A wise man once faced a group of people who were complaining about the same issues over and over again. One day, instead of listening to the complaints, he told them a joke and everyone cracked up laughing.
Then, the man repeated the joke. A few people smiled.
Finally, the man repeated the joke a third time–but no one reacted.
The man smiled and said, “You won’t laugh at the same joke more than once. So what are you getting from continuing to complain about the same problem?”
The Moral:
1. You’re not going to get anywhere if you keep complaining about the same problem but do nothing to fix it. Don’t waste your time complaining, expecting other people to continue to react to your complaints. Instead, take action to make a change.
2. People whom you think are listening to you have their own life and problems going on. They can listen to you but they will never help you, they might just be enjoying your miseries. So, there is no point in trying to waste your time trying to gauge sympathy from people because 80% don't care about the way you feel and 20% are happy to see you struggling.
