A Survival Guide To Defeating The Suckers and Avoid Becoming A Zombie

I know a real vampire.

I know several, in fact.

Hell yes – real life, bona fide vampires…only these ones suck out your optimism, drain your happiness and siphon off your serenity, instead of your blood.

Which is pretty much the same damn thing really.

And I bet you anything you like you are already friends with at least one vampire yourself.

They will be an acquaintance at the very least…or a family member at worst.

And they are definitely not someone you want to hang around with. Or even have them anywhere close to you.

The merely evil ones will leave you tired, unhappy and insecure.

The really malignant ones will utterly destroy your self-belief, making you believe you are unworthy, incapable and unlovable.

The one thing they all have in common is that they will steal all the good in your heart.

And poison what is left, leaving you as just a husk of what you could be.

 

SO VAMPIRES STOP YOU FROM HAVING A SIX PACK?

What do vampires have to do with fitness and health, you might ask?

Well, obviously, wellbeing is not entirely a physical journey.

It’s not simply about going to the gym, banging out a few exercises and voila – look at new me.

God, if only it were that easy.

The truth is that unless you are aligned properly, emotionally and mentally, you will never be at your best physically either.

It is a three pronged approach that needs to be carefully cultivated, with all areas being given equal attention. Every facet is as important as the other one.

It’s the only way to remove the brakes from your life if you want to free roll down the path of your Happiness, with the Breeze of Smiles caressing your face (damn, am I feeling romantic today).

So today, I would love to share with you some of the weapons we give out in our Vampire Slayer kit – the exact same one we give our Re-Invention clients.

“Re-Invention” is our flagship program and our most successful system to date.

The people who sign up for it are our VIPs – and we make sure that these guys get the best of the best of everything we do.

This is why our Re-Invention VIPs are so successful at reaching their goals and being the best version of themselves they could ever be.

We give them some serious tools to get the job done.

And that’s what I am sharing with you today.

I am going to be giving out some genuine, van Helsing certified pointed wooden stakes here.

So hunker down, and listen up.

The info I am about to present you with is solid gold – and it has the potential to change your life immeasurably for the better.

If you want it to, that is.

Only if you really want it to.

 

WHO MADE WHO?

 

“You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.”

Well, at least according to mega successful entrepreneur Jim Rohn.

And that’s a pretty big statement in my book.

Let’s think about it for a second.

It does make sense that the people closest to me affect me on just about every level there is.

Spiritually. Psychologically. Emotionally.

My constant interaction with them is bound to have an effect on me.

Meaning that the people closest to me actually make me who I am.

This circle of course includes friends, family members, spouses, relatives, and loved ones.

Those people who share their spheres of influence with me on a daily basis.

Their thoughts. Their actions Their beliefs.

Their entire modus operandi.

So, when faced with this premise, the more “mundane” of us (that was my second choice of descriptive term) would probably nod righteously (yes, there is something about those righteous nodders that sticks in my craw).

You see, they would take this as proof that our lives are dictated by others.

Or by Fate. Destiny. Lady Luck. Call it whatever you like.

Just as long as it isn’t their fault, or their responsibility.

Whichever label anyone who thinks this way wants to slap on it, it’s all totally bogus, pathetic, self pitying bullshit of course.

It’s always easier to blame the one armed bandit.

Or the vengeful conniving of the Cosmos as it draws its plan against us.

Yeah, right.

Easier is not always the right way unfortunately.

The truth is – we are STILL entirely in control of whom we let into our lives and how they affect us.

It’s our decision.

We get exactly what we ask for.

Every single fucking time.

All the good things in your life are of your design.

As are all the bad ones.

You let them happen. Your actions put you in exactly the right position for what you are getting.

That gives you only one option when tackling negativity.

If you are in the clutches of some negative force field wielded by someone in your vicinity, it’s best to find out as quickly as you can exactly who is sucking out your will to live.

So you can dump them like yesterday’s breakfast.

