Product Description
Book Description
Harness the power of positive thinking
Product Description
21 days is the amount of time it takes to make a repeated action into a habit.
In 21 days, you can change your life completely.
You need two things: a purple bracelet, and this book.
You wouldn't believe how much we complain about things - every day we bitch, vent, moan, shout and generally focus on the negative. But wouldn't it be amazing if we could focus on the positive, happy things in life instead? Will Bowen explains the simple, innovative philosophy of staying 'complaint-free' and demonstrates how, with time and determination, you can achieve a positive attitude that will improve your life permanently.

This is a rather interesting idea expanded into a book; namely, that complaining tends to make us more unhappy and serves no useful purpose and accordingly that we should be happier if we complained less. This central argument then gets mixed up with the Law of Attraction (yes, that old chesnut) and a healthy dollop of re-heated Dale Carnegie. At one stage Bowen tells us that if we predict bad things the Universe will hear us and send them, this is (I think) piffle; the Universe not being into hearing anything. But let's put that aside for a moment, what Bowen has grasped is something that I first learned in the crass school of negotiation from (I think) Gavin Kennedy, namely do not just complain, state an outcome you want. This way the recipient of your wrath at least knows what will calm you. This is what Bowen encompasses in his principle that when we complain we speak about what we don't want, not what we want. So, while doubting some of the persiflage I think there are some solid features to this book; in short, I have no complaints....

Good tool for reducing habitual moaning which in turn leads to a more pleasant life.
Doesn't mean that you suspend your critical thinking, just that you apply it to subjects worthy of your analysis rather than to other people's perceived short-comings.
Seems to have reduced my spouse's habitual moaning too (a little), and he hasn't even read the cover of the book.

I loved this booked and would recommend that everyone read it. I am now trying to live complaint free and it isn't as easy as everyone thinks. The book has lots of tales of people who have achieved the 21 days complaint free and amusing stories of the journey to get there. Have passed it on to my partner and my sister is next in line.
