Negative people should be avoided.

A depressed person cannot free another from depression.
One sleeping person cannot wake another sleeping person.
Just like the negative thinking people around you will never let you succeed.
When you are always up and down with these negative people then you will get frustrated and then you will think that success is the golden deer.
Then it seems that a drama is waiting for us and we will be successful in the last scene of that drama.
We will wait for years to see that drama but that drama will never come in our life.
So these negative people should be avoided in all areas of life.
