Don’t Listen to Negative People: 3 Reasons Why

Negative people are everywhere, but the question you have to ask yourself is this: should you listen to them? If they were happy and positive all the time, it would be one thing, but most of the time, they just complain about everything under the sun. If you’re constantly absorbing negativity, it’s like taking poison – so why do it? Here are three reasons why you shouldn’t listen to negative people.

1) Criticism will always exist

It doesn’t matter if you’re starting a business, losing weight or trying to quit smoking, someone is going to have something negative (or just plain stupid) to say about it. Your goal is to separate yourself from all of that negative energy and keep moving forward. There will always be people telling you no, and why you shouldn’t be doing what you want. Ignore them! Don’t listen; instead, focus on your goals and what YOU want out of life. If someone has an opinion about how you should be living your life, let them live it for themselves! You do things for yourself because no one else can achieve happiness for us but ourselves. Don’t let other people bring down your dreams or ambitions by taking credit for them!

2) Don’t worry about what you cant control

The best thing you can do for yourself when dealing with a difficult situation is to stop worrying about things you have no control over. If someone says something negative about you, or if your business idea gets shot down, don’t allow yourself to stress over it – you have no power to change what they say or do. It doesn’t matter how much time and effort you put into working on a project; all that matters is whether or not it will be successful in executing your vision. Instead of wasting time trying to please everyone, spend that energy working towards making your dream come true.

3) Successful people will always find ways to deal with criticism

they’ll get over it, they’ll ignore it, or they’ll take it and make something of it. Criticism isn’t always bad; if you look at criticism from a perspective that focuses on adding value, then there is usually something you can learn from someone who is willing to speak up and share their opinion. But some critics may not be worth listening to —-whether because they don’t have your best interests in mind or because they are just trying to be jerks–and sometimes giving those people a piece of your mind is exactly what they deserve. Just know that while positive people will lift you up when you need it most, negative people will only bring you down.
