Childhood naivety is one of the most touching qualities. A small child sees everything in "pink color", he sincerely believes that harmony reigns in the world, that only kind people surround him. But it is not for nothing that they say: everything has its time and place. What is natural and touching in childhood hardly befits an adult. Nevertheless, there are (and not so rare!) People who manage to remain naive down to their gray hair. These are, as a rule, people with a fine mental organization, sincere and impressionable.

Step 1
Naive people can be “set up”, taken away from the latter, taking money as if in debt, and persecuting them at work! Real life, alas, is harsh. And the payback for childish naivety is sometimes prohibitively heavy. So what do you do? How can these problems be avoided? There is only one answer - you need to get rid of naivety. This, of course, does not mean that such people should go to the other extreme, becoming painfully suspicious and seeing in everyone they meet as a potential criminal. Everything is good in moderation. But reasonable vigilance and caution has never harmed anyone.
Step 2
Try to remember and convince yourself: an ideal society can only be found in fairy tales. In reality, along with good, worthy people, there are villains and simply not the best representatives of the human race. You probably have not forgotten the sensational story with MMM, for example!
Step 3
You have certainly heard the complaints of some retired grandmothers about shameless firms who persuaded them to buy boxes with a "miracle cure", which turned out to be a cheap food supplement, for big money. You have at least once been told a sad story of how a kind naive person was literally “survived” from the service by colleagues, intriguing and turning the leadership against him. Think: after all, you could have been in the place of these deceived depositors, pensioners, hunted employees! Moreover, you will almost certainly find yourself if you do not stop looking at the world through "rose-colored glasses".
Step 4
Here's another good argument: an immensely naive and gullible person can harm not only himself, but also those closest to him. There were not many cases when a naive mother, without hesitation, having signed some document slipped to her by fraudsters, was deprived of all her property! Worse, she was thrown out into the street with her children! She believed that all people are good, that they would not deceive her - and the retribution turned out to be very cruel. Think about it more often, remember such cases. This will help you get rid of naivety.
