What you can do now
When you feel the need to complain about the way things are,
remember this. There's something you could be doing right
now to improve the situation.<P>
Before you spend a lot of effort looking for someone to
blame, look for ways to move things forward. Consider what
you can now do to make a positive contribution.<P>
There's little to be gained by pointing out what is wrong
unless you find a way to begin making it right. Instead of
dwelling on the problems, focus on the opportunities they
present.<P>
Experience how much more satisfying it is to put your energy
into moving forward rather than looking backward. Even when
the situation is not at all your fault, the most effective
option is to take responsibility.<P>
What's happened has happened, and no amount of finger
pointing can change that. Quickly direct your attention to
the many positive and valuable things you can do now.<P>
Instead of being grumpy, be grateful for the opportunities
that are now available. Choose to take positive action, and
there's no limit to the real progress you can make.<P>