Honestly, life is too short to waste even one second around someone who’s destroying your happiness and your potential through their negative behavior.

Just run away from them as fast as your chubby little legs can carry you. Don’t look back. Run, Forrest, run!!!!

 

THE “VAMPIRE SLAYER” LIST

The problem that a lot of us face is that we find it difficult, if not impossible, to remove certain people from our lives.

It may be a close family member, or a relative, or a friend who has been there for a long time.

We just can’t face kicking the little bastards out on their ass.

Yes, even if these lifeless ghouls are draining us to death.

We’d rather die slowly than face the embarrassment of facing up to them.

In order to quell our conscience and silence our heart, we try to justify these people’s presence and effect in our lives, by coming up with excuses that makes us doubt our own judgment.

Excuses that make us mistrust what we feel. Maybe this, and if that and perhaps the other way.

Hey, you know that the heart never, ever lies, don’t you?

It’s the brain that adds in all the bullshit.

And so we procrastinate, and flounder and all the while, we are losing everything precious about ourselves.

It’s a slow and painful death.

With that in mind, a lot of us do need help in taking what we consider to be a pretty dramatic step.

So what if we could have a handy dandy Vampire checklist?

You know, just to make sure we are really dumping someone bad for us, and not some poor, misunderstood soul who just happens to act like a vampire.

OK then!

Here are some criteria you will need to hone your Vampire ID skills.

This is how you know who in your life is BAD for you.

This is your very own Vampire Slayer target list.

 

VAMPIRES KEEP BRINGING UP YOUR PAST MISTAKES

 

A little while ago, I was privy to a pretty heated public argument between an incensed couple.

In between the choice epithets they were slinging at each other – including whose grandmother had fornicated with what particular lowly equine species – the irate gentleman was sweetly reminding his companion about some slight she had committed in his regard…

…when she was a teenager.

Judging by the relative age bracket I could hazard the participants belonged to, this would mean that the implied slight was at least 20 years old (and yes, I am being conservative).

Say what?

He was actually blaming her for some mistake she committed two decades before? When she was a kid?

Well, knock me down and hump me sideways!

Anger is always the great revealer of true character.

You can learn a lot about a person by watching what they do when they lose it.

Ever had an argument with someone and they keep bringing up the mistakes you did in your past as a weapon?

Even if you have moved on and grown emotionally since then?

Well, this is a definite sign that this person not only refuses to accept the fact that you have moved on and learnt from your mistakes, but it also means they are afraid of your progress.

Yes. They fear your evolution.

It threatens them. They need to try and degrade you by making you believe you are still what you used to be.

OK – the past cannot be changed.

That’s fair enough.

But if this is being used as a weapon against you, simply to hurt and drag you down, remember that your future is based on what you decide to do with this person today.

So you can determine your future with one simple act.

If such a person exists in your life, just tell them to turn into a bat and flitter off so you can move on.

Lose them. No equivocation.

And do avoid stepping into the trail of bat droppings they leave behind as they flap off into the darkness they belong to.

 

VAMPIRES FIND TIME FOR YOU AT THEIR LEISURE

 

It’s great to find a reassuring, strong hand to hold when you need help.

There is nothing quite like the feeling of comfort knowing that someone will instantly drop everything they are doing and run to your side when you really need them.

Now that is a seriously unique person.

Conversely, it’s just pretty screwed up when someone will only give you the time of day when it’s convenient for them.

And probably turn it into a gesture of munificence to boot.

Bet you can instantly name such a magnanimous asshole.

“Yeah, thanks for turning up darling, I needed you last week. Here, I got you some doughnuts. Let me throw them up in the air so you can take a flying fuck at them, would you?”

Seriously, why spend time around anyone, who just turns up at their convenience? Or gives you time only when they have nothing better to do?

You should never have to beg for space with someone who loves you. The space is always there.

And those who love you will make sure you know that space is there too.

If you need to ask someone for space, especially ask repeatedly, then they are certified Vampire Slayer target material.
