Developing mental strength and balance is not easy, but it is possible. You need to force yourself every day to move forward, become stronger, conquer fears, remain both a realist and an optimist, and set yourself achievable goals and the necessary limitations. Mentally strong people do not waste time on regrets and do not follow others simply because it is easier.
How to determine whether you are one of the morally stable people? These are the characteristics that distinguish mentally strong individuals. It is worth taking note and developing these qualities in yourself.
You balance your emotions with logic.
Moral strength comes from understanding how emotions influence thinking and not letting them take control of you. A morally strong person, even a very emotional one, is always armed with logic.
Do you prefer to be productive?
Even when the temptation to feel sorry for yourself becomes too strong, you do not wallow in idleness and do not run away from difficult decisions.
You adapt to change easily
Even when change is unwanted and inconvenient, you can survive it, get used to it, or even turn it to your advantage. Moral strength forces all efforts to be directed toward adapting to change rather than resisting it.
You are not afraid to face your fears
You don't strive to overcome your fears because you have nothing to prove to others, but you are not afraid to admit them and face what is holding you back.
You learn from your mistakes
You don't hide them, don't hide them, don't laugh them off, and don't make excuses for yourself in any way. You simply learn your lesson and move forward.
You accept yourself, but don't stop improving
Morally strong people know and accept themselves for who they really are. At the same time, they recognize and support their desire for better.
You are sincerely happy about other people's successes
Moral strength is better demonstrated through cooperation than through competition. You understand this and don’t feel that someone else’s success in any way detracts from your achievements.
Are you confident in your own values?
You live comfortably, easily making decisions based on your priorities and values.
You strive to improve your skills, abilities and talents
Instead of showing off what you are good at, you strive to make yourself even better. You don't need the recognition of others in order to feel better; you know your worth very well.
Are you living for real
Morally strong people are true to themselves and their ideals; their words rarely diverge from their deeds.
You see challenges as opportunities for growth.
You do not allow difficulties to upset you, but are guided by Nietzsche's quote: “What does not kill you makes you stronger.”
You value yourself for who you are, not for your achievements.
Regardless of whether you win or lose, you know your worth and don't beat yourself up over your shortcomings.
Are you ready to wait in the wings
Mentally strong people view their goals as a marathon, not a sprint. This means being ready to endure short-term hardships if the long-awaited hour comes after them.
You get up quickly after falling
You don't view falls and losses as the end of the road, but rather as opportunities to find a better path.
You are an optimistic realist
Morally strong people will find a ray of sunshine peeking out from behind a cloud, but will not ignore the impending storm because of this.
You are responsible for the choices you make
You don't torture yourself with guilt or try to avoid responsibility, you simply accept responsibility for every choice you make and every decision you make.
You know how to thank
You understand the importance of a timely word of gratitude, and for you these are not empty words. Instead of demanding more, you know how to stop and thank fate for what you have.
You focus on what you can control.
Morally strong people don't waste time trying to change things that are beyond their control. They little by little influence what they can change.
You focus on solving the problem
Morally stable people do not waste time considering the problem and looking for those to blame; they are actively involved in solving and preventing it.
Are you ready to learn from the world around you?
You never stop learning from the experiences of others, from the advice of others and from searching for answers to any question that interests you.
You work on your weaknesses rather than hiding them.
Even if it seems easier to disguise your weaknesses, you are not afraid to admit them and strive to get rid of them once and for all.
How does a strong person differ from a weak one? Now we are not talking about physical strength and endurance. With the proper degree of perseverance, almost anyone can cultivate these qualities. Becoming a strong person psychologically is much more difficult. And is it even possible?
Strong man: what is he like?
A strong person is what many people want to be in life. It is believed that such a person will be able to get settled and achieve what he wants. How he does it is not so important, the result is a priority. At the same time, a strong personality is characterized as cruel and rude, unshakable in judgment. But at heart, a strong person can be a fluffy kitten. Not everyone knows him closely, but they judge him by his external manifestations of fortitude.
But what about the psychology of a strong person? It is characterized by the following:
A strong personality may seem difficult to be around, live with, or work with. In fact, such a person is an example for others. Looking at it, you can understand that moving in the direction of your dreams and achieving results is a must. You can learn a lot from a strong person. The main thing is to understand this and be able to see the advantages of other people.
