RE: The Ones Who Steal Your Dreams - You Must Be Careful.....

in #blog6 years ago

How true. The sad fact is that we don't realize how many people we come in contact with in on a day to day basis - inc. family - can have such a detrimental effect on our self-worth, confidence and opportunities because one doesn't realize - and wouldn't want to accept if they did - that often it is those that are meant to love and support you the most that do the most damage.

There are some ways to recognize these people. Here are some tell-tale signs to be wary of:

Those people who make you feel defensive, and one way or another will criticize or point out worst case scenarios whenever you have an idea, opportunity or any new venture that they are not directly involved in or haven't suggested themselves.

People who keep suggesting that you make changes to your appearance, from clothes, to your hairstyle or colour and of course weight. And they won't be direct; it'll be something like "you know highlights are in now, no one is choosing one colour anymore', or "are you going out like that?"

They will be critical or indifferent about friends or significant others who have strong characters and over whom they have no control.

Those are just a few basic traits, but one thing is certain; deep down you are never left feeling good after seeing these people and sometimes you don't even know why.
