[@geraldquist2209]

True words. Ultimately, we have to make our own decisions and take action. Negativity can kill a person.

[@BrendenSharp]

I was a Sergeant, helicopter crew chief in US Air Force Rescue and likely would have made a career of it and gone the whole 20, if I were not surrounded by toxic negative losers. We had a house in Phoenix, I was working on electronics at Sperry which included the F-15 and the Space Shuttle.... same thing then with the negative people, I left that job. I am done with negative people, they have done more damage than a war.

[@plumduff3303]

Sorry to hear that bud

[@LindaR-xh5hf]

So sorry. It's the truth - people leave manager's (toxic people) not jobs/careers.

[@johns126]

I have so much respect for positive people - how much better is life when you engage with them.

[@BrendenSharp]

Hey John thanks for watching and leaving a comment here as I do really appreciate it. I agree with your comment 100%. You've got to spend as much time as possible with positive people that want to move forward in life as a negative people can really drag you down. Good luck on your own path ahead and make sure you have a great day today mate 👍

I spent 26 years with a partner who was very negative. When we eventually broke up I realised I had to use negativity myself because he was always negative which gave me the freedom to always be positive. It was a bit of a shock to have to delve into negativity myself! Luckily I don't have negative people in my life now. As you get older you do realise you have to look after yourself only because nobody else is going to do it, which is fine, it's no good being dependent on others. Have a lovely day. I enjoyed walking with you virtually. 😊

[@BrendenSharp]

Hey Rachel thanks for watching and leaving a comment here as I do appreciate it. Glad you enjoyed the walk and talk and you make sure you have a great day today 👍

[@doctork1708]

Toxicity involves more than being negative. There’s gossiping, constant drama, false positivity bs, incessant religious bs, high levels of absolute stupidity, all the nosey busybodies…

[@BrendenSharp]

Thanks for watching and leave you a comment. I think the key is to be aware of it and just shut it down as soon as you experience it. Good luck on your own path ahead and make sure you have a great day today mate 👍

[@normapadro420]

Hello Sir. I love those places you walk through. I was surrounded by people like that all my life. I began fighting back when I began breaking down. They attacked my self esteem to the point where I was just taking care of myself, but couldn't see my face in the mirror at all. It was horrible. I'm still picking up the pieces. From time to time I see my body lop sided, or distorted. They are dangerous people. It's like a virus that tears into your brain, and doesn't let go. This person knew what they were doing.

[@BrendenSharp]

Hey thanks for watching and leave me a comment here as I do appreciate it I'm sorry to hear about the issues you had in your past and hopefully you've set yourself on the right pathway forward now. Good luck in the future and make sure you have a great day today 👍

[@user-cn1gz5kn1f]

I know someone that's positively negative

[@ErnestPerez-rg2uo]

I sure could have used these during my work career. Fortunately in retirement, I am involved with positive people.

[@BrendenSharp]

Hey Ernest thanks for watching and leaving a comment here as I do really appreciate it. Grade you're spending time with more positive people now as you deserve to be around positive people. Good luck on the path ahead and make sure you have a great day today 👍

[@frankducett9]

I don't cate about their underlying reasons, or if they ever change, I have a bicycle to ride, a floor to mop and a dog that is crazy about me.

[@allenreid62]

Sometimes I find that I'm too negative, so I'll probably have to use these secrets on myself!

This video is close to home for me, thanks. Your videos are terrific, if you plan tennis anything like you make videos, Rod Laver lookout!

[@BrendenSharp]

Hey Frank thanks for watching and the compliments as I do appreciate it. I think everyone should be able to relate to this topic.

[@tonychapman-r8q]

Thanks Brenden as always great advice, best wishes from the uk 🇬🇧

Thanks for watching and positive comments as I do really appreciate it. Make sure you have a great day today mate 👍

[@SeanC1959]

This is such a relevant video for me Brenden. I have a couple friends who, unfortunately are narcissistic. I've had to distance myself from them somewhat as their views can be toxic and negative........ I've had to do this for my own mental well being. Thank you as always for your valuable insights.

