“But Dad..” – a child’s whining words
Fifth thing to stop doing in order to be happier is to stop Whining.  We all whine at one time or another when we don’t get what we want.

The whining stems from not liking a result that is to occur.  The best advice I can offer is to accept the result and ask yourself how to make it a little better.  That small nudge can go a long way.

Last year I wanted a single vendor to do a lot of work for me during a major outage.  Well, I whined and whined and still could not get my way.  Once I decided to make it a little better I accepted that my best option was to divide the work amongst several vendors.  THANK God I did not get my way because the original vendor could not do all of the work I needed done and would have left me in a very bad situation. 

Today’s question is:
“Could a small nudge away from the undesired result change it for better?”
