It is trash day and on this #TrashItThursday, we are going to talk about releasing people from the ties that bind you and just trash them.
Are you one of millions of people who try so hard to gain the acceptance of people that you keep them in your life way longer than you ever should have? I am pretty sure that you can answer yes to this questions as there are not too many people who can just skip over this question. These people that I speak of are toxic to your life, to your goals, to your journey and to your health but do not be too off put because I have a few practical ways to rid your life of this toxicity.
The first way to remove a toxic person from your life is to never expect that person to change. A toxic person will always try and convince you that they can change but all that convincing means is a hopeless situation for you. Do not allow yourself to get pulled into their world. A toxic person does not care about their relationship with you rather, they are consumed with their own problems and needs. If you pay attention to what they say or do, you will see that they in fact do not want you, they need you and that need comes with a heavy price tag on you. The sooner you realize this, the sooner you will be able to move on.
A second way to rid toxic people from your life is to maintain strict boundaries because toxic people will drain you mentally, emotionally and financially. If you allow those boundaries to be broken, you will find yourself constantly compromising your beliefs just to fulfill their need of you and their needs are never ending. If you feel a sense of uncomfortability, that is a sign your boundaries are being pushed. Make sure you back them up and back them away from you or they will suck you in to their nightmare of a life.
This third way of ridding your life of toxic people is to not allow yourself to be forced into their crises. Toxic people always have some sort of crisis happening and they are always searching for people to help them solve their problems. The worst part of this is that if you are unable to help them with their crisis, they will begin to blame you for those said crises allowing you to remain in that situation and they will feed on your emotions and they will slowly eat away at your very being. You must walk away if you want to maintain your sanity.
So, although there are many other ways to try and rid your life of toxic people, these three practical ways are my choices for you to always practice and always implement them into your daily life especially because it is extremely difficult to avoid toxic people altogether so be prepared.
I feel for this topic, it is important for you to learn more about what to do and what not to do in these situations so I am going to suggest you read the book called Toxic People. Borrow a copy from your local library or maybe a friend. If neither option is available, here is a link for you to get your own copy from Amazon>>> https://amzn.to/2SKAyRB
