4 –They quickly go from calm to hostile.

5 –They make you the brunt of jokes in front of others.

6 –They make you feel like a total drain after talking to them.

7 –They always dominate the conversation.

8 -They never seem to like other people at all.

If your friend has more than one of these attitudes you will start to feel the change within yourself after a few days without them around. Start to wean yourself away from these people before they drain all the energy from you.

It may be difficult to do in the beginning, but it is necessary for your life of success.

Enjoy The Journey!
