Even minimal interaction with toxic people can have a huge impact on performance and happiness. So, what can you do about it? Simple, Just try to stay away from these types of negative people, as much as you can!

我们被各种各样的人包围着，虽然没有两个人是一样的，但是有太多的人可以被归类为“有毒的”。即使与有毒的人进行最小程度的互动，也会让你的幸福感大大降低。那么，你能做些什么呢？一句话，尽量远离这些消极的人！

 

Number 1 - Judgmental

Everyone has flaws, and when someone points them out, it can help you improve yourself. However, you should be able to recognize the difference between a person who expresses their concerns honestly and in a constructive manner, and those who use your weaknesses as an opportunity to attack you. If you know someone who is quick to point out and criticize your mistakes, but never seems to recognize your accomplishments, they’re the type of toxic person who is likely to eventually wear you down.

①喜欢给出负面评价的人。每个人都有缺点，当有人指出时，它可以帮助你提高自己。然而，你应该能够认识到，“善意的提醒”和“恶意的攻击”是有本质区别的。如果一个人很轻易就指出并批评你的错误，但却从未认可你成就的人，那么他们就是那种最终会让你精疲力竭的人。

 

Number 2 - Envious

To envious people, the grass is always greener somewhere else. Even when something great happens to them, they don’t derive any satisfaction from it. This is because they measure their fortune against other people’s. And let’s face it, there’s always someone out there who’s doing better. Spending too much time around envious people is dangerous, because they teach you to trivialize your own accomplishments.

②嫉妒心强的人。对于这部分人来说，别人家的草总是更加绿一些。即使发生了什么好事，他们也不会从中得到任何满足。这是因为，他们总是用别人的财富标准来衡量自己的财富。但现实是，总会有人比我们做得更好。跟喜欢嫉妒的人做朋友，是非常危险的，因为他们也会教你，把自己的成就看得微不足道。

 

Number 3 - Needy

These are the people who just want to sit around all day and be served by others, so they don’t have to lift a finger. They want you to be there for them nonstop… and if you dare try to point out their wrong doings, they know how to make you feel guilty and ashamed. So if there’s someone in your life with similar traits, you should try to avoid them.

③贪得无厌之人。 这些人只想整天坐在那里，享受别人的服务，连手指都不抬一下。他们想让你不停地陪着他们……如果你敢指出他们的错误行为，他们知道如何让你感到内疚和羞耻。所以，如果你的生活中，有这样的人，你应该尽量避免接触他们。

 

Number 4 - Pessimists

These kinds of people tend to see only the negative side of everything. They always ignore the bright side of things and deliberately try to bring others down. It’s like they’ve decided for themselves that everything in life is bad, and by blocking out any positive emotions, they will avoid getting hurt. But, they just end up hurting others instead! It’s best to stay away from pessimists. They will only fill you with negativity and despair.

④悲观主义者。这些人往往只看到事物的消极一面。他们总是忽视事物的光明面，故意想把别人打倒。他们自己坚信，人生就是负面的，生活中的每件事都是不好的，通过阻止任何积极的情绪，他们将避免受到伤害。但是，他们最终只会伤害别人！最好远离悲观主义者。他们只会让你充满消极和绝望。

 

Number 5 - Liars

Little white lies usually aren’t harmful, and most people do it every now and then. For example, when you throw a surprise party for someone, you have to lie a little, in order to keep it a surprise, right? But there are many habitual liars who will lie to make themselves feel better, or to look better in others’ eyes. Toxic people who lie frequently can destroy you. They leave you no room for trust in a relationship. In order to grow, you have to surround yourself with trustworthy people who will support you and offer candid and honest opinions.

⑤谎话精。善意谎言通常是无害的，大多数人偶尔也会这样做。例如，当你为某人举办惊喜派对时，你必须撒一点谎，以保持惊喜，对吧？但是有很多撒谎成性的人， 他们说谎是为了让自己感觉更好，或者想在别人眼中维持一个好的形象。经常撒谎的人会毁了你。他们让你在一段关系中没有信任的余地。为了成长，你必须让自己身边有值得信赖的人，他们会支持你，提供坦诚和诚实的意见。

 

Number 6 - Complainers

We all have shitty days. Life doesn’t always go as we want it to, and sometimes we just need to vent. But then, there are those who complain all the time! Nothing is ever good enough. Nothing is ever right. Nothing is ever going their way. And they feel the need to share it with you! They keep repeating the same mistakes over and over, and they refuse to take responsibility for their choices. For all that’s going wrong in their lives, they blame everyone but themselves.

