Stop complaining and ask for real help instead. Larry Winget says crying in your beer alienates the people who could support you. Show faith in yourself and you'll attract the assistance you need.

You know, I'm often asked, we keep going back to the same theme about knock down 7 times, get up 8. And one of the methods I suppose you need to embrace is this: stop whining. Our good friend Larry Winget says, stop whining and ask for authentic help. Ask for genuine help, for real help. Too many times we get in the mode where we're kind of crying in our beer or whatever the case may be. And when you're in that mindset, I mean, who the heck wants to help you, right? Nobody wants you to be crying on their shoulder all the time. Not that it's not a good thing once in a while, but really, if you reach out and you have— you show that spark of faith, you show that belief that you're going somewhere and you're ready to accomplish something, you're ready to improve, then people around you respond to that. That's where I do believe that the law of attraction works. If you're putting out generally positive energy, then people will respond to you more or less in kind. If you're putting out negativity, they're definitely going to respond to you in kind. So quit whining, quit crying in your beer, surround yourself with good folks that are willing to help you out, and knock down 7 times, get up 8. Ask for real help.
