Most people who know me would say I’m an optimist.
And I consciously make an effort to stay positive. It doesn’t mean I don’t complain.
But I always have this overwhelming belief we can do better than just complaining.
What if we put that energy into changing the thing we’re complaining about? What if we stay focused on the positives?
Still most people complain
Sure, it’s easy to complain. And I’m sure it helps relieve some stress. But complaining alone doesn’t change anything.
Wouldn’t it be better to work toward a solution instead?
There are solutions inside all of us. With a positive focus we can find the answers. And then share them with others.
We each have great things to share.
So let’s focus on the positives. And help others do the same.
After all, what good is complaining alone?

Focus on the postive but be a realist! I think that’s a pretty good starting point if you want success and happiness. Thanks Dave.

Thanks Dave for the reminder.
I’m reading a book that goes along with this – I think you’d like it ->The Energy Bus by Jon Gordon. Check it out.
Thanks bud!
