Negative People

Before I get to the point of tonight’s topic I want to explain what happened today.
Before writing my daily blog post I check out other people’s blog to get ideas on format and ideas, because I had brain surgery when I was a kid and they took my creativity cell out, so now I need to get ideas from others. I have found one of the best ways to do that is to look at the keyword “Empower Network Scam”.

I know this is not the kind of site I should be visiting but they usually point to other Empower Network members personal sites which end up pointing me back to their Empower Network page.

Well today I was checking it out and I came across someone who really feels that
Empower Network is a scam, and it really upset me.

This guy was extremely negative about Empower Network.
Of course my first course of action was going to comment on his blog and let him know that negative people are good for nothing and provide no real value to anyone.
Of course his blog post was closed for comments.
I would give out his web address and name but don’t want to get in any legal trouble.
Not only that but no one else needs to see it.
I just don’t want any potential customers seeing it either.
Anyway, the feeling I had was like someone slapping the teeth out of my granddads mouth, or telling me my kids look like the milk man,
(although I always wondered why my kids have blond hair and blue eyes and my wife and I both have brown hair and brown eyes, and my oldest always calls the milkman uncle)
anyway back to the point,

it really pissed me off.
Here is this guy who has no clue what he is talking about and all he can do is try to steal someone elses dream.
Well I wish I could tell this bucko that if
Empower Network is a scam then how did I get on page one of
Google for a secondary keyword that gets over
22,000 views a month (my little brag their WOOHOO).
I wonder how much this guy made in his online business?
Now negative people would say that 30 people out of how many?
why does that matter at all? It’s 30 people that are making more money than they did last month.
Negative people suck, the guy who wrote the blog sucks and could possibly be stealing business from us.
Then again, the way his blog was written only negative people will read it and believe it.
And do not put me in with the negative people category, that is why I added the “believe it” part.
So what do we do when dealing with negative people?
First thing I think we should do is not deal with them.
I had a couple of friends that have been moved to my acquaintance category only because I realized every time I was around them
I felt like sticking my head in a toilet.
So if you are going to a comedy club and at the end of the night you are crying because your friend hates his or her life then it is time to check them off your list.
Here a couple of different things to avoid with negative people.

1.) Never argue with them regardless of the topic, it is not worth your

time. Misery loves company so let them find other company. I would

suggest telling them to go feed the gators and by the way make sure

they take off their shoes when getting in the water.
2.) Ignore them completely, this is a perfect time to take out your cell

phone and just start talking into it, if they are still their tell them we

got disconnected and answer the phone again. If they say the phone

didn’t ring tell them you have an app for that so only you can hear it.

Negative people are not smart.

3.) Anytime the person says something or does something positive make

sure you acknowledge it by saying good boy or girl you ate all your

vegetables, regardless of what they did. And oh yea pat them on the

head.

4.) An the last and probably the best thing to do is to avoid them all

together. I find sending them to buy doughnuts at the shop 2 or 3 town

over works well.

So a movie that displays a truly negative person is

“I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell” Not a recommendation by the way as it is pretty saucy, but definitely a good example of a negative person.
Now if you like funny saucy comedy’s then definitely a recommendation.

An example of a positive person is in the movie

“Dumb and Dumber” where Jim Carrey tells this girl “so your saying there’s a chance”
after she basically said there was a million to one chance she would go out with him.
Again not a recommendation, but if you have seen either of these movies you will know exactly what I am talking about.

So the main point of this blog post is to

NEVER and I mean NEVER let negative people steal your dreams, no matter what.

If you believe in Empower Network and you haven’t made a sale yet it doesn’t matter you will, it’s only a matter of time.

If you ever want a positive pick me up then call me I am the negative people slayer.
