They are out there. Watching and waiting. Plotting on ways to destroy your happiness. Whether they are jealous of how you are happy with your life or miserable with theirs, they can and will find ways to make you come down to their level. Yes, I am a victim of the devils. I have dealt with these people recently for the last couple of months. They sit here and smile in your face, and they will speak to you on a daily basis. They ask how is your day, how is your family; you know. The typical devil. I believe they call these devils-haters. It might be funny, but it's not. They are manipulative, deceitful, and hatred. But yes, they will smile like nothing is going on.
Better be careful and be mindful of these devils. Oh there are different kinds; you just got to know which one you are dealing with. Here is an excerpt from a website about different types of haters:
"Quadrant I – Friend – Here, at the very bottom left corner of the spectrum, you will find your real friends and true supports; your comrades in the fight for getting what you want out of Life. Anyone that you associate with regularly (from a business or social standpoint) should clearly lie in this quadrant. These people have absolutely no desire to harm you on your path to success (factor a) and likewise should never have to demonstrate their skill (factor b).
Quadrant II – Incompetent Hater – Here, at the top left corner, you will find haters at the bottom of intelligence scale. Generally, these are individuals who had nor did not complete their GED, avoid learning new knowledge at all costs (in order to maintain their “coolness”) and love to talk smack to you. Typically they can only compile a few very basic insults, which should have little effect on deterring you since they tend to be so comically primitive. These haters are the easiest to deal with and can actually provide comical relief.
Quadrant III – Mom – Here, at the far bottom right corner, you will find people who are close to you, yet still want to deter you from doing what you’ve set out to do, in the form of “trapping” (explained in How Haters Help). They have no desire to inflict damage upon you or hinder you in your path to success and only want to save you from disappointment. As a result, they will use cunning techniques to stop you from continuing (which are usually disguised as something else, since they really care about and do not want to hurt you).
Quadrant IV – Veteran Hater – Here, at the top right corner, you will find the most damaging haters; ones not to be trifled with. These are the “veteran” haters that have both the desire and the skills required to effectively damage you in your path to success. They have spent a long time ‘hating” on go-getters and know what works and does not. These are the people who are “existentially tormented” (as explained in How Haters Help) by witnessing success and have dedicated their lives to bringing down successful individuals. Out of all the haters, they require the most skill to deal with. These are the types of haters which truly successful people have had to deal with the most."
The devils are everywhere; in your home, at your job, at social events, in the grocery store, wherever a devil can hatch his eggs. Learning how to deal with these devils is the first step to continuing your happiness. Realizing how people can ruin your day by making their misery your misery is definitely a start on how you can remove them from your life.
