I would like to talk about my habit of complaining children, which is time consuming. In the past, I usually perceived many bad news that affected my present person now. That’s why I developed the habit of complaining even the smallest things such as bad results or the way of the other talking. Well, I think this may cause some negative effects as I gradually lose my relationships with my friends. I used to be close with them much than we even sent secret messages or going outside. But since I developed the detrimental habit of complaining, they began to block my Facebook or even they did not let me that I am annoying. I know this causes negative influence on others but I am confused that how can I change this daily habit then with my time and even with others. I think I will have to do some change to get away from this complaining and save time by doing more positive things.
