Life Updates and how I'm Choosing not to Complain

Complaining rarely solves anything. I walk through life with a heart of gratitude. It is an approach that produces more positive results for me. Complaining is destructive and takes my mind off the blessings that surround me. Things get tough sometimes, but I have the tenacity to deal with them. Instead of moaning about them, I rise above the negative energy. Complaining robs me of opportunity. It puts my attention on things that offer little positive input. I prefer to spend time figuring out the way forward. When I see an answer ahead of me, I feel good about myself. Sometimes, things can feel like a burden but whining about it is fruitless. When something is unfulfilling, I take the steps to move away from it. I know that I deserve a life that lights me up and caters to my passions. Dwelling in the midst of things that make me miserable is self-destructive. I am committed to putting myself in situations where I grow instead of shrinking. Today, I choose to alter the things that I can instead of complaining about them. It brings me great peace of mind to put myself in a situation that is fulfilling and rewarding.
