We all have clutter in our lives. We must look through it and decide what should be kept or thrown out. Sometimes the best clutter to reduce in your life aren’t things, but people. There comes a time when you need to reduce certain people from your life. You must really pay attention to who you surround yourself with.
Look at the people you associate with. Do they add to your life or do they take away from your life?Do they add positive or negative energy? Do they build you up or do they go out of their way to make you feel inferior? How do they make you feel when you’re around them? Do they build you up and make you feel genuinely valuable? These are questions we all need to ask ourselves.
Don’t allow people to use you. If you get to a point where you are the one giving and giving and giving, that is an issue. You and your partner and you and your friends and you and your family should be adding to each other. There should be reciprocity of love and respect. You must recognize any type of disrespect coming towards you and implement boundaries.
Just as you would look through things in your home to decide what you no longer need, you must do the same in your relationships. You need to get rid of the excess of negativity and toxicity you get from others. Get rid of the clutter in your life and help to give yourself the peace you need.
