We can be a nation of entitled whiners. “It’s too cold.” “I am the only one around here who does anything.” “Blah, blah, blah” or should I say “whine, whine, whine.”
Hunger, tiredness, boredom and feeling unwell are factors that can precipitate whining sessions at work, but some colleagues have learned from a very early age that whining gets them the attention that they are seeking. Whining has become second nature and their predominant way of communicating. Their behaviour is draining on relationships and it can poison a workplace.
Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!
Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Whiner’s Day:
If you catch yourself whining:
Try moving from an attitude of entitlement to one of gratitude. It is hard to be whining when focused on the positive and being thankful.
Focus on problem solving. It is okay to vent, but that venting must be followed by problem solving otherwise it is whining for whining’s sake.
If you are going to confront a whiner:
Understand that they are looking for attention, but give them attention for solving the issue, not for whining about the issue.
Finally, minimize the amount of time that you spend with the whiner. They will zap your energy if you aren’t careful.
