A Negative Attitude

A negative attitude: this one trait keeps people from achieving great things in life and they don’t even know it. A pessimistic person is someone who always looks at life as though it is some kind of hell they have been forced to endure. This is someone who always looks at the down side of everything: it is too hot or too cold, too sunny, or too rainy. In families, a mother or father with a negative attitude will project this view of life to their children and a terrible cycle of negativity will continue. In a company, a person with a negative attitude can become a cancer that sickens all those around him or her. The expression “one bad apple can ruin the barrel” could not be truer. One negative person can affect your team, your department, your customers and a whole company if this person stays around too long.

There are a lot of people out there that spend much of their energy gossiping, talking ill of others, or being negative. I call these people “energy drains.” If you know someone who is an energy drain, avoid them at all costs. If you must spend time with them, always limit it and make sure to give yourself a good dose of positive thought before and after you spend time with them.
