Also, sometimes I feel like it's EASIER to talk about complaints than it is to talk about good things. Eric and I will usually have way longer and bigger conversations about what went WRONG with our day instead of what went RIGHT :)<br /><br />Yay gelato though!

I know during a stressful time I just drop the ball and let my mouth go because it makes me feel better. <br /><br />I wish we could start the no complaining rule around my office. I think people complain just to function and that is not healthy, and demoralizingHeatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05770126629760875501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030496918044060645.post-81365291788719131722011-10-20T07:32:54.802-04:002011-10-20T07:32:54.802-04:00I think sometimes I get in a big complaining rut. ...I think sometimes I get in a big complaining rut. Especially the last couple of weeks of the month when we work on a newsletter at work which is just not my favorite thing to do... I need to be more mindful of how much I complain because it is NOT fun to be around someone who complains alot! <br /><br />That is cool that some dads volunteered!

I wasn't really planning on enjoying it, but I did!! I seriously think about the book often as a complaint pops into my head. It was effective! I really suggest it. It's a very quick read.Gina; The Candid RDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13034788087113648183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030496918044060645.post-77961587065638300622011-10-20T01:49:28.484-04:002011-10-20T01:49:28.484-04:00I'm pretty sure there is a book about this... ...I'm pretty sure there is a book about this... which is where those bracelets came from. I first noticed it at our AEA and then checked it out. <br />I like the concept, but it sounds like it made you more stressed! A little venting is okay I think. At least it gets out of your head and isn't toxic to your mood, ya know? As long it's not hurting anyone else anyway!Amber @ A Little Pink in the Cornfieldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06898255649481697297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030496918044060645.post-38176427361664768402011-10-19T21:48:59.258-04:002011-10-19T21:48:59.258-04:00I love the idea of a day without complaints.

So often, we whine about the most minor things without thinking about whether it's really important -- or how many people we're annoying by complaining.Erin (Travel, Eat, Repeat)http://traveleatrepeat.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030496918044060645.post-41713765374277543612011-10-19T20:07:39.179-04:002011-10-19T20:07:39.179-04:00"...at which point I decided since I already ..."...at which point I decided since I already lost it, I might as well make up for all the complaints I had not yet uttered all day." <-- BAHAHA! Love it! I think I might do the same. ;)<br /><br />I do agree complaining has its place but I think it's something we have to watch, too because it can just spiral to all we see is the bad and none of the good. Or even the good is tainted with bad. <br /><br />I like the challenge idea. I may have to try it someday!Stephanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01664500645286563334noreply@blogger.com
