Don’t Take LIFE For Granted

 

Don’t Condemn Criticize or Complain

This is one of the Human Relation Principles of Dale Carnegie. The simplicity of this statement is complex in itself. It is one of the most difficult to practice especially when things go wrong, you are experiencing a down and out day, and many moments in your life is filled with chaos, suffering and adversities.

Take for instance, when a customer service doesn’t take action and keeps saying sorry for the inconvenience caused and yet doesn’t show any signs of resolving the issue, most of our reaction is to criticize and get angry. There are many such similar events in our life when our patience is tested and we either complain or criticize.

If you observe, we criticize, condemn or complain not only about others but also ourselves.

How many times have you chided yourself ?

It is good to vent out, to seek improvement but we need to be thankful in life.

Three years back, after finishing my boot camp, whilst getting down some stairs on my way home, I fell down and fractured my ankle. I realized, how much I missed walking normally, how much I used and needed my ankle. I have had many injuries and accidents and each of these have taught me the importance of that part of the body that I have injured. Aren’t many aspects of our life, our relationships and the moments in our life similar? Do you take time to appreciate something when you have it or do you realize the importance of something or someone after you don’t have it?

Life’s path is uncertain and yes we make choices and take chances but no matter how much we plan, not everything goes as per our plans. One way to reduce complaining is not to take life and the little things in life for granted.