⑥喜欢抱怨的人。我们都有过糟糕的日子。生活并不总是如我们所愿，有时我们也需要发泄。但是，也有人却一直抱怨！没有什么会让他们漫游，什么都是错的，任何事情都不合他们的心意。而且他们觉得有必要和你分享这些！他们一遍又一遍地重复着同样的内容，他们拒绝为自己的选择来承担责任。对于他们生活中的所有错误，他们只会怪别人，从来不在自己身上找问题。

 

Number 7 - Drama Queens

These people need to be the center of attention. They create a crisis everywhere they go. They’ll often pit one person against the other and then sit back and enjoy the show. They welcome trouble, and then make other people’s lives hell. The good thing is, these trouble makers are easy to spot, so it won’t be too hard to avoid them.

⑦戏精。这些人需要成为众人关注的焦点。他们到处制造危机。他们经常让一个人和另一个人开战，然后坐下来欣赏表演。他们喜欢制造麻烦，然后让别人的生活变成地狱。好在，这些麻烦制造者很容易被发现，所以想避免他们也不会太难。

 

Number 8 - Gossipers

Some people derive pleasure from other people’s misfortunes. They enjoy spreading around rumors and discussing people instead of focusing on their own issues. Everyone gets caught up in it sometimes… You see, if you listen to gossip, what tends to happen, is you end up either gossiping, or you might have negative feelings about the person who is being gossiped about. While it might be fun to find out about someone’s personal or professional fuck-ups, over time, it gets tiring. And remember, people around you who are eagerly talking about others, are probably going to talk about YOU as well, when you’re not around!

⑧八卦的人。有些人从别人的不幸中得到快乐。他们喜欢散播谣言和讨论别人，而不是专注于自己的问题。几乎每个人都会被卷入其中。如果你经常听流言蜚语，会发生什么事？最终你要么也开始传播流言蜚语，要么你可能对被八卦的人有负面的感觉。虽然了解某人的八卦信息可能很有趣，但随着时间的推移，这会变得很无趣。记住，当你不在的时候，你周围那些谈论别人的人，可能也会谈论你！

 

Number 9 - Victims

Victims are tough to identify because you initially empathize with their problems. But as time passes, you begin to realize that their “time of need” is all the time. Victims actively push away any personal responsibility by making every speed bump they encounter

into an un-crossable mountain. These people are typically immature and lack the ability to face their own challenges or hardships. If you don’t get away from them as quickly as possible, odds are they’ll load all of their problems and responsibilities on you!

⑨受害者 。受害者很难辨认，因为你最初会同情他们的问题，但是随着时间的推移，你开始意识到他们一直需要别人的关注。受害者每次遇到困难，都会推卸个人责任，把困难描述的无比巨大。 这些人通常不成熟，缺乏面对自身挑战或困难的能力。如果你不尽快摆脱他们，他们很可能会把所有的问题和责任都推到你身上！

 

Number 10 - Manipulators

Using the facade of friendship, manipulators suck time and energy out of your life. Since they treat you like a friend, they can be tricky to deal with. They know what you like, what makes you happy, and what makes you laugh. The difference is, that they use this information as part of a hidden motive. They’ll do anything to win you over, just so they can control you. Manipulators always want something from you, and if you look back on your relationships with them, it’s all take, take, and take - with little or no giving.

⑩控制狂。利用友谊的外表，操纵者从你的生活中吸取时间和精力。因为他们把你当作朋友对待，所以很难对付。他们知道你喜欢什么，什么让你快乐，什么让你笑。区别在于，他们这样做是有他们隐藏的动机。为了赢得你，他们会做任何事，但其实只是为了控制你。操纵者总是想从你身上得到一些东西，如果你回头看你和他们的关系，他们一直在索取，索取，索取 ——很少或根本没有给予过。

 

Of course, it can be challenging to completely avoid all of these types of people. Heck, I’m sure we’re all guilty of engaging in some of these negative behaviors ourselves, every now and then. Should you ever catch yourself acting like one of these people, stop yourself immediately and change your attitude. It’s also important to keep in mind that not everyone is going to like you or treat you with respect. So stop paying attention to people who don’t deserve it, and focus on those who care about you.
