Do not complain about what you permit – Anon
I was thinking about this today for myself and for others who complain about stuff (life, weight, circumstances under their/our control, etc.) , that's something my father used to tell me years ago...I googled that term and found this:
Do not complain about what you permit – Anon
If you have time to complain, then you have time to FIX the thing you’re complaining about. Our problem is that we fuss about what’s going wrong but don’t take ACTION to make things better. A “woe is me” attitude will not help you progress. If you are unhappy with your mate, your job, or the people in your life, put yourself in a better situation. If you don’t, the only one to blame is YOU.
I thought I should post it here, as this may motive someone as it is/does me!
