Simplified Meaning:

Making changes in life is tough for everyone, but crying or getting upset is much easier. Imagine you're trying to eat healthier, but it's hard to stop eating your favorite junk food. It feels easier to get frustrated and cry about it rather than giving up those tasty snacks and sticking to a new diet. This quote highlights how, when faced with challenges, humans often find it simpler to express their emotions than to take steps to fix the problem. For example, in history, many people cried and felt helpless when the economy was bad, but only a few took actions like learning new skills or starting small businesses to improve their lives. To apply this wisdom, next time you're upset or facing a problem, try to focus on small, positive changes you can make instead of just feeling sad. This way, you can gradually improve your situation, even if it's tough at first.
