0% Complaining

I was reading Seth Godin and inside the book Icarus Deception there’s this quote from Stefan Sagmeister:

Complaining is stupid.
Either act or forget.
— Stefan Sagmeister

Got me thinking about the “zero percent complaining“, a campaign from Gary Vaynerchuck (I have a t-shirt with that).

0% complaining

I think about always having a complaint together with an alternative. Or at least with the willing to find alternatives. We don’t need people that “just complain”.

It’s not that we can’t find something bad, but how to change this? When change is not convenient, what’s the point? Resilience and finding ways to suffer in silence?

— Daniel Wildt

P.S.: more about the book Icarus Deception.

P.S.2: I have t-shirt yet.
