You can waste time talking about problems, or you can try to solve them.

Although, sometimes solving them involves talking about them. Someone might have a useful idea, or know where to go/who to talk to to get the problem solved.

Decades ago, I discovered that if I mentioned finding someone *else* to help solve a problem or get some onerous maintenance job finished, my husband would independently simply solve it or get it done, quietly and without any further discussion.

Males are allergic to asking anyone for a solution. They will do it themselves, thank you very much. It is just like asking for directions. Lost? They will go get a map.
