10 Toxic People You
Should Avoid At All Costs
Wonderful Thought
Mr Ankitkumar Brahmbhatt
(M)8905665700
10/21/2016
In this the types of human being are shown in nature you found and the way how to deal with them.
2
1. The Gossip
"Great minds discuss ideas, average ones discuss events, and small minds
discuss people." - Eleanor Roosevelt
Gossipers derive pleasure from other people's misfortunes. It might be fun to
peer into somebody else's personal or professional faux pas at first, but over
time, it gets tiring, makes you feel gross, and hurts other people. There are too
many positives out there and too much to learn from interesting people to waste
your time talking about the misfortune of others.
2. The Temperamental
Some people have absolutely no control over their emotions. They will lash out
at you and project their feelings onto you, all the while thinking that you're the
one causing their malaise. Temperamental people are tough to dump from your
life because their lack of control over their emotions makes you feel bad for
them. When push comes to shove though, temperamental people will use you as
their emotional toilet and should be avoided at all costs.
3. The Victim
Victims are tough to identify because you initially empathize with their
problems. But as time passes, you begin to realize that their "time of need" is all
the time. Victims actively push away any personal responsibility by making
every speed bump they encounter into an uncrossable mountain. They don't see
tough times as opportunities to learn and grow from; instead, they see them as
an out. There's an old saying: "Pain is inevitable but suffering is optional." It
perfectly captures the toxicity of the victim, who chooses to suffer every time.
4. The Self-Absorbed
Self-absorbed people bring you down through the impassionate distance they
maintain from other people. You can usually tell when you're hanging around
self-absorbed people because you start to feel completely alone. This happens
because as far as they're concerned, there's no point in having a real connection
between them and anyone else. You're merely a tool used to build their self-
esteem.
3

5. The Envious
To envious people, the grass is always greener somewhere else. Even when
something great happens to envious people, they don't derive any satisfaction
from it. This is because they measure their fortune against the world's when they
should be deriving their satisfaction from within. And let's face it, there's always
someone out there who's doing better if you look hard enough. Spending too
much time around envious people is dangerous because they teach you to
trivialize your own accomplishments.
6. The Manipulator
Manipulators suck time and energy out of your life under the façade of
friendship. They can be tricky to deal with because they treat you like a friend.
They know what you like, what makes you happy, and what you think is funny,
but the difference is that they use this information as part of a hidden agenda.
Manipulators always want something from you, and if you look back on your
relationships with them, it's all take, take, take, with little or no giving. They'll
do anything to win you over just so they can work you over.
7. The Dementor
In J. K. Rowling's "Harry Potter" series, Dementors are evil creatures that suck
people's souls out of their bodies, leaving them merely as shells of humans.
Whenever a Dementor enters the room, it goes dark, people get cold, and they
begin to recall their worst memories. Rowling said that she developed the
concept for Dementors based on highly negative people--the kind of people who
have the ability to walk into a room and instantly suck the life out of it.
Dementors suck the life out of the room by imposing their negativity and
pessimism upon everyone they encounter. Their viewpoints are always glass
half empty, and they can inject fear and concern into even the most benign
situations. A Notre Dame University study found that students assigned to
roommates who thought negatively were far more likely to develop negative
thinking and even depression themselves.
8. The Twisted
4
There are certain toxic people who have bad intentions, deriving deep
satisfaction from the pain and misery of others. They are either out to hurt you,
to make you feel bad, or to get something from you; otherwise, they have no
interest in you. The only good thing about this type is that you can spot their
intentions quickly, which makes it that much faster to get them out of your life.
9. The Judgmental
Judgmental people are quick to tell you exactly what is and isn't cool. They
have a way of taking the thing you're most passionate about and making you
feel terrible about it. Instead of appreciating and learning from people who are
different from them, judgmental people look down on others. Judgmental
people stifle your desire to be a passionate, expressive person, so you're best off
cutting them out and being yourself.
