“People won’t have time for you if you are always angry or complaining.”-

Stephen Hawking, theoretical physicist

It is easier to complain about everything than to take responsibility for everything. Stop complaining about what is not working for you. Stop focusing on the negative things in your life. We all have things to think about. But how we think about them is what make all the difference.

Stop complaining. You can change that. You have the power to do it. According to Gandhi, “Be the change you want to see in the world.” Yes, be the change you want to see in your life. If you don’t make the decision to change, to stop complaining, to start living, you are not going to move forward in your life. If you keep complaining about your life, you health, your work, your boss, where you are, you won’t get to your destination. Because the more you complain, the less you get. The more you complain, the more you will have to complain about.

The more you complain, the less you get. But the less you complain, the more you get. Look, my friend, don’t complain. It is not helping you. It is stealing your happiness away. You can’t be happy and complain at the same time. Be a happy person.

Instead of complaining about everything that is working or not working in your life, why not focus on what is working for you in your life. Whether you want to admit it or not, you have lots of things that are working for you. Write down the things that are working for you and celebrate them every day. The more you celebrate them, the more you will have to celebrate. Don’t be a complainer, be a celebrity.

If you want to stop complaining, you must focus your thoughts on the good things in your life. Don’t complain about anything. No matter what is happening in your life, don’t see yourself as a loser, see yourself as a warrior. You are not a victim, but a victor. You must accept your situation for what it is. Don’t try to change what you can’t change. Don’t complain about what you can’t change. What will change will change. What will not change will not change. So why are you complaining about the unchangeable?

Instead of complaining about your failures, take responsibility for your life, for your failures, for your challenges, and for your greatness. It is your life. You can make it how you want it. If you want to live your life to the fullest, complaining is not the way. Complainers never win. If you want to win, stop complaining. Are you ready to do that?

Every Day Is A New Start. Take Advantage Of It

“Every day is a new beginning. Treat it that way. Stay away from what might have been, and look at what can be.”- Marsha Petrie Sue

You have made lots of mistakes in the past. Who cares? Nobody. You have made mistakes, but mistakes didn’t make you. That is what life is all about. We fear to make mistakes. We fear to get out of certainty. We fear to take a leap of faith. Sometimes we even fear to trust ourselves. There is always hope. Today is your day of hope. Today is the day that you will start to move in the right direction.

You can always start again, again, and again. If you have been in a terrible relationship in the past, today is a new day to start again. If you have failed an exam in the past, today is the day to start preparing again to pass it. If you have doubted yourself in the past, today is a new day.

It is a new beginning. You have today to set the record straight. You have today to do the things that you were created to do- to love, to care about people, to grow, to make a difference, to be happy, to be yourself, to do your best, and to be yourself. Not to imitate anyone. Every day is a gift to live your life, to love again, to get to know yourself, to get to know your children, to know your neighbor, to study, to make a difference, to do something great.

You are here for a reason. You are here to make your days count. You are not here just to exist; you are here to live your life to the fullest. You are not here to live in fear; you are here to live in faith. You are not here to be unhappy; you are here to be happy. You are not here to be a copy; you are here to be an original you. Today gives you a change to forgive yourself of all your sins. Today gives you the chance to forgive those who have hurt you. Today gives you the opportunity to get closer to God.

Don’t waste your day. Don’t let people waste your day for you. Use your day creatively. Use your day to bless yourself. Use your day to find out what you can do to change your life. Use your day to be a blessing to other people. Use your day to be a blessing to your life. Use your day to be a blessing to the world. Use your day to love people. Use your day to dream, to set goals, and to reconnect with your real self. Use your day to focus on your strengths while you are improving your weaknesses.

When you wake up in the morning, say to yourself, “Today is a new beginning. I am going to use it to bless myself. I am going to use it to bless other people. I am going to use it to bless the world. I am going to use it to change my life. I am not going to use it to think negative things. I am not going to use it to blame other people. I am going to use it to take responsibility for my life. I will use my time wisely. I will use my day wisely. I will make my day count. “I will grow through the day.”’
