with toxic people once upon a time there lived a man in a town who worked in a company with a very toxic atmosphere the employees in that company were very mean they often try to sabotage each other's work and spread rumors behind their backs they complained and gossiped about each other all the time due to this there was a lot of unfair politics in his office the man was fed up with this kind of environment and wanted to change his job but he was not sure what to do near his office there was a Buddhist monastery the man often used to visit it one day he learned that he verifies buddhismog was staying in the monastery for few days so he went to the monastery to meet the Monk and discuss his problem the mom greeted him and asked him the reason to come the man told him his sad story and said sir I am very unhappy with my job there are very toxic people in my office they talk as if they are mocking me they keep backstabbing me and others pulling each other down and progressing is the culture in our office people keep talking negatively about others behind their backs most of their time is banned gossiping about others I don't know how to deal with such toxic people I am thinking of quitting my job and joining somewhere else the monk listened to him patiently and then thought for a moment then he picked up a glass of water filled it to the brim and said I can solve your problem but for that you will have to do a task then he gave him the glass of water which was filled to the brim and said take this glass of water walk from here to your office walk around your office three times and then bring this glass of water back to me but remember don't spill even a single drop of water from this class during this entire task after that I will help you solve your problem the man took the glass of water from the Monk and began walking to his office he was extremely careful not to let any water spill from the glass then after completing three rounds of his office he walked back to the monastery with the glass of water still full he gave it back to the Monk and said sir I have done your task now please solve my problem the monk smiled and said my friend you have already solved your problem yourself the man was a bit surprised he asked the monk sir I have not understood your point please explain in detail demo cast tell me when you were walking around office did you notice an employee speaking badly about another employee or about you did you listen to any gossip or did you notice any politics in your office the man said no sir I did not then the monk smiled and said you see when you were holding a glass of water you did not pay attention to anything else but a glass of water you did not let anything distract you or bother you or hurt you you focused only on what was important to you and what you had control over and the same goes with our life when we are focused on our work our priorities we don't have the time to see all the drama around us we don't have the time to notice the mistakes of others or listen to the gossiping politics or negativity the fact is anywhere we go we are going to find the toxic people change of job or a change of situation does not necessarily ensure freedom from such people we should certainly do what we can to positively change things around us but when we know that we have done our best and things still remain more or less the same then we should shift our Focus to glass of water which is our work our priorities our growth and our excellence and then we won't be much affected by the negativity around us and if you still feel that it is Beyond Your Capacity to handle the situation and you need to change then you must also remember that a new job or a new situation will also bring new complexities with them as well therefore forget what is going around you and focus your attention to your work your growth and your priorities if you will do so then you will certainly learn to deal with toxic people and will never be upset by these kinds of negative people around you after listening to the monk the man realized his mistake and thanked namong for his wisdom and advice [Music] if we see in our lives we will find that life is full of all kinds of people including those who spread negativity or are toxic you can find such people in society among your friends at work in your neighborhood and sometimes even in your family everyone at some point has to deal with such people but like in the story The monk advised the man to focus on his work and personal growth rather than paying attention to the toxic people around him we should follow the same advice don't let negative people and environments consume you instead keep your attention on your personal and professional development concentrate on your work your priorities and growing as a person this will help you manage toxic situations and handle negative people with strength and calmness therefore don't let toxic people ruin your happiness or peace of mind but keep your focus on what truly matters to you and what you can control this way we can handle any negativity with Grace and resilience ensuring that their toxicity does not affect our well-being [Music]
