Negatives Turn Positive in the Right Hands
Complaints are blessings in disguise for better relationships
Everyone has complaints, large or small, but handling them makes all the difference when negatives turn into positives and life becomes much more bright.
Embracing a proactive mindset and viewing complaints as valuable feedback helps identify areas for improvement, foster better communication and ultimately drive a good change.
From their varied perspectives, Lillian Lake, Bharat Wakhlu and Cathy Carmody know people have a complaining nature.
“Crankiness is a condition of the mind,” Wakhlu said. “If the mind is in such a state, it is prone to interpret everything as a source of stress and hence likely to trigger complaining.”
Self-care Creates Strong, Healthy Relationships
An author of six books, Wakhlu is a transformational thought leader and futurist, an innovative value creator, leadership and diversity coach and facilitator of wholesome change.
Lake is a journalist and spiritual healer with a passion for life. She educates on human trafficking, is a caregiver advocate and works to protect children from exploitation and abuse.
