In Any Undesirable Situation, You Have Only Three Options
And complaining isn’t one of them
With factors outside our control largely controlling the strings of our lives, we unexpectedly find ourselves in undesirable circumstances from time to time.
Be it as minor as a work impeding extended power cut or as major as a crippling road accident, such situations can leave us feeling anywhere between frustrated and utterly miserable.
And the thing we most often resort to is complaining— ”All that tax money and the niggards still don’t fix power cuts”, “Why is the stupid internet so damn slow today?”, “When will this moron stop droning?”, etc.
But complaining achieves nothing and only adds to your frustration.
In any such situation, what you really have in front of you are only three options. And based on the type of situation, you have to choose the right one.
The Most Effortless Choice
The clock’s ticking, your frustration is mounting but your friend’s droning shows no signs of stopping. What do you do?
Grumble from within while forcing an uneasy smile or politely say, “Sorry. Gotta go now. Talk to you later” and walk away?
