They also vastly tell about our personality, and other individuals could easily appreciate your character by gauging the type of people you relate with.
Like the saying goes, “Birds of the same feathers flock together” barely elucidates the prior assertion. Hence the company we hang out with is a huge object of leverage.
We always have assorted aspects of people in our circles, each possessing varied traits, the “good and bad.” We find ourselves accustomed to these people, our peers, have fun with them, leisure, go out with them, converse and communicate with them with which we establish special kinds of bonds.
These connections we establish with them are meant to have a constructive impact on us in our lives, careers, education, marriages, and health, thus giving us recommendations for the right path. Sadly, not all turn out that way.
We end up being in setbacks, losses having backlashes in our objectives, and weird modifications in our behaviour. These are deeply rooted in the influence of those individuals in our company. These anchors are “cancerous” and fatally harmful to us.
We are usually blinded by their actions and fail to notice that our keeping around them keeps us sinking at times due to our fear of the outcomes.
In this blog, I’ll share the red flags that should make you decide and evaluate whether you’re hanging out with the right company!
Stay away from individuals that keep you active in retarding activities that yield no affirmative outcomes.
They are never uptight about developmental activities, ideas, or anything of the sort. They find more joy and satisfaction in enjoyment and relaxation. For instance, a friend who’ll always urge you to hang out and chill, have a few drinks, relax, spend money under the thought of “Life’s short.” Enjoyment is good, no doubt, but this shouldn’t be frequent. If the company you’ve got constantly drives you to enjoyment and relaxation activities, you’ll end up being unproductive. This is fatal!
They make you feel comfortable with whatever stage you’re at.
A company that won’t push you to your ‘maxima’ is no good company. Normally, we should always exhaust ourselves to the best of our endeavours and undertakings; you should keep around people who push you to do better and not settle for less. Are you in such a situation? Vacate before it’s too late
They never feel happy about your accomplishments.
Such people are the kind who won’t feel happy about your achievements, however small they may be. We are happy for others, celebrate their small wins, and recognize them to keep them going. Suddenly the kind of bad company wouldn’t recognize the efforts you make! And to them, your accomplishments don’t matter. That is not good company!
They are never there for you when you’re most vulnerable.
In life, we are meant to face ups and downs, that’s no doubt. But you can notice how people frown away in situations when you’re faced with life’s hardest jabs being thrown away. One thing with bad company, when things go wrong, they are never there to offer a hand or help when you’re most vulnerable, and they’ll have all sorts of excuses why they couldn’t hop in. They only show up when things are right. Be wise!
Never confuse people who are always around you with people who are always there for you. Gee Linder
It’s never too late to take a step. Though we are at times held back by our fears over issues evolving around “What will happen next?” Or how could we cope up with life without these individuals when we finally let go of them, not knowing we’ve ever been living fine before we even came to know about them.
Cut the ties if you notice these indicators are surfacing, and my advice is that you do this gradually.
Decrease the time you spend with them and realize how much you’ve lost so that you could catch up. I’d be much obliged if you left a like or feedback on what your thoughts are and what you’d like me to share. Be blessed and chose the right company!
