Avoid toxic people

And came crashing down from one small interaction with another person?

It's called a run in with a toxic person.

So I have listed the top ten signs of a toxic person so you can avoid them at all cost!

Here they are...

1. Very stiff body language.

2. Unnecessary use of profanity.

3. Sluggish movements.

4. Gossiping.

6. Straight up negative.

7. Hard set face. No smiling.

8. Really shallow breathing.

9. Completely inconsiderate.

10. Not loving, accepting or honest.

These are very toxic people and you don’t want to be anywhere near them. They will bring you down. They will make you feel awful. They will fill your head full of negative thoughts.

Toxic people are their own worst enemy and yours to - if you allow it.

They unconsciously make themselves feel crappy and blame everyone else around them.

That’s why myself and my fellow self esteem builders need to steer clear of these toxic people.

Now if the above list describes a close dear friend or a loving immediate family member then by all means help point them in the right direction.

But don’t waste a whole lot of your time and energy trying to change that person to your view.

If you can just focus on your own strengths and weaknesses and change the person you are, they will notice.

And by noticing sometimes (if their willing to) they will also make a change without you even saying anything to them.

Obviously I’m all for helping people but I don’t spend a whole lot of time trying to help people who don’t want my help.

And you will save yourself a whole lot of frustration and energy by showing these toxic people how to change instead of telling them.
