  • 21 days. Which is why I am attempting to make it 21 consecutive days of not switching my bracelet from one wrist to the other if I catch myself complaining. I'm taking the A Complaint Free World 21 day challenge. See www. a complaint free world.org for details. So far, I have not been successful making it one day, but I'll keep at it. Will Bowen (the author of the book) says it takes most folks between 4 and 8 months to achieve the goal of 21 complaint free days. I'm going to do it!!!
