Listen ""You've got to learn to leave the table when love's no longer being served." Teach Different with Nina Simone - Self-Preservation"
Episode Synopsis
What's the best way to deal with negative people?
Negative people are everywhere, in the classroom, at home, or at the workplace. We often feel trapped and forced to be patient with people who bring us down. Sometimes we have the option of fleeing these situations, especially when negativity turns to hate. Escape from negative people can preserve our integrity and save our energies for people who bring out the best in us. Making smart choices about the people with whom we associate is really important for our chances for happiness.
This podcast explores the nature of loyalty and the struggle that everyone has in knowing when and if they should let go of the people who are bringing them down.
