A Complaint Free World Dot Org

My "A Complaint Free World.Org" bracelet arrived today.

Well, bracelets. I had ordered one, at the attempt to be the example, rather than just order one for my wife as well. When two came, I asked her if she'd like to take on the challenge with me. She just grabbed the second bracelet. I told her, "I'd read the suggested rules if I were you."

I had already decided to take the challenge about a month ago during our family road trip down South. I had a good 1000 miles to think about it as the audio book, by the same name, played. Per the letter that came with the bracelet, below are the suggested rules
  1. Begin to wear the bracelet now, on either wrist

  2. Every time you complain, gossip or criticize move the bracelet to the other arm and begin again. Keep moving the bracelet from wrist-to-wrist until you keep it on the same arm 21 consecutive days.

  3. If you hear someone else who is wearing a purple bracelet complain, you may point out their need to switch the bracelet to the other arm; BUT if you're going to do this, you must move your bracelet first because you're complaining about their complaining!

  4. Stay with it. It may take many months but when you reach 21 days you will find that your entire life is happier, more loving, more positive and more abundant

I'll be tracking my progress on my blog under the "A Complaint Free World" tag. Pray for me.