[@BrendenSharp]

Hey Sean thanks for watching again and leaving another comment as I do appreciate it. You always have to remember to look after yourself because if you don't know when else will. As always good luck with the path ahead and make sure you have a great day today mate 👍

[@glenstribling6123]

I think finally getting to the point of distancing yourself from negative/toxic people is part of becoming whole or adult. It's like putting that part of your life out of its misery.

[@BrendenSharp]

@@glenstribling6123 Hey Glenn thanks for commenting as I do appreciate it. I agree with your comment too. Good luck on your own pathway and have a great day today mate 👍

[@RickAguilar-m2c]

Like this video!! Keep up the good work!! 👍

[@yvonnejackson1696]

Good suggestions 👍. This is a good project in the US due to the highly contentious political situation. However one of my cousins simply says, “I don’t want to talk about that right now.” Then she repeats this as many times as is necessary. Never seen it fail.-I learn from people with good solutions.

[@lenorelopez748]

Great suggestions! And you are inspiring me to start walking!

[@BrendenSharp]

Hey Lenore thanks for watching and leaving comment here as I do really appreciate it. If I inspired you to start walking it's great news as it's a great exercise that's easy to do on a daily basis. Good luck in your path ahead and make sure you have a great day today 👍

[@janetmurphy9378]

Thanks Brenden for your videos. You are doing a great job of helping others to improve their day. Me included. 😊

Thank you for another great video, I love your walking spaces. Could I ask what microphone you use on your jacket? Thanks!

[@BrendenSharp]

I use the osmo pocket 3 camera which you can purchase with the DJI mic 2. I highly recommend both as they are fantastic

[@darlenesmith7487]

Nice discernment of toxicity to the square root. Stay safe. ❤️ ❤

I just had my therapy session with this video ! The gray rock method ! never heard that one before. Interesting!, I will try it.

[@BrendenSharp]

@@YugoGV Hey thanks for watching and leaving a comment here as I do appreciate it. I'm happy if you just took one point for this video and you can use it in your own life. Good luck on your path ahead and make sure you have a great day today 👍

[@Mrs.Dalloway-y9h]

We need to face the fact there is a great deal in the world today to feel negative about and to not see any meaningful solutions to. The trick is in turning your focus toward those things that uplift you and give you hope. That can take some work on your part but with practise, you can begin to see the positive in most situations. Remember that every day can't be the best you've ever had, but that the rain brings renewal and beauty.

[@BrendenSharp]

Thanks for watching and commenting here Mrs Dalloway as I really appreciate it. Sounds to me like you've got the right attitude. Make sure you have a great day today 👍

There needn't be any reasons why complaining people complain. There can be, but needn't be. The stoics advised us to be grateful. Schopenhauer stated quite correctly, that the better off we are, from a material standpoint, the pettier our complaints tend to be. First world problems, so to speak. Perhaps the perpetual complainers are spoiled? They've forgot, or never learned, the order of things. They might need to lose something, in order to develop a more balanced perspective and generally become more appreciative.

[@BrendenSharp]

Thanks for watching and leave me a comment here as I do appreciate it. I'm a big stoic fan and have been listening to lots of podcasts and reading a couple of books. I think stoicism is a great way to live your life. Good luck on your own path way ahead and make sure you have a great day today mate 👍

[@IslandlifeTasmania]

G'day from Tassie

[@glenstribling6123]

Bad mouthing others and pointing out faults in everything has become a type of self worth. You see it on the Internet all the time, in politics, at the work place. Since we have dropped morality and hard work as values we seem to be lost and grasping for some sort of worth.

[@BrendenSharp]

Hey Glenn thanks for the comment again. I agree, I think people need to focus on fixing themselves before they worry about trying to fix other people. Good luck on the path ahead and have a great day today mate 👍
