"If you don’t like something, change it. If you can’t change it, change your attitude. Whatever else you do, don’t complain." - Maya Angelou

Complaining is like worrying; by itself it is a worthless waste of a precious life: YOURS!

The decision to “change something we don’t like” is a courageous step! It moves us beyond the small talk of complaining. It opens a gate to the larger conversation of possibility and the reality that we are powerful beyond the limits we put on ourselves. ATTITUDE, no matter what is happening, no matter the challenges to our hearts and minds, is ALWAYS within our control. It raises us above the weakness of complaining into the power of choice; it makes our common humanity UNCOMMON!
