00:02:07.808 --> 00:02:13.851
So few years ago i was part of the leadership team and a corporation and i had,

00:02:14.073 --> 00:02:23.078
oh adults and people that reported directly to me and then each of those words directors that had a dozen or so people reporting to them.

00:02:23.625 --> 00:02:32.837
M within the company i was in a position where oftentimes people would come with problems and one of the things that i discovered,

00:02:33.167 --> 00:02:44.756
after a few years if there's a real difference between people that came in and and we're whining and people that came in and just needed to vent,

00:02:45.032 --> 00:02:56.171
you are the truth is for some of us with our personality and other things we need to sit down with other people and unload our problems we need that moment.

00:02:56.897 --> 00:03:07.973
Just talk about it out loud with somebody not necessarily to have them provide a solution not necessarily to have them give me advice but just to have them

00:03:07.916 --> 00:03:08.954
listen,

00:03:09.203 --> 00:03:19.919
stop just the male female thing i think sometimes there are some differences in how they handle things like this but i've seen both men and women,

00:03:20.015 --> 00:03:32.918
over the years to come and and need that time to just sit down and sometimes people process information by talking through that information and submit talking out loud with someone else they process the emotions,

00:03:33.248 --> 00:03:47.448
a process that the process the information and oftentimes at the end of the day say thank you so much for listening i got the answer they walk out of the room even though you said almost nothing the entire conversation.

00:03:49.083 --> 00:03:59.529
There's also folks that come and do something different you got the action seems to be the same i mean they do start talking about the problem.

00:04:01.254 --> 00:04:10.133
Fairly quickly becomes clearer the third not actually venting they're not venting instead they're whining.

00:04:10.716 --> 00:04:19.100
So i actually use to tell folks your allowed to vent you're not allowed to wine and then i had to find it for them.

00:04:19.592 --> 00:04:33.395
So curious my definition maybe you have one as well if you do i'd love for you to share it with me because i've heard a lot of different definitions of the difference between whining and venting and i'm always curious about how different people c,

00:04:33.617 --> 00:04:35.088
for me.

00:04:35.652 --> 00:04:46.530
The q the information that helps me see that was sent when u set down and you talk about the problem you talk about the emotional you talked about what was going on,

00:04:46.842 --> 00:04:51.247
one time and then you moved on,

00:04:51.613 --> 00:05:01.617
begin to work and brainstorm and look for a solution you ask for advice you propose this solution yourself up and tried something,

00:05:01.813 --> 00:05:10.899
where was something that was completely out of your control you left it to the side u you put it down and walked away from that metaphorical speaking.

00:05:11.463 --> 00:05:21.512
Wind and on the other hand was repeating the problem you are going back over and over again you begin to dwell on the emotion,

00:05:21.852 --> 00:05:28.012
you begin to circle back and talk about it again after you finish describing at once.

00:05:28.684 --> 00:05:38.878
What others trying to move you forward in touch beginning to think about a solution you refuse to go there and circle back to the beginning and begin talking through the problem again.

00:05:39.271 --> 00:05:47.529
You begin to make everything about the problem instead of being able to move past it and look forward.

00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:55.388
Whining begins that circular spiral that often traps,

00:05:55.475 --> 00:06:06.695
can i see more whining about things that you have no control over but ive also seen people wine about things that they have complete control of control over,

00:06:06.863 --> 00:06:09.891
because i get stuck in that cycle.

00:06:10.653 --> 00:06:22.422
Let's see that's the problem why is a huge waste of your time yo it's like sitting in a rocking chair rocking back and forth hoping that you'll be out across the room.

00:06:23.193 --> 00:06:30.452
Yeah you might be able to get them eventually but it's actually gonna be really slow not very official didn't make a lot of marks on the floor.

00:06:30.845 --> 00:06:40.975
It's not the way to do it whining just waste time and waste of motion energy and trapped in a cycle,

00:06:41.324 --> 00:06:47.367
you remember we talked before about the three pieces permanent pervasive and personal,

00:06:47.508 --> 00:06:59.655
why nintendo stock lead you down the path of making the stains whatever your problem is into one of those three piece perhaps all three and it just waste time and emotional energy.

00:07:00.066 --> 00:07:02.572
Whining leads to worry,

00:07:02.920 --> 00:07:13.006
remember where we talked about before where is the least of fish thing on the planet because at the end of the day worry does nothing.

00:07:14.380 --> 00:07:18.308
Hey burns energy burn some motion it's traps you,

00:07:18.674 --> 00:07:27.130
like quicksand but it doesn't actually do anything this begins to lead this stress.

00:07:27.829 --> 00:07:38.527
Begin silly to the feeling that trapped hopeless it creates a victim mindset by definition whitening gets you stop.

00:07:39.352 --> 00:07:42.560
Venting sometimes can help get you i'm stuck,

00:07:42.629 --> 00:07:55.271
whining leads to these bad things not to success and get it i want to be clear because a lot of people here that's nice that you're saying i should never talk about my problems that's not what i'm saying.

00:07:55.808 --> 00:08:08.432
Would you should never why about your problems instead it's fine to seek advice it's fine to seek counsel is find the work with a counselor or a pastor friend,

00:08:08.601 --> 00:08:13.204
it's even ok to vent and just unload things occasionally,

00:08:13.570 --> 00:08:24.015
i do suggest if you're renting to someone you don't want their input you don't want their advice you don't wanna solution proposed that you like to know what front that you just want them to listen.

00:08:24.958 --> 00:08:34.170
Listen to yourself to think about what you're saying and make sure you don't begin to cycle back and repeat the exact same things that you said before.

00:08:34.563 --> 00:08:41.138
Because you no longer feel thing and your whining and again that's the trap.

00:08:42.386 --> 00:08:51.652
So be careful and i understand the difference between venting and whining and if you find yourself wyoming just stop your whining.

00:08:52.802 --> 00:08:53.894
