no drama

My life is drama free but negative people/ things seem to come my way. It is very hard to cut people loose that are family/friends but it's a tough love thing that must be done. I've dealt enough with negative people and things in my life. 

The thing that bothers me the most is that no matter what you say or try to help them improve their situation they don't listen. So I am thinking why come to me with your situation if you don't want hear my advice?  Every positive solution I give you it gets shut down.

To keep my life from being Toxic I must remove the negative, manipulative people out of my life. I've got to ask myself some questions about these people. First, does this person actively seek to better improve their situation or betterment? Second, does this person help me or my life any way? Third, what negative/toxic habits this person has? And, final by removing this person how does this help me in my life in short & long term?

The first two questions my answer was NO. I didn't need to go any further. It's time for me to stop wasting my time with these people. Now the process begins. 

First, I have to let them know that I'm living a simple, positive, goal driven life. Then I have to remove myself from contact, delete numbers, remove from social media and ignore them totally.

Now I have to remind myself not to feel bad. I'm not responsible for their life and their development if they don't want to change themselves or their situation. I shall pray for them and place them in God's hands.
