"Any fool can criticize, condemn1, and complain but it takes character and self control to be understanding and forgiving."  -- Dale Carnegie
 
If we really want to be happy, why do we act like such babies?
 
We can claim to be proactive(有前瞻性的) in our life by settings goals and going after what we want. But if we're always whining2 and complaining all the time, are we really living effectively?
 
If you don't believe me, count how many times you complain about something or other in one day. Whether it be being stuck in traffic, being bothered by the weather, not enough mustard3 on your sandwich, or whatever it is, there are endless instances where you can find a reason to complain.
 
But it's not just outside circumstances that we complain about. We complain about about ourselves too. We complain that we don't have enough time, we don't have enough money (this one is huge because it's often "true"), that we're not smart enough, cool enough, or just enough.
 
I know I've experienced plenty of unpleasantness due to complaining about things I can't control. I never really thought about it much until I found this website about "living in a complain free world."
 
Imagine how much happier you would be if you simply stopped complaining? Much of what you complain about is outside of your control anyway. What's the point of brooding4 about something you have no power to change? Not very intelligent, if you ask me.
 
Simply becoming conscious of how much you complain is the first step to stopping. When you recognize that you're complaining, stop and take notice of it. Ask yourself if you would rather complain, or be happy.
 
Are you ready to live a complaint-free, happier life?
