3. Stop spending one-on-one time with toxic people
You should always keep in mind that it’s extremely dangerous to spend one-on-one time with toxic people, because they will have an opportunity to saturate you with their problems and choric negativity. Try to have some backup while communicating with the toxic person. Other people will draw this person’s attention away from you and it can help you focus on something positive and funny. Surround yourself with positive people as often as possible.

If you are talking to a toxic person then you’d better take an initiative to lead the conversation. Try to avoid topics which can make the conversation tensed and unpleasant. Try to talk about positive things to lighten the mood of the whole company. It may take you some time to develop the skill to lead a pleasant conversation under the emotional pressure of toxic people. But, you’ll be able to handle the situation and stay positive.
