To Complain or To Not Complain. That is the question. . .

  And NO is the answer. 
  Necessity number three = A positive attitude.  Almost anything is possible if one has a positive outlook.  With a pessimistic attitude, the life of that one person can be filled with stress, tears, and anger; the negativity of the pessimist will also drive others away.  All-in-all, a pessimistic attitude is not attractive- on anyone.
   When I look around and observe other people around me, I find many people not happy with their lives, or the things that surround their lives; for every other sentence is almost always a complaint. Sure, I complain myself too, don't call me a hypocrite; but after a while, complaining can really turn others off, and sometimes it can get just downright annoying.
   So why do people complain in the first place?
   I mean, common! Look at this earth we were given.  There is only one planet in the solar system fit for man, and somehow the first creation ended upon it. This world is a design; then, why do we complain about what goes on?
      Truth is, humans are selfish, and complaining is just one of the selfish traits we posses.  Think about it: when someone complains, "It's too hot in here," or "This test is too hard," or "Why can't you do it yourself," . . . when these complaints are said, the person saying them only had themselves in mind.
   How can we fix this problem? First, fixing a problem has to start from inside yourself.  In the end, only you can fix yourself. 
   Second, we must live a more positive attitude and outlook on things, and not always stare at the negative side of life.  Once we acquire the trait of optimism, many things will become easier, and relieve the need to complain.
   Complaining isn't always a bad thing, but too much of it becomes a bad habit, and many people in this modern world complain like it is their first language.  It can be a bothersome to others, and many-a-time it can discourage others.
   
   So stop complaining, put a smile and, and start living a positive life.  After all, this life is short, and you might as well live it wisely instead of foolishly.

“A pessimist is somebody who complains about the noise when opportunity knocks.” – Oscar Wilde (1854-1900, author of The Picture of Dorian Gray)

 

If you have time to whine and complain about something then you have the time to do something about it.  ~Anthony J. D'Angelo, The College Blue Book

Instead of complaining that the rosebush is full of thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.  ~Proverb
