You can’t see how wonderful the world is while you’re complaining.

It’s very easy these days to find something to complain about.  Winter.  The Economy.  While it seems harmless, it a dangerous habit.  

“Complaining, like all thought patterns, is not mere observation.  Complaining is a creative act.  The more you complain, the more you summon your creative energies to attract something to complain about.  Your complaints may seem fully justified, but realize that whenever you complain, you are placing your order for more of the same.  Complaining is not merely about the past.  Whenever you make a complaint, realize you are setting an intention — a goal — for the future.”  – Steve Pavlina

This morning instead of complaining about the cold, I smiled at the warmth of the sun on my face.  Refuse to complain for one day.  See how much better you feel at the end of the day.
