Complaint-free me, Day 6 (take 2): Being nice for a week

Another day in which opportunities abounded (The Rains, co-workers complaining at length to me, a meeting in which further complaints were aired) and yet I felt less tempted to join in as the day progressed. I’m beginning to think being negative requires more energy than staying positive, so in a way it’s easier to push the negative stuff aside, and gets even easier as you keep doing it.

Or I’m just lazy, which I’ve mentioned before.

Also, our meeting was sans donut. Normally this lack would inspire revolt or at least prolonged lamentations. Today I really didn’t care at all.

Which will also have a positive effect on my waistline.
