Have you heard that happiness shared is happiness multiplied? Well guess what? Misery shared is misery divided. That means that your desire to keep your misery to yourself is an act of martyrdom, and reinforces your victim mentality … when you could be lessening your misery simply by sharing it with others frequently and with as much depth and sincerity as you can possibly muster. Avoid complaining, and forget your bitterness. Just honestly share the state of your affairs that is causing you misery. Share and you will receive relief. You may find this to be awkward, and may feel embarrassed the first few times you do it, but understand that we all have challenges. Those around you will often understand what you are going through, and be able to emphasize with you. The more you share, the less you will suffer. The choice is yours. Enjoy your pain and suffering or seek release by taking action.

The true warrior does not waste his precious emotional resources in a personal pity party. No, true warriors seek release, and love to infect those around them with joy. True warriors share their happiness so that it may be multiplied, and share their misery as soon as it arrives, so as to minimize its emotional toll as soon as humanly possible. Don’t wait a moment longer. Share your pain and misery, right now!

You are warriors, and you will be more effective and enjoy more serenity if you share. Share the good, the bad, and the ugly. Don’t hold back. By being authentic, you will strengthen your character and achieve much greater success than would otherwise be possible. So it has been written.
