How do you convince a person that constant complaining only makes things worse? | |

It is more powerful, more convincing, than you are. It wants him to be punished. Pray for him, bless him, make him laugh. That's probably the most you can do, IMO. *** Good deeds bring rewards, bad actions bring troubles. That is a law of the universe. *** |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 75758325 United States05/21/2018 05:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Someone dear to me is a chronic complainer on a decade-long streak of bad luck. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 17636780 I have grown convinced he sets himself up for failure because he prefers having something to complain about than he does about succeeding in anything. Is there any truth to this, or is it new age, "The Secret" drivel? At the very least, he doesn't realize how tiring he is to listen to. It seems to be getting to where all I can do is avoid him, but I genuinely want to help him be happy. He's trapped in his misery for so long now. I sometimes wonder if he's addicted to it. ask him if he notices that on bad days he gets a lot of red lights on good days gets more green lights than usual no matter how he answers, plant the 'seed' of the idea that his outlook just so happens to preceed events in his life. i.e. that he can't deny days that he feels better, better things tend to happen to him and vis versa |
