A Complaint Free World

This journey was inspired by Will Bowen's book, A Complaint Free World. Bowen challenges us to be complaint-free for 21 consecutive days. Join me on this road to a more positive life.

Day Six

Day Six: Real Time
Day Two: 21 Day Complaint Free Journey


I made it through Day Two unscathed! Everyone else did, too.

The distinction between a statement with negative facts and complaining is becoming clearer to me. My daughter is flying to Costa Rica in a few days and we were discussing her flight from Orlando to San Jose. I commented that I don't like to fly any more for several reasons.

"Everything is so small now. The seats are narrow and really close together. My claustrophobia kicks in when I see dozens of seat backs stretching in front of me once I sit down," I said.

And then I stopped talking. The tirade that would have spewed out a few weeks ago died before it was launched.

I also stopped back at the library today and checked out "A Complaint Free World" by Will Bowen again...in both book form and on CD. Reassurance is a wonderful thing.

On to Day Three!
