Stop complaining


If there is one thing I can say with certainty, then it is that we have no reason whatsoever to complain about anything. I am guilty of this and it concerns me just how much the average person complains in a day.

So how dare I say we do not have any reason to complain? How do I know what situation you are in? Well simple. I do not know, but I have seen quite a bit of harshness dealt to people in life to know that there is always someone that is worse off than you.

You might complain that you hate your job. The man that got retrenched just realised he lost his job. You might be too lazy to wake up and get started for the new day ahead. The man that is terminally ill thanks God he has another day. You might complain about the political situation in your country, but at least you do not have to go to work holding a gun and rocket launcher in your hands.

We can go on and on about the complaints. Just always remind yourself that there are people that are in a way worse situation than what you are. Complimenting is always harder than complaining but it affects people in a very powerful, positive way.
