You'll never achieve what you could if you surround yourself with people who bring you down and hold you back. These people will be holding you down. You should avoid negative people at all costs. Who you surround yourself with will dictate where you end up in life. If you surround yourself with losers or people who have poor character, you will be held back. When you shed the deadweight and outgrow these people, you can surround yourself with uplifting and amazing people who are your friends and support you. These people will cheer you on when you're successful and help you achieve greatness. Here's the deadweight you should shed:
Narcissists. These people are only concerned about themselves. They think the world revolves around them, and there's no room for them to love or respect others.
Cheaters. Cheaters' behavior can manifest in different ways. A lot of times, they're going to use you as an excuse. Also, do you want to surround yourself with someone unwilling to do the hard work? It's not acceptable to cheat or mess around.
Pessimists. They see the worst and everything and are always blaming and complaining and bitching. They feel that life is out of their control -- they are enemy vampires who suck the life out of everything. They will rob you of your positive energy bandwidth.
Losers. This broad term refers to those who are not motivated and are okay with being average. You may have grown up with some of these people, and you must outgrow them because of their self-destructive nature and loser mindset.
Gossipers. They're always talking crap behind people's backs.
Liars. You may catch someone in 'insignificant' white lies, but if somebody's lying to you, it means they don't respect you or something's happening with them. Little white lies could potentially become significant big things.
Untrustworthy. If you don't trust somebody around money or your woman, it's not okay. It may not have happened yet, but it will.
Jealous or competitive. Someone who's super jealous or is not happy for you when you achieve, or if they're always trying to compete with you, they do not want to grow together with you.
Assholes. This person is always a jerk to others. They're also mean to their girlfriends, servers, or their parents. They are nasty.
Unreliable. These people do not adhere to what they say they will do. They are not men of their word and will cancel plans last minute or make excuses not to do things.
Energy vampires. These people always have problems and issues. When you give them advice, they don't take it. They will suck the life out of you.
Don't take ownership of their actions. These people don't take responsibility and play the blame game. When they make a mistake, they don't own it.
Dumb. These people do not seek knowledge, and they do not look at other people's opinions. They are one-dimensional and closed-minded. Everything is black and white. Life has a lot of gray areas, so you need to be around people who can constructively think and analyze situations. If someone is rigid and regimented in their belief or ideology, you must eliminate them.
Lacking of integrity. If somebody in your life robs, cheats, and isn't a good person, they should not be your friend. Surround yourself with those who love and support you. You need quality people that are moving in the right direction.

I “broke up” with a close friend of two decades several years ago. There are/were MANY reasons for this (loser mentality, jealous of anyone else’s good fortune, very angry drunk, had extreme political views, etc..), but I still too think about him and wish to myself that he would snap out of it. It’s unfortunate, but hanging out became a chore

[@benshadbolt1465]

You just described a lot of good reasons to break up with a friend. Another would be money which is why I broke with a good friend with and lost ten grand over. Now that I am wiser I won't tell anyone If I won the lottery except Centrelink otherwise I will get hit hard financially and probably have a criminal conviction against my name.

[@craiggertheeunknown]

Always look in the mirror first

[@theurbangentry]

I've been down this road sooooooo many damn times, it's not even funny. I totally relate and understand this. Unfortunately, loyalty, honour and honesty are in VERY short supply with people you meet in life. I am in no way perfect, I have let down others too, but I keep trying. I try to be better, I try like like Aaron always teaches, every single day. The difference is, those that you had to leave behind, or go a different direction from, don't. They never try and often, they don't even want to or see what they are doing wrong. It's sad, but I'm done beating myself up about it, their loss. Onwards and upwards fratello! T.

[@wileyallen1545]

People who appear high class but act low class. Money cannot cover a lack of class, no matter how much you have. The way people speak, act and conduct themselves in public says a lot. F-bombs every 5 seconds labels where you came from. Be courteous, respectful, build up your friends....that's the mark of a real man. Very good points Aaron. Many needed to hear this. Get rid of the anchor if it's pulling down the ship!

I ended a friendship almost 4 years ago. He pretty much was most of the things in this video (jealousy, never owned to his mistakes, narcissist, irresponsible, childish). The list goes on. I haven't talked to him since. He came to my job 2 months ago but I didn't say anything to him. I couldn't even look him in the eye. Sometimes I think about the good times we had but I know I can't go back to that because of the way he is. I hope he gets himself together but something tells me that he won't. Choose your friends wisely, people.

