Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 We all have a spectrum of toxicity that we can look at. At one end of the spectrum are people who are constantly complaining, yet they never value your advice. They are energy vampires. At the other end of the spectrum are people who are abusive, violent, or worse. #2 There are a multitude of reasons why people can be difficult. It could just be that they are simply nasty and enjoy seeing you suffer, or there might be underlying conditions behind their behavior. #3 It is important to not judge people too quickly, as personality types and disorders all have root causes. It is important to determine if the difficult people in your life are making an effort to improve, like you are now. #4 We must start seeing people for who they really are, rather than who we want them to be. We tend to create a set of expectations and beliefs about the people in our lives, and this leads us to know only half of who they really are.
