Stay away from Energy Vampires
You wouldn’t believe this, but your best friend would be an Energy Vampire. It is imperative to understand that every human have in them positive vibrations and negative vibrations. Yes indeed. This can easily be verified with the following social experiment.
Just walk into a room which houses the person whom you dislike, your aura or the vibe that you throw out would changes drastically. Why? Because the minds of people communicate even before the mouth opens to spill out a word.
Now coming back to the topic of Energy vampires. Have you ever noted why people wear Expensive Jewelry? The main reason is to receive compliments and validations from those who are around them.
Now there might be millions who would out rightly deny this, and would say that the very reason that they wear Expensive Jewelry is to make them feel better. Well, even in that case, the feeling generated is largely due to the awareness that the mind produces that people are noticing you, and that peps you up in return.
Now, in any case, the essence of a compliment is involved. Now, you ought to know that compliments are made up of words and words have the power to make or break one’s life.
Imagine you walk into a gym and you see a 300 pound man trying to do push ups. Now the moment when he completes his first push up, if you were to spill a word or two, say, “Buddy, you did well, now go for the next one, you will look good”
This man who is fat and sick and had never volunteered out of his comfy zone, now gets that pep from you, and starts to really think, “Well, may be he is right, let me go for the next one”
It is imperative to understand sometimes even if it wasn’t true the act of telling something favorable will bring the summer rain into a person’s life. After all, we all need these peps to keep the grind on.
However this post is not to deal on those who give the pep talks and words but on those who do the exact opposite.
The Discouraging friend
Have you ever noted, the very friend who had encouraged you in the gym to life more, suddenly starts to critique your abs. Telling you that your abs are so big and wide that their very sight would drive all girls out, and that you need to spend more time getting the abs out rather than building your chest or biceps, so on and so forth.
Comments from so called friends are always too common in every area of life. If they don’t target your body, they would target your dress, or worse still at times the attacks might even be on your past issues that you had shared.
The question is why do so called close friends do these? The main reason being you have chosen to better yourself. Now, you had the magic formula that goes by the word, “Consistency”, day and night you hit on your grind. Obviously with each passing day, the outer self would shine brilliantly.
Most can’t take that, be it your close friend or may be even your family. Now, with bitterness in her heart, the so called friend might hit you with her negative vibration. “Hey girl, you are too thick now, may be you should go on dieting”
Now, since this comes from your friend, you actually think, she is telling you the truth and head straight on to a fasting cycle. You don’t even realize that by this act, your hormones are getting mashed up and your moods are high and low and no concrete action is doable. Slowly boredom takes over you and you become a ball of mess.
Now, tell us the best person who would be happy about your predicament? Your best friend. She knows now that you are back to square one, and there you shall stay. For every time you try to rise up, the Ax from her would come hurling in at you in form of words.
They say, when you put Crabs in a bucket. don’t bother to close it. For the minute one Crab starts its climb, 3 others will pull it down.
The Moral, watch with whom you are hanging out with.
