Keep your bitchometer low

Keeping your bitchometer low is about limiting the amount you complain about in life. Its so easy to 'bitch' about anything. The service was slow, the people drive like maniacs, the food was cold, the people were boring, the company doesn't pay enough, the travel is a bitch.

If you find yourself bitching about life too much take a look at your 'bitchometer'. How many times do you bitch per day? What is your hourly bitching rate? Write down all the things that you have to bitch about. If you really can't see anyway out of it then change your job, your city, your house or your friends.

The fact is that chances are you can change one or all of the above but in the long term it isn't going to change the rate of bitching. Some people will always find something to bitch about. This isn't such a bad thing but if you really hate your job and you are starting to bitch about it than either change it or find the things that you do like about it and focus your energies on this. Try to keep your bitchometer as low as possible. You can also do this by hanging out with people with a low bitchometer. The people with high bitchometers typically don't like the low bitchometer people so be aware that they will influence the rate of your own bitchometer.
