Rather than whining because we don't have certain things in our lives or because we think something is wrong, we should take positive action. Here are four steps for turning WHINING into THANKSGIVING.......
GIVE SOMETHING AWAY
When you give, you create both a physical and mental space for something new and better to come into your life..
NARROW YOUR GOALS
Don't expect everything good to come into your life all at once. When you focus your expectations toward specific, attainable goals, you are more apt to direct your time and energy toward reaching them...
change your vocabulary from
"I NEED" to "I WANT".
Most of the things we think we need are actually things we want. When you recieve them, you will be thankful for even small luxuries, rather than seeing them as necessities you can't live without...
CHOOSE TO BE THANKFUL FOR WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE
THANKSGIVING IS A CHOICE.
EVERYONE OF US HAS MORE THINGS TO BE THANKFUL FOR THAN WE COULD EVEN BEGIN TO RECOUNT IN A SINGLE DAY...
Each time you catch yourself whining, apply one or more of these steps to the situation. As you put them into practice, you will find yourself whining less and THANKING GOD more.
LIVING A LIFE OF
GRATITUDE AND THANKSGIVING
TO GOD
IS THE BEST ANTIDOTE FOR STRESS......
Do ALL THINGS without complaining and disputing.. Philippians 2:14
