Why are some of us successful in life, self-confident, and even, despite the setbacks, continue to hold their heads high? And others, even if they have everything that life can please, go along it with their head lowered, or, on the contrary, no matter how they try to look confident, they do not get anything done.
The whole secret is that the first are strong people who have their own unshakable life principles, habits and beliefs. They are whole personalities whose behavior will not change even in a critical situation. They treat themselves differently than most losers, and, moreover, notice that truly strong people are always simple. Let's take a closer look at what makes a person stronger and how to become a morally strong person.
Victory and defeat
Friedrich Nietzsche believed that what does not kill us makes us stronger. This is true, numerous defeats and failures, losses and losses can show the strengths of a person's character. Any person with a strong character will never stop before defeat, will not lose heart, on the contrary, he will extract from this only benefit for himself: gain experience and continue to move on. Overcoming numerous difficulties, a person tempers his character, and the ultimate goal becomes more and more significant and desirable.
But the victories gained on the way to their cherished aspirations, further strengthen the will, show that the path along which a person is going is really right, and the goals are attainable. To determine what a strong person means, one can by its success in life. This is evidenced not only by external signs of prosperity and security, but also by internal moral assessments of their victories by the man himself. Signs of a strong person that he perfectly remembers and appreciates all his victories and achievements, and uses the acquired experience for subsequent purposes.
Moral qualities
Belief in yourself, dedication, courage and determination always distinguish really strong people, with an iron will. But tell me, have you not noticed that a single-minded person can be unprincipled and unfeeling? Such negative qualities do not at all indicate a true strength of character, moreover, they just open all its negative sides and complexes. Really kind people are strong, because you need to have in yourself a reserve of energy that you can spend not only on yourself and achieving your goals, but for the benefit of others.
The question "what is a strong person?" Can be answered with confidence - it is a kind and generous person, unselfish and generous, attentive and sympathetic. Ability to feel compassion, help one's neighbor, readiness for self-sacrifice, altruism is all that makes a person strong.
