THIS DAY IN YOUR LIFE…. POINT #1: There is a distinct difference between venting and complaining? If you are complaining just so you can get sympathy, then it is a negative experience. If you are venting to find a better way to deal with a situation, then it’s a great thing. POINT #2: It is all about what your intention is. When you want to find a better way to handle someone, then venting is a great way to assess the situation. If you’re telling the same story over and over again then you are merely bitching and whinging. POINT #3: The great majority of people talk about situations just to be confirmed in their opinion. Many people just want to be confirmed as the victim of the situation. If you’re serious about taking control of your life you will vent not whinge. QUESTION: Do you vent or do you complain in your life? How often do you just bitch so you have something interesting to talk about? ACTION: Only ever discus a negative situation if you are wanting a solution. If you just want to bitch then ask yourself why, is it because you don’t have anything more interesting to discuss? If so that’s a sad indictment on you and your life. The post EP 110 – Are you venting or whinging? appeared first on The Strong Life Project.
