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.

The Complaint Free Journey Continues....

It's been a while since we've visited, hasn't it? And I know what you want to know: Am I still complaint-free?

In a word, NO. But it's similar to my weight loss conundrum. When I fall off the wagon, at least I know what to do now. And I fall off that wagon into a cesspool of complaining all the time, whether it's the small, irritating details of life conspiring to defeat me, or the major disappointments and concerns that face all of us as our admission tickets to even being here. I punch the ticket and gripe, but I hear myself do it as a result of my 125-day journey during 2010 to accomplish 21 consecutive days of NO COMPLAINING. And I quickly erect a bulkhead to my grousing before it goes on too long.

My goal during 2011 is to put this journey into book form and get it published. No small task there, right? Not an undertaking for the fainthearted, that's for sure, but I'm ready to wrestle it to the ground until someone out there yells, "OK! Send it to us already!"

Wonder if I'll complain along the way.
