In September, Dr. Maya Angelou received the 6 millionth ‘Complaint Free Bracelet,’ which means that the movement, A Complaint Free World, is one-tenth of the way to its goal of 60 million.
The idea behind the Complaint Free World is to shift the world’s consciousness from negative to positive by involving one percent of the world in the project.
There are a number of items for sale on the site including the signature purple wristband for non-complainers in training and free a downloadable Complaint Free widget that lives on your computer’s desktop to track you number of Complaint-Free days.
