Die Amis haben uns manchmal allerhand voraus, besonders, weil sie so verflixt optimistisch sind. Habe den Blog von Seth Godin abonniert, der tagtäglich seine Marketing-Weisheiten unters interessierte Volk bringt. Der heutige Eintrag verdient Aufmerksamkeit. Deshalb hier für mich und alle anderen: Jammern ist überflüssig!

Seth Godin about whining: “The first is that it doesn’t work. You can whine about the government or your friends or your job or your family, but nothing will happen except that you’ll waste time.

Worse… far worse… is that whining is a reverse placebo. When you get good at whining, you start noticing evidence that makes your whining more true. So you amplify that and immerse yourself in it, thus creating more evidence, more stuff worth complaining about.

If you spent the same time prattling on about how optimistic you are, you’d have to work hard to make that true…”

Keep on Smiling!
