Man is a weak being, because he is not devoid of emotions - positive and negative. In a state of emotional upsurge or stress, he easily gives in to other people's influence and his own weaknesses.
Instruction manual
one
Control your emotional outbursts. When a person is overly emotional, he cannot be called psychologically stable, he is capable of reckless and inexplicable actions. In a state of nervous excitement, he tends to succumb to the influence of others. It is no coincidence that the “gray cardinals” had a great influence on the royal bloods — they simply waited for the right moment to provide false support and influence the outcome of any business in a way that was beneficial to them. Therefore, try to behave in public as discreetly as possible. If emotions beat over the edge, it is better to quickly retire and cry alone with yourself.
2
Train your willpower. Having complete self-control will not allow you to easily succumb to simple human weaknesses. Mages are well aware of this - among those who communicate with higher powers, any addictions are unacceptable. Why? Because the magician must be the leader of his thoughts and desires, and if he has at least some kind of dependence, then he is not able to answer neither for his actions, nor for human destinies. If you smoke, quit smoking. Get rid of alcoholism, parasite words and eating habits after six. Having defeated yourself, you can always say to yourself "Stop!" and block the manifestation of weakness.
3
Learn to be distracted. For many people, the appearance of a problem, even a small one, temporarily narrows their horizons - a person begins to think only about it, to scroll through all sorts of ways to solve the problems that have arisen. The ability to shift attention to something more pleasant is an invaluable quality. Trying to conquer your weakness? Start an interesting hobby, work overtime, and exercise in your free time - you will not have time and desire to succumb to a dangerous temptation.
