Hi, everyone, it's Alexandra. Hope you're having a delicious day. So I just got done interviewing Will Bowen for the Entheos Academy, and he has a course called the Complaint Free World. And he also has a book called the Complaint Free World. And I love it. The idea is no complaining, no criticizing, no gossiping, and you get a purple bracelet. And if you do complain or criticize, then you move it from one wrist to the next wrist and start over at day one. And it's a 21 day challenge. So the idea is to get 21 days in a row of no complaining, no criticizing, and no gossiping. And I have made it to 12 days. That has been. That's how long I've made it. And it's amazing how much we complain, we criticize and we gossip and we blame. And it's really empowering too, because I was thinking about this this morning. It's just a habit. For so many of us, it's just become a habit that we complain, we criticize, we gossip. There's a neural pathway in our brain where that's just. We've run that habit, that pattern so many times. So it takes commitment and persistence and diligence and patience to actually create a new neural pathway in our brain, a new habit. So that, you know, it isn't our go to complaining and criticizing and gossiping, that our go to is appreciation, gratitude, love, joy. And that definitely takes practice. And it's amazing. I've been working on this for, I mean, the last decade, but essentially for the last couple years, this has really been my practice of letting go of this. Complaining, criticizing, gossiping, just this negative energy. And it's. It's definitely challenging, but it's so worth it because it just gives us our power back. You know, we don't. We're not giving our way our power. We're actually standing in what we want. Every time that we choose to not complain or gossip or criticize or blame, we actually choose empowerment. We choose to say, this is what I want. There's no need for us to complain about anything. Either we look at it and we say, okay, this is how I want to interpret it, or this is what I want to do to change it. But there's no reason to complain and bring negative energy into it. There's no point. It doesn't feel good. And I think it's really cool to go through this challenge and to really become aware of what we're saying in our day to day life. So highly recommend the book. I read it in like two days and highly recommend this course if you're inspired to take it. A Complaint Free world and really taking a look at what your thoughts are, what your words are that are coming out of your mouth and how many times you complain and you know, judging and just becoming aware and stopping yourself. You know, there'll be an urge to talk about someone or to complain about something and the more that you become aware, the more that you can kind of stop it and create a new habit so that it just becomes the way of your life that you you don't complain, that you don't criticize. You are all about the love and the gratitude and actually doing something to make a difference. So I'm going to get back on the no complaint, train the party and wear my bracelet along with my Entheos bracelet, which is the name of my husband and I's company that has enthusiasm. So having enthusiasm guide my days and no complaining, no criticizing and gossiping, I think that's a pretty good recipe for awesomeness. So love to hear your thoughts. Love to hear if you would like to join in and you know, work on.
