People (including myself) tend to complain when things don't change for them. When something is bad, or they're tired of a certain thing continuing to happen to them, they can't understand why it just keeps happening. One thing I have to remind myself daily is that if I keep trying to do the same things over and over again, you will keep getting the same results. For example, say I have been trying to lose weight. I complain about hating the way my body looks, but continue my same daily routines.
The only way to see a change is to make one. What have you been putting off changing in your life?
such a good (and true!) quote. i have a tendency to complain about my job, yet rarely take time to look into new ones. time to change that :] ps, loving your blog!
ReplyDeleteSo true! And a great reminder!
ReplyDeleteJust discovered your blog, and,I must say, it's a winner :] Makes me smile (P.S. LOVE finding another Potterhead! XD! And my boy and I were long-distance for three years--don't see too many of our type ;]). Best wishes and have a great week!
ReplyDeleteAwesome reminder :) xx
ReplyDeleteSneak peek into my life
i love that photo!
ReplyDeleteand i have trouble with doing the same things over and over too - i was letting my work troubles get to me way too much at home until i took a step back and realized that i was letting something trivial that won't matter in a few years get to me way too much! excellent advice.
