NEGATIVISM
By Maharukh Dalal
It takes one minute for negativity to destroy the progress you’ve spent years building.
Because success isn’t about talent or skills.
It’s about your environment.
Look around.
Most people stay stuck in environments where you are:
→ Being drained by endless drama
→ Absorbing negativity that limits your thinking
→ Surrounded by people who secretly resent your success
If no one around you is pushing you forward, something needs to change.
You need people who:
- Challenge Your Thinking
→ They expect your best, not excuses
→ They push you beyond your comfort zone
→ They ask questions that expand your perspective
- Celebrate Your Wins
→ They amplify your strengths
→ They genuinely cheer your wins
→ They share opportunities, not jealousy
- Solve, Not Complain
→ They bring solutions to problems
→ They focus on possibilities, not limitations
→ They create energy rather than consume it
But not everyone around you needs to be a go-getter.
Some friends are there to make you laugh, keep you grounded
and remind you there’s more to life.
You need both to grow:
→ People who challenge you
→ People who keep you human
How important do you think it is to have both kinds of people in your life? ⬇️
