Thing #6 An Appropriate Feed for this Stage in My Life

I subscribed to the Cool Cat Teacher feed and didn't find educational insight, but insight into life itself. The article Look for the Happiness Drain and PLUG IT! was appropriate for the stage of my life that I'm going through. The author instructed readers to stay away from people who are never happy and suck the happiness from your life. The author puts some people in the unconditional column; children and spouses. She says that you must listen to their rantings. Others she says you should distance yourself from in order to avoid their poison.

  1. Amen to that! I used to feel guilty about not wanting to be around certain people, and then I realized, I wasn't a very nice person when I was around them....so now, I try to avoid them if I can so I don't have to be sucked into their drama! :)

  2. I totally agree! That's why I stay out of the teacher's lounge...lol. I am a firm believer that most people mold to those around them. So, one should try to surround themselves with positive and confident people.
