Grandma Rosa's Monthly Inspiration
Become Powerful by focusing on solutions, not problems.
It may be a simple concept but you'd be surprised how often most of us don't do it.
Dear New Guest,
We all know the type of person who constantly complains...Yikes! When you see them coming, you try to avoid them... Because of their nonstop, negative energy.
While everyone has moments when its a relief to just talk about your troubles....
There is a better way...
You can become a person who automatically uses your complaints as an opportunity to improve your life.
For one week, try this: Everytime you complain, stop for a moment... And ask yourself, "What can be done about this? What can I do to reduce or eliminate this complaint from my life?" And then come up with an answer.. It can be a good answer or an absurd one, but as long as its legal, any answer is better than just a complaint.....
(And you'll find simply thinking of answers is very empowering..)
After about a week of doing this, you'll now be in the habit of noticing when you complain, and then thinking of a solution. (You're already doing better than most. Because most people don't even realize how often they complain. And how disempowering their complaining is.) ... Now the next step is for you to try to improve the way you answer the questions "What can be done about this? What can I do to reduce or eliminate this complaint from my life?"
3 Things you should do when you hear yourself complain.
First thing you can do is simply relax.... Close your eyes, take a deep breath... And ask God for advice and guidance on your situation.... Be honest, open, spiritual, creative and receptive to God's inspiration and advice ... Listen to your "Little voice" inside you. (That's the voice that tells you when something is right and when its wrong.) You'll be surprised how answers will come to you...
(For more info. on your "Little voice" go to my site and click on Grandma Rosa's Monthly Inspirational Message , then see the September 2006 message... )
2nd - You probably are the kind of person who helps others solve their problems.... So take a step back and ask yourself, "If my friend came to me with this problem, what would I say to him or her?...."
And a 3rd tool is to simply ask other people for advice. It's best is to ask people you respect who are living a good, solid life..... (But I must also say, sometimes even people you don't know can help..... I recently had a complaint and asked a Yahoo group listserve on the internet for answers. I received some very helpful replies.)
3 Things you should not do:
Do not deny there is a problem... Things will probably not get better through denial. As a matter of fact, they'll probably get worse. If you're not ready to deal with a problem, I think it's o.k. to say, "I have this problem but I'm not ready to do the work I need to do to take care of it, until I tackle other problems first"... But please don't completely deny the problem because you fear dealing with it. Deny it and it will surely come back and cause you bigger troubles later... And the denier almost always says "I didn't really realize there was a problem." When actually they should be honestly saying "I didn't want to know, because I didn't want to deal with the consequences of solving it."
Do not have the goal of finding a person who will make your troubles disappear. What I call "The Rescuer". While it is natural to seek out a supportive partner and friends, in the end it should always be up to you to create your life... When you look for a rescuer, instead of building yourself up, you are out looking for someone else to hand over your power to. This will make you need someone to much, and that can lead to a whole new set of problems... (Including denial of problems associated with your "rescuer" because you need them to much to face reality.)
And by all means do not talk to a constant complainer about your troubles... Complainers are people who are trapped in their own problems and doing nothing about them but complaining! (They'll just suck you into their negative energy!) And if you're not careful, you'll start complaining with them.... You may even try to "top" them by pointing out your problems are worse than theirs! ... In the end, you'll both walk away from the conversation without any direction, growth or true benefit. This is exactly what you don't want!
2 Real Life Stories
Alicia from Texas writes I was working for a company writing articles, news stories and public relations press releases. They paid me $9.00 an hour. At the same time, they hired a freelance writer for $100.00 an article... Well that didn't seem fair so I complained. I complained to my boss. I complained to my husband. I complained to my friends. One day I even complained to the person behind me in the grocery check out line... Then I started asking myself "What kind of person do I have to become to get $100 an article? How can I write articles that are valued at $100? After all, someone's doing it now, I should study how they did it." Well, I did... I still work for my company because I like the steady paycheck. But I'm now happy to tell you I do have a freelance business on the side and I have made up to $100 an article. Plus when my boss saw that I was starting a freelance business, he gave me a raise because he was afraid of losing me!
Tom from New York says When I complain I do a few things depending on the problem.... If my complaint is bad traffic for example, I may just make the decision to quit complaining about it. I make a decision to relax in traffic, accept it as a part of my day, and find a constructive way to use my drive time - Like listening to relaxing music, books on tape or just taking the opportunity to say my daily prayer of thanks for all the blessings in my life....
For other types of problems, I know there is a solution to every problem. In finding the solution I may experience pain, but when I do find the solution I now have a new way to solve problems in the future. And I feel more capable of living the life I want to...
And one other thing... If someone always complains around me and doesn't listen to my suggestions, I just tell the complainer "I'm sorry about your problem, but I don't see how I can help you solve it. So, I don't think we need to discuss this problem any further." This may sound tough, but they stop complaining around me and go find someone else to dump their negative energy on.
So remember, from now on when you mention a complaint or problem always ask yourself, "What can be done about this? What can I do to reduce or eliminate this from my life?" And I guarantee you will become more powerful and attract more of what you desire in your life!
Blessings,

Dear Grandma Rosa's & (DreamTeam):
Thank for The Sage Advice, it's come at an opportune time, you see I'm home recovering from hand surgery and was having a few of those very same "why me," and/or "what's the purpose of this" type of thoughts you've spoken of.
I love your web site. Your (products) are GREAT! It cleared out a lot of what I call "the old cob webs" and brought in a fresh perspective. I will be placing an online order real soon.
Sincerely, D. Massachusetts
Hello, I just want to talk about the monthly inspiration letter you send out. It's so funny because I have been going through some really tough things this last week, and it was so bad I really have been thinking of killing myself at one point. I usually haven't been reading a lot of my emails, including Grandma Rosa's, but for some reason tonight I saw her email and something just drew me to open the email. It was the exact words I needed to hear. I mean it was a bit scary, but I felt like she sent this message to me personally. Every word that was written was calling out to me. After reading this email it has uplifted me and I am grateful to have received it. This was a blessing for me tonight and I will never forget it.

Dear Grandma Rose,
Your oils are the best I have ever used. I get lucky everytime I use them. And my daughter used your Indian Blessing oil in her home. She is amazed at how it cleared the bad feeling and brought in good energy... Thank you for everything!

Thanks for the information, this is so true... I was using your products when I was younger when you first got started. I still remember my first order was the Dragon Claws and the oils..... I am clairvoyant, clairaudient, empathic and psychic. I just moved to (Texas) so I will be getting some products from you....I will need a lot of your products to help me start my psychic advisory business which I am ready to set up because spirit has led me to do so. So just keep me in your prayers!!! God Bless!!!.
Please email me your charmed secrets because I feel charmed..
