I have never had time for negative / deceitful peo

I have never had time for negative / deceitful people, life is short, so I believe you stay positive. When I run into self-centered , egotistical narcissists , I chose to remove them from either my life or my business with great haste. Positive discussions on business and personal matters usually bring success, negative reasoning is the easy way to explain why something isn't working, we can all do that, looking at a situation and seeing what's right and building on that is what brings happiness and success in life. I am sure Cassandra has neither experienced happiness or success, her criticizing is a defense mechanism to hide her inability to build anything of value, personally or professionally. IMHO
