Squawk, Bellyache, Murmur, Oh My!

If you want to be frustrated, feel defeated, and set yourself up to fail, kick start your day off by complaining!
  • Do you have a beef with someone?
  • Who are you bellyaching over?
  • Do you holler, moan, murmur, mutter, and get to the point of a nagging scream inside that you squawk, squeal, whimper, whine....and COMPLAIN?
Seriously, what is all the fuss about?
  • The fuss is you could feel that you are not being heard, validated, or something is not going well and isn't justified. And, there may be truthe to that...BUT, but, when you start to complain, it can also lead to a point where you only see the deficiencies and you can become blind to anything else but the negative. 
Complaining...I am sure that there isn't a person that hasn't done it to some extent. But to express dissatisfaction, pain, or resentment, usually tiresomely can really cause you an adverse affect. Not only will it cause you to worry, have unnecessary stress, but you will become an annoying person to others and after being perceived as a chronic complainer, people may not take you seriously.

Think about it, those that complain are "marked"...they are the ones that people will not want to be around, associated or will make a point to avoid. Like gossip, complaining is something that "will get on you" if you stay around long enough to listen.

So, if you want If you don't want to be frustrated, feel like you can conquer anything, and set yourself up to succeed, kick start your day off by looking at the positive, avoiding whimpering, whining, and declare the good!

Mean words can SCAR...

Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words can scar for a lifetime!
  • Everything you speak, shouldn't be spoken and always think before you speak.
 Your words have power and so do mine!
  • Our words have power to bless and power to curse.
  • Our words have power to build someone up or to break a person down.
 Never should I or anyone tell someone they:
  • are a spoiled brat
  • are a loser
  • are a failure
  • will never amount to anything.
We should never tell a child, a teen, an adult, or our parents:
  • that they are ugly
  • they are worthless
  • are a fool
  • they are stupid
Keep in mind....IN MIND...that just becaus you think it, doesn't mean you should speak it! Allow our words be a blessing and not a curse.

Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words can scar for a lifetime!
