Exactly. I think I have checked one or two people who have realised that moaning wont get us anywhere..doing will. Not instantly, but eventually. People seem to be more willing to dismiss the positive potential than jump on the bandwagon of unhappiness.

I was reading the other day about a guy who fought big oil in Norway. He was literally having a nervous breakdown every 6 months because of the pressures of it but he didn't stop and eventually his efforts bore fruit. What got me was that he said to himself when I'm 80 and I looked back and our fishing industry is destroyed can I live with myself if I didn't do anything. It really got me. The difference between people seems to be those who sit down and moan and those who actually do something positive even if it is a small thing. Human psychology. But we want a gradual shift towards more positive action.

I tend to either ignore negative voices these days or gently and kindly nudge them to other possibilities.
