Difficult people exist in every area of our lives. We must handle difficult people, or they will handle us. They affect us. If allowed, they will detour our lives. If permitted, they could destroy or significantly cripple our lives. You will encounter Critical people all through life. Some critical people may intend to hurt, damage, and destroy. Some aim to help and will help construct who you become in life. All criticism is not wrong. Welcome criticism, but learn how to handle it. Is it wise criticism? Use it. Is it foolish criticism? Forget it. Ignore it. Overly Needy people will suck life from us. We should always share our blessings with the needy, but there must be boundaries. Needy people come in many forms: Blabber; Drama Queen and King; the Incurably Insecure; the Financial Leech; and the combination of several. We should help, but not be consumed. We will encounter Controlling and Manipulating people all through life. We all can become controlling and manipulative people ourselves and probably have been at some point in time to get what we wanted. Handling these people requires a strategy. Usually, they are people we love or care for. They are close enough to manipulate us. Maybe we live with them. We encounter Hypocritical People nearly every day. They present themselves as one type person but actually are another kind of person. Some hypocrites need confronting, but be careful. They will attack and reveal your faults. Handling some hypocrites requires we sit back and allow the built-in consequences to work. Then, when the built-in consequences roll out, be there for them with gentleness and humility. If you judge them, remember, what they face will come to you. This is how it works. Every person including you and me are difficult people to someone. Handling difficult people, including ourselves, is most imperative and these encounters will happen all through life. Mishandling difficult people can destroy both them and us. Correctly handling difficult people will bring incredible success.
