Knowing the weaknesses of others is useful for three reasons. Firstly, so as not to impose on the neighbor a burden that he is not ready to bear. Secondly, to develop a training program and take a person to a new level. Third, to understand the strengths that are the opposite of weaknesses.
Instruction manual
one
Prepare informative, interestingly presented information from different areas of life. These may be articles, examples, comparisons, facts, etc. The presentation of the data does not matter, but it’s good to use a video. Make sure that information is written or presented in a language that is understandable to a person, on his intellectual level.
2
Publish the materials found on the sites or services where the person under investigation happens. It is important that he feel comfortable there and be an active participant. The ideal option is to post data on a forum or similar site where those present can share their opinions.
3
Pay attention to what the person reacts to. Some information will not affect him, but he will want to talk about something.
4
Find and publish contentious content on a topic of interest to the person identified in the third step. Someone with a harsh judgment, different from the generally accepted one, will do. Well, if the discussion unfolds. You yourself can provoke it.
5
Record an emotional reaction. When people start arguing, sometimes they lose control of themselves. Weaknesses of character are revealed, principles and beliefs become visible, which in a usual situation are carefully hidden from others. Using simple observation, you can learn a lot about a person.
6
Use another way to detect weaknesses - the principle "a friend is in trouble." Simulate a situation where other people are next to the subject in a weak, defenseless state, in need. The reaction will show whether the person wants to assert himself, step back or help.
7
Come up with tests of poverty and wealth, the ability to take someone else's, etc.
note
In the considered methods there is a subtle moral side or line that should not be crossed. Otherwise, give way to your internal weaknesses, which can be embarrassing. Therefore, think like a researcher, not a manipulator.
