Surrounded by Energy Vampires: How to Slay the Time, Joy, and Soul Suckers in Yo

<p><b>Vanquish the energy thieves in your life and at work.<br></b><br>Are there people in your life that leave you feeling drained, depleted, and just exhausted? Twenty minutes with these people and you feel as if you've just run a marathon. They demand limitless time, emotional support, attention, or affirmation; you dread interacting with them but don't know how to change the dynamic. <p/>You've just encountered a real-life vampire. Dracula has nothing on these ubiquitous social villains who take--time, energy, attention, emotional capacity-- without reciprocating, and leave you too exhausted to protest. Energy vampires can be people, situations, or even your own mindset, but in <i>Surrounded by Energy Vampires</i>, internationally best-selling author Thomas Erikson identifies the different types of energy vampires and offers practical tools, fun self-assessments, and relatable stories to help you combat them. <p/>Using the same simple, four-color behavior that made <i>Surrounded by Idiots</i> a runaway bestseller, <i>Surrounded by Energy Vampires</i> will help you slay the energy sucking interactions in your life whether they're lurking at the office, amongst your friends, or in your own home.</p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Thomas Erikson<br><b>Publisher:</b> St. Martin's Essentials<br><b>Published:</b> 10/03/2023<br><b>Pages:</b> 368<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.70lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.20h x 5.30w x 1.00d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9781250907561<br><br><b>Revie
