For me, it ultimately boils down to picking one's battles, and I wish we all did more of this. Love, love, love the concept of whine-free week.

It's a hard thing to do, but ultimately very important. Note about my complaint-free 21-day experiment at <a href="http://nocomplaintsmate.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">No Complaints, Mate</a>, it's definitely harder than you'd think! But even when you fail (maybe a bad choice of words) you are at least conscious about it. It really does let you start to see things in a different way. The experiment is on hiatus now, I've come to the realization that it is not possible to do in my line of work as it's too therapeutic to complain! :) But I do plan on re-starting it once I leave my job.
