Life Lesson 131: Beware of people who are not out for your best interest

Dear Readers,

I hope that you are having a good day. My day is going great so far. It is thundering and lightning outside so I am trying to get some work done before the lights go out. In any event, I was thinking about people who know me and the people who are not out for my best interest. The people who know me are people who have been around me since I was small. But the people who are not out for my best interest are people who claim to support me but they talk about me behind my back. Today, I am gonna talk about the ways that you can tell if a person is out for your best interest or not.

Let's start....

People who hate you are not out for your best interest. These people do not want to see you do anything that can increase your livelihood. They want to see you fail at everything that you try to do. But these people cannot hurt you unless you let them hurt you. Today, aim to stay away from people who hate you. They do not want to see you succeed so there is no need in even hanging around them.

People who talk about you are not out for your best interest. These people will spread lies about you because they are not happy with their own lives. They will tell people that you are someone that you are not. Overall, these people want to tear down your integrity because they want to get people to focus on them and their lives. If people are talking about you, it is time to end your friendship with them.

Lastly, people who are out to get lots of attention may not be out for your best interest. These people will do anything to draw attention to themselves. They will throw you under the bus so that they can enjoy their time in the spotlight. If people are always seeking attention, that means that they do not care about what they have to do to maintain a certain amount of attention from other people. Attention is nice but it could put those attention-seeking people under a microscope that will reveal their true character.

Some people are not out for your interest but that should not stop you from pursuing your dreams.
