complaint-free?

Via starandrea, A Complaint-Free World.

I don't actually have any idea how often I complain, nor where the line is between saying things because they are true but possibly so often it's a complaint (even if it's because I'm failing to consciously notice that there is something bothering me, and that's why I keep saying it). So this could be interesting. (so could wearing it when driving or on the computer, what with my wrist things getting in the way)

I'm getting 5, so I can give one to some local people, if wanted.

Did you have any problems with The Secret (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Secret_(2006_film))? This sounds like a new variant on the "law of attraction" theme.

I see huge differences between them. This is about changing your mental interpretation of the world, and learning a new habit (or unlearning an old one). The Secret was *also* about that...sorted...but purported to be (and was hyped into) "think good thoughts/pray, and the world will bend itself to your desire without further input from you".

I'm a believer in making your own luck. I just have trouble with this sort of memento. Maybe that's the problem. It's a kind of tacky-looking bracelet.

Eh, I care less about 'pretty' and more about 'reminder' in this case. *shrug*
