So one of the Queen’s favorite reads this summer was A Complaint Free World by Will Bowen. Now, you’ve probably seen him on Oprah or a string of other morning shows a year or two ago. The Queen often operates on a delay when it comes to such things. Anyway, the premise of the book is this, a challenge to go 21 days without complaining, criticizing, or gossiping. Let me start by saying from an authorial standpoint this is BRILLIANT. No criticizing or complaining makes it difficult for anyone to critique the work without a huge lump of guilt forming in their throat. Well played Mr. Bowen, well played. I digress. The author, a pastor from Kansas City, tried this little experiment out on his congregation. He distributed purple bracelets that the participants would switch from arm to arm anytime they found themselves complaining, criticizing, or gossiping. It takes the average complainer about 4-6 months to complete the 21 day challenging.
