“Ignore those that make you fearful and sad, that degrade you back towards disease and death.”
– Rumi
If you’re transforming yourself, you must choose good people as your friends. Good means someone who uplifts you.
If you’re in the wrong company with friends, exit from their influence, for they’ll only degrade you.
Optimistic friends will always be an asset to your mind. In moments of darkness, they’ll help you escape the negative zone.
Alcoholics, narcissists, sexists, and gamblers can’t give you the right way of living, and their company can only bring you long-term pain and suffering.
a man in good company of people
Living alone is better if no one around you shares a positive mindset. At least you’ll not damage yourself by being in the wrong company of people.
