STOP COMPLAINING!

"Complaining does not work as a strategy. We all have finite time and energy. Any time spend within is unlikely to help us achieve our goals. And it won't make us happier." A dying patient of pancreatic cancer once said.
Last month, I was just this whiny cat, always complaining on something. If my mother would tell me to do chores, I would get irritated and complain why I have to do those jobs. It's just that I hate chores, I never did loved it. However, I did it anyway, it's one of our household RULES.
I complain a lot at our house. But when it comes to school, I USUALLY don't. There was this day when our teacher "lectured" us, that we should stay on class and cut off the extracurricular activities. When the teacher was saying this, there was just one thing on my mind "IT'S NOT FAIR." It run on my head over and over again. I mean, it's always a toss between academics and extracurricular activities. Why can't it just be both? But it's just so hard to balance everything. you see if I just concentrate on one thing, I would lose the other and that would end up badly. everything should always be in state of equilibrium. But how? How am I supposed to figure this one out? Would the answer just fall out of the sky? I figured ofcourse NOT!
After reading a book titled "The Last Lecture." I finally found the answer. If I keep on com plaining about things instead of giving my time to resolved these dilemmas, I wouldn't suceed on anything. So if I give the effort i put into complaining and apply it to actually solving the problem, then things would turn out fine.
