Letting another person's negativity impact you

From time to time we'll come across people who look for the negative in everything.

When we're around negative people there's a chance that their negative energy will have an impact on us.

For example, if they're always talking about what's going wrong in their life, we might find ourselves talking about what's going wrong with our life just to participate in the conversation.

For some people finding the negative in most things is a habit rather than representing who they really are so it's important that we don't get 'sucked' into the negativity and find ourselves participating in the same habitual behaviour.
