Do you have
a good complainer?
Most people seem
to have a built-in ability to complain that is
almost automatic.
This innate
complainer may seem harmless, but as you grow
spiritually you become aware of
it's destructive power.
Complaining is
simply another way of criticizing.
When you complain
you are imbuing the situation or circumstance
with even more negativity.
Complaining may
seem natural and ordinary, but it
zaps your energy and leads you on
an inner downward spiral.
Complaining is to
hell as prayer is to heaven.
To disarm your
complainer, become aware of
its first negative thought.
Notice that the
complainer is NOT YOU, it is a part of your
MIND that functions independently of
you.
YOU are what is
AWARE of the complainer.
As you become
aware of your complainer's first negative
comment, think of a word or phrase
that will disarm it.
You might say
something like, "Hush! You
don't work for me anymore."
Say something to
your complainer that will
stop it from continuing.
Then in your
mind's eye, visualize a symbol for your
complainer that is moving away from
you.
As you continue
to practice this you will notice a new freedom
and a new lightness entering your
life.
You will notice
that you have the ability to experience joy and
to share this joy with others.
As you let go of
your complainer, you open the door
through which true happiness and peace can
enter.
Don't be zapped
by your internal complainer!
If you let it, it
will run (ruin) your
life!
