"Smiling is the best way to face every problem, to crush every fear, to hide every pain." - Unknown
Arnold Schwarzenegger said, "The last three or four reps is what makes the muscle grow. This area of pain divides the champion from someone else who is not a champion. That's what most people lack, having the guts to go on and just say they'll go through the pain no matter what happens." True strength is smiling when you want to cry, laughing to hide the pain, and going on no matter what.

A Navy Captain is alerted by his First Mate, that there is a Pirate ship heading towards his position. He asks a sailor to get him his red shirt. The captain was perplexed and asked;
"Why do you need a red shirt?"
The Captain without looking replies, "So that when I bleed, you guys don’t notice and aren’t discouraged." They fight off the Pirates eventually. The very next day, the Captain is alerted that 50 Pirate ships are coming towards their ship. He yells, "Get me my brown pants!"
In the midst of life's battles, to encourage other dependents in our boat as we sail to destiny, we must conceal our fears and doubts. People assume that doctors don't get ill, or need help. And that preachers and pastors don't need motivation and encouragement too et cetera. Yes, they do, but many times in spite of their fears, or doubts they have to put on their 'red' shirts, to conceal their bleeding, just so you don't lose hope. This is a quality we all should adopt, just to encourage someone looking up to you.
