Arnold Schwarzenegger's Rule on Complaining

This is a well-known quote from Schwarzenegger’s book Be Useful: Seven Rules for Life. Even so, it’s worth remembering it from time to time:

I have a rule: no complaining about a situation unless you’re prepared to do something to make it better. If you see a problem and you don’t come to the table with a potential solution, I don’t want to hear your whining about how bad it is.

It couldn’t be that bad if it hasn’t motivated you to try to fix it.