[@Joey21071]

Once again, disagree on the loser part. If your friend isn't motivated that doesn't mean you can't be. If your friend sits around all day smoking weed and playing games, it doesn't mean you have to. Some friends take different paths in life. Some guys are happy working a 40+ hour a week job while other guys want more and they're still friends. If you're the type of guy that drops someone as a friend because they're not motivated and okay with being average, than you're the one doing that person a favor because you were never a friend.

[@Freshsink950]

Wish more people thought like you!!!! Why can't so many people understand that?

[@andrewtuttle9682]

Also, "loser" is kind of a relative term. If the guy who smokes weed and plays video games on his days off is happy living that way and has a lot of friends and a girlfriend who loves him, I don't consider that guy to be a loser. Meanwhile if your boss who is not all that nice of a person and mistreats you at work and doesn't have any friends and is in a failing relationship with his wife who cheats on him, I would say that guy is much more of a loser then the other guy even if your boss meets more of the criteria that one has to meet to be considered successful in a western capitalist society. I say that because I know people like that and most of them are the biggest losers I know, even if society doesn't agree that they are. Having money isn't the be all, end all for being happy or successful in life, and people need to remember that.

[@Joey21071]

@@Freshsink950 I think there are but sadly, after reading a number of comments on here, there aren't many of them on here.

[@Filthy_Larry]

I agree with you guys.

[@Joey21071]

@@andrewtuttle9682 Sadly there are a lot of people who, without even knowing the person, will judge the guy who smokes weed and plays video games and call him a loser. Meanwhile the other guy, simply because he is a boss and no doubt wears nicer clothes is considered something better. That's what this guy is pushing. He's pushing the idea that image matters above all.

[@willleslie2745]

Last year i had to let go of one of my best mates peter due to him having a severe pot and cocaine addiction. Dude is 30 year old, lives at his parents with no rent and has NO money. I told him what he needed to hear (he needs to go to rehab) but he didn't take it well. This year i had to let go of my other best mate because he's irresponsible, told me he will never have money because he loves cocaine. This is what happens when people who have no ambition, hopes and dreams get into drugs. They get lost in it. Stay away.

I’m certainly guilty of some of these myself (e.g. pessimism and unreliable, the latter from years ago where I’d intentionally or unintentionally ditch group plans day of), and only time will tell if dropping these people was the right call, but I can say definitively that so far I’m more focused on myself and my well being/goals and have less stress, which is great.

[@yu-gi-ohclub1348]

I've been wanting to start a business for years because I was sick and tired of dealing with the different businesses i've worked for. I can't wait to start the program and finally do what I've wanted to do for over 15 years.

[@jaredshaw5023]

Someone once told me “a liar is the cheat is a thief! “.

[@kylestraveljournal]

It's tough to do but it has to be done. Had a really close friend who literally fits in most of these categories. We would plan things weeks in advance and he would constantly cancel last minute on me. Lied about his drinking problem and would make up things we could do but only wanted me to stop by to bring him to a package store. We had a lot of good times and at times miss those times but its was such a chore to put up with and I don't miss that.

[@livestock9722]

This pretty much rules out nearly everyone, in reality. I've cut all these types out of my life in order to be more, because I had the friend who put a baby in my girlfriend, I've had business partners who literally screwed me for years of work. Being alone is much easier, and consistently happier. Unfortunately, pessimism seeps in. Even those manosphere men's groups who view life through a superficial lens and advocate cheating because "it's in your biology" is just pathetic. Seriously, if a man can't control his biological urges, why would I trust him in any other situation.

[@andrewtuttle9682]

I think being alone is fine if you're not someone who is prone to loneliness. If you're someone who can handle loneliness in a stoic and sober-minded kind of way, then being alone won't affect you. I just would not want to be the kind of person who doesn't have any friends because I'm just too good for everyone else, because I'm not that kind of person. And also because I remember how shitty it was to literally have no friends. Of course that's just me and I'm not speaking for everyone, including you. I think it's different for everyone.

[@livestock9722]

@@andrewtuttle9682 True, everyone is different. I used to have a rather large friend circle despite never being on social media. I would know someone everywhere I went. Now I'm happier, the less I see anyone. Got so tired of being everyone's "go-to" guy or emotional tampon. Nothing but crickets when I needed someone to lean on through tough times. Most were fairweather friends I guess. Such is life.

Quite a few people are cannabis consumers and successful. I graduated from law school a semester early while occasionally consuming cannabis. I also worked for the largest MSOs across the country.
