- WHEELBARROW PEOPLE:
This category of people are energy drainers and time wasters. They always expect you to do everything for them. They don’t care about your well-being, only their own. They believe it’s your job to solve their problems. The terrible thing about a “wheelbarrow” is that after you’ve labored to load it, you still have to push it before it moves.
Note: Wheelbarrow people consume your energy, time, and resources.
- MOSQUITO PEOPLE:
These people only come around to suck value out of your life while injecting negativity in return. They seek benefits but never add any real value. The worst part is, just like mosquitoes, they sing your praises only when they want something from you, but once they’re done, they gossip and stab you behind your back.
Note: Mosquito people are only loyal when they benefit from you.
- SCAFFOLDING PEOPLE:
This category includes glory seekers and manipulators. Just because they’ve helped you once, they believe they should control your every move. They want to dictate your direction and make you feel indebted to them forever. Remember, scaffolding is useful only for a short time; keeping it permanently becomes dangerous.
Note: Know when the usefulness of scaffolding people ends, or they’ll block your growth and dim your light.
- CROCODILE PEOPLE:
These are pretenders in disguise. They have no pure motives, only hidden agendas. They get close to learn your secrets and later use that information against you at the slightest disagreement. Crocodile people are expert liars, gossipers, and manipulators.
Note: They fake empathy to make you vulnerable, only to attack when you least expect it.
- CHAMELEON PEOPLE:
They are envious and full of jealousy. They pretend to support you but secretly compete with you. They watch your progress, waiting for your mistakes, and never celebrate your success. A chameleon friend won’t help you rise but will highlight your every fall.
Note: A jealous friend can go to any length to sabotage your dreams and destroy your peace.
- NAYSAYER PEOPLE:
These are dream killers. They never believe in your goals and will always tell you why your ideas won’t work. They highlight your failures and ignore your progress. When you look for solutions, they create more problems.
Note: Naysayers have no dreams of their own, so they’ll never support yours.
- GARBAGE PUSHER PEOPLE:
The worst of all. They bring nothing but negativity and toxic energy. Their lives are filled with drama, complaints, and bad news. They spread discouragement and demoralizing stories wherever they go.
Note: Garbage pushers are always the first to post or share negative, unhelpful, and heartbreaking information.
You know who these people are, we all have them in our circles.
But it’s your responsibility to examine your life and decide who stays and who goes.
Your direction in life depends on your connections. Surround yourself with people who lift you higher, not those who pull you down.
