So I've studied negativity in psychology. I know that it directly affects our health, liklihood to succeed, and find long-term relationships. Here's some sources and facts about negativity, and negative people.
Your Health
Negativity will damage your health just the same as any physical illness. It can affect your immune system and leave you vulnerable to sickness and less able to cope.

Relationships
Negativity consumes us, and after a while begins to get in the way, stopping us from showing appreciation or gratitude to the people around us.
Constant negativity in life, can sometimes lead us to believe that our opinions are actual fact. It can destory relationships.
Negative people become so used to negativity that they don't even realise that it's running and controlling their lives. Judgements come to them, and they dont see it as a problem, they've adapted to the negativity like a person would to a smell.

Career
Negative people bring morale down in the work place. They are almost never put in a leadership position as their negativity becomes a problem for the future of that certain company.

So just a lesson to a few people on this board. Negativity is dull, it's depressing and you're gonna fail in life if you be over-negative. Negativity is a part of life, but constantly having a negative opinion, thought, feeling about things will affect your health, relationships around you, and your career. Negative people fail in life. It's a fact.
- They will more than likely have more chances of becoming ill.
- Will probably die younger.
- Have more of a chance of ending up alone. (No spouse, or friends)
- Will have no career prospects due to their negativity getting in the way of company morale.
Just chill in life, enjoy the simple things that are given to you, and dont always find a problem with stuff. If you just take a minute to think, you will realise that there isn't a problem, and life is good. Unless you're negative, then horrible things will happen to you
Anyway, as Admin of the site, I'd thought I'd give you all a little lecture on negativity! Maybe I'll contrast my argument with the affects positivity has on life. But that can be another day!
Thanks,
