Daily update: no complaining
I think I complain too much. I want to complain less. Or rather, I want to stop letting my circumstances, many of which I cannot change, dictate whether my baseline feeling is good or bad.
So I'm going to try to not complain for the rest of the day. I'm posting this at 11:38am EST; I'll update later tonight and report back on how the day went! My hypothesis is that I'll be a bit more cheerful.
UPDATE:
The day went well. I was a bit more cheerful than usual, and I did stick to the "no complaining" rule pretty well. It was interesting to try to reframe thoughts or comments to not be complaints. I should try this more!
