Complaint Free for 21 Days?

Wrists

"We can throw stones, complain about them, stumble on them, climb over them, or build with them."

-William Arthur Ward

If Pastor Will Bowen has his way, the world will soon be full of people wearing purple bracelets declaring they are complaint and whine free. What a beautiful vision.  So what's wrong with having a little gratuitous whine fest? Isn't venting actually a good thing?  Doesn't it make us feel better?  Studies say no.  Venting can just keep anger and negative emotions alive.  Makes logical sense given that venting is highly addictive. So here comes Pastor Will Bowen and his brainchild, A Complaint Free World, armed with purple bracelets and a 21 day program (scientists believe it takes that long to form a new habit) to abate worldwide complaining.  Here's how it works:

1.  Order a complaint free purple bracelet and wear it on either wrist (3 free bracelets per household)

2.  When you catch yourself complaining, gossiping or criticizing move the bracelet to the other arm. 

Stay with it! It takes most people months to reach 21 days free of complaints. 

And it doesn't stop there!  There are plans to officially proclaim the day before Thanksgiving "Complaint Free Wednesday" to help us prepare for a day of gratitude.  Wouldn't it be great if we proclaimed this a way of life?  So try it!  Go to the Complaint Free World website, order your bracelet(s), and try to stay complaint free for 21 days. 

Your thoughts create your world.  Here's to creating thoughts of gratitude, abundance and joy.
