To Complain or Not Complain

One of my New Year's Resolutions was to start a blog, which I did. My other resolution was to stop complaining. When I complain, I don't feel good about myself. To me, complaining is taking a negative position on a subject that I have no intention of trying to resolve. Complaining is when it is easier to yak, yak, yak than to act, act act. It is different than making an objective observation and then creating a plan for improvement. Breaking the habit of complaining may be harder than losing weight or quitting smoking.
If I can be good for two more days, I will have made one whole month without complaining. Is complaining about not complaining, complaining? If I want to make it to month number two, I had better end this post now! I'll let you know how this works out.