10. The Arrogant
Arrogant people are a waste of your time because they see everything you do as
a personal challenge. Arrogance is false confidence, and it always masks major
insecurities. A University of Akron study found that arrogance is correlated
with a slew of problems in the workplace. Arrogant people tend to be lower
performers, more disagreeable, and have more cognitive problems than the
average person.
How to Protect Yourself Once You Spot 'Em
Toxic people drive you crazy because their behavior is so irrational. Make no
mistake about it--their behavior truly goes against reason, so why do you allow
yourself to respond to them emotionally and get sucked into the mix?
The more irrational and off-base someone is, the easier it should be for you to
remove yourself from their traps. Quit trying to beat them at their own game.
Distance yourself from them emotionally, and approach your interactions with
them like they're a science project (or you're their shrink if you prefer that
analogy). You don't need to respond to the emotional chaos--only the facts.
Maintaining an emotional distance requires awareness. You can't stop someone
from pushing your buttons if you don't recognize when it's happening.
Sometimes you'll find yourself in situations where you'll need to regroup and
choose the best way forward. This is fine, and you shouldn't be afraid to buy
yourself some time to do so.
5
Most people feel as though because they work or live with someone, they have
no way to control the chaos. This couldn't be further from the truth. Once you've
identified a toxic person, you'll begin to find their behavior more predictable
and easier to understand. This will equip you to think rationally about when and
where you have to put up with them and when and where you don't. You can
establish boundaries, but you'll have to do so consciously and proactively. If
you let things happen naturally, you're bound to find yourself constantly
embroiled in difficult conversations. If you set boundaries and decide when and
where you'll engage a difficult person, you can control much of the chaos. The
only trick is to stick to your guns and keep boundaries in place when the person
tries to cross them, which they will.

They are either out to hurt you, to make you feel bad, or to get something from you; otherwise, they have no interest in you. The only good thing about this type is that you can spot their intentions quickly, which makes it that much faster to get them out of your life. 9. The Judgmental Judgmental people are quick to tell you exactly what is and isn't cool. They have a way of taking the thing you're most passionate about and making you feel terrible about it. Instead of appreciating and learning from people who are different from them, judgmental people look down on others. Judgmental people stifle your desire to be a passionate, expressive person, so you're best off cutting them out and being yourself. 10. The Arrogant Arrogant people are a waste of your time because they see everything you do as a personal challenge. Arrogance is false confidence, and it always masks major insecurities. A University of Akron study found that arrogance is correlated with a slew of problems in the workplace. Arrogant people tend to be lower performers, more disagreeable, and have more cognitive problems than the average person. How to Protect Yourself Once You Spot 'Em Toxic people drive you crazy because their behavior is so irrational. Make no mistake about it--their behavior truly goes against reason, so why do you allow yourself to respond to them emotionally and get sucked into the mix? The more irrational and off-base someone is, the easier it should be for you to remove yourself from their traps. Quit trying to beat them at their own game. Distance yourself from them emotionally, and approach your interactions with them like they're a science project (or you're their shrink if you prefer that analogy). You don't need to respond to the emotional chaos--only the facts. Maintaining an emotional distance requires awareness. You can't stop someone from pushing your buttons if you don't recognize when it's happening. Sometimes you'll find yourself in situations where you'll need to regroup and choose the best way forward. This is fine, and you shouldn't be afraid to buy yourself some time to do so.
  • 5. 5 Most people feel as though because they work or live with someone, they have no way to control the chaos. This couldn't be further from the truth. Once you've identified a toxic person, you'll begin to find their behavior more predictable and easier to understand. This will equip you to think rationally about when and where you have to put up with them and when and where you don't. You can establish boundaries, but you'll have to do so consciously and proactively. If you let things happen naturally, you're bound to find yourself constantly embroiled in difficult conversations. If you set boundaries and decide when and where you'll engage a difficult person, you can control much of the chaos. The only trick is to stick to your guns and keep boundaries in place when the person tries to cross them, which they will.
