Complaining doesn’t help a situation, so keep it to a minimum

Three weeks ago, we suffered a big loss: Stephen Hawking. Even if you are not a science lover, you have likely heard of the great scientist. He was well-known not only for his scientific achievements, but also for his wit and humor.
Hawking once said, “People won’t have time for you if you are always angry and complaining.”
His quote makes me think about my attitude in life. My attitude varies through situations and it’s not always the same.
I can be a positive person when I’m in the good mood if both internal and external elements allow it.
I tend to look on the bright side of an issue and have reasons not to hate people on a daily basis. But it’s not always the case.
I do complain. A lot, in fact! Especially when I’m stressed out regarding school and work. But who doesn’t?
When I feel bad, I let all my feelings go and pour it all out to my friends. I assume they are always here, ready to listen about my bad days. And sometimes, I have bad days the whole week.
Whenever I recall that kind of terrible week, I feel like a horrible version of myself just kicked out the cheerful one. I complain about my life whenever I can.
So does complaining make me feel better? No. I feel like once I form the habit of complaining, it’s not easy to stop. It actually drags my moods down even more. It changes my attitude about everything negatively. And that’s not the way it should work.
Complaining does not make my problems get better. The negative thought cannot help you solve it any faster. In fact, negative thoughts can actually bring down your brain performance to solve problems.
Moreover, when you hold all negative thoughts, you somehow present an image that you may not like it later. No one likes a person who’s always grumpy, looks down to the ground, or finds people to complain.
But please don’t get me wrong. Holding everything inside you is not good either. Don’t bury your feelings when they are still alive. You have all the rights to pour it all out to your friends.
Just don’t make it a habit because it can actually affect you negatively in the long run. Attitude can be contagious. You don’t want to change the atmosphere of the room right after you walk in, right?