Portrait of a weak man
A weak person is the same as a strong person, but with a minus sign. That is, everything is the other way around for him. Yes and no. There are signs by which a psychologically weak person can be easily identified in his environment. To do this, analyze the behavior of your friends. Or perhaps something from this list is about you?
- A weak person complains more and more often than other people. Life is like a roller coaster, there are ups and downs. But even being at the top, a weak person complains about his existence, finding a reason for this. And instead of trying to get out of a difficult situation and solve problems, he talks about difficulties to others, regardless of their opinions and desire to listen or lack thereof. This turns people away from the weak person and introduces another reason for complaint.
- A weak person does not strive to leave his comfort zone. He is afraid of life changes, even if they promise only the best. Vegetating in routine, he builds a life. He thinks that it is safer this way, he feels protected, even if in fact this is not the case.
- A weak person does not take other people's opinions into account. Yes, you need to live your life the way you want. But being able to find a reasonable grain in the opinions and statements of other people is very important. To a certain extent, it pays to listen to others. This gives impetus to the development and improvement of one’s own personality.
- A weak person gives up without a fight. This is perhaps the most obvious sign of a psychologically weak personality. This is expressed not only in the inability to finish what has been started, but also in the lack of perseverance. A strong person forgets that success does not come to those who have done nothing to achieve the result.
- A weak person is jealous of other people. He does not achieve what he wants himself and those who succeeded. But each person has his own, the circumstances of his achievement are not the same. Instead of biting your nails with envy, you should find your own path.
- A weak person gets angry. Of course, no person can live without manifestations of anger. But what is the object towards which this anger is directed? If this is anger at yourself for your inability to achieve something, it will most likely direct you on the right path to self-improvement. But if this is anger at circumstances, at other people who have succeeded, where will it lead? It is absolutely impossible to never be angry. But unjustified destructive feelings break a person from the inside.
- A weak person tends to dramatize. He talks about how hard it is for him to cope with life’s troubles and characterizes his life in a negative way. They say about such people that they are pessimists, because they do not see the light ahead. But negative mental projections are imposed on life, leave an imprint on a person’s present and future, and there is no escape from this.
You can understand the difference between a strong person and a weak one without resorting to an in-depth analysis of the personality. There is an ordinary, everyday understanding of “strength” and “weakness”. But at the same time, it can vary from person to person, and the category is determined.
How can a weak person become stronger?
There are no hopeless people. Anyone can become stronger if they want. You should get rid of your shortcomings gradually. To do this, follow the advice of psychologists.
Remember that there are no exceptionally strong or weak people. We are all strong in our own way, but sometimes we need support and understanding. Therefore, a strong person is not alone. He helps loved ones and is not afraid to ask for reciprocity if he needs it.
A weak person as a personality quality is unable to control his feelings, mind and false ego; not having his own opinion, inner core, personal responsibility for his life; dependent, indecisive, unsure of himself.
The son came to his father and said: “Father, I’m tired, I have such a hard life, such difficulties and problems, I’m always swimming against the tide, I don’t have any more strength.” What should I do? Instead of answering, the father put 3 identical pots of water on the fire, threw carrots into one, put an egg into another, and poured coffee beans into the third. After a while, he took the carrots and egg out of the water and poured coffee from the 3rd pan into the cup. - What changed? - he asked. “The egg and carrots were boiled, and the coffee beans dissolved in the water,” the son answered.
- No, my son, this is only a superficial look at things. Look - hard carrots, having been in boiling water, have become soft and pliable. The fragile and liquid egg became hard. Outwardly they have not changed, they only changed their structure under the influence of the same unfavorable circumstances - boiling water. Likewise, people who are strong outwardly can fall apart and become weaklings where the fragile and tender ones only harden and become stronger. - What about coffee? - asked the son. - ABOUT! This is the most interesting! The coffee beans completely dissolved in the new hostile environment and changed it - they turned boiling water into a magnificent aromatic drink. There are special people who do not change due to circumstances - they change the circumstances themselves and turn them into something new and beautiful, extracting benefit and knowledge from the situation.
A weak person is a slave to his feelings. When the mind is captured by feelings, a person becomes weak-willed and weak. Feelings by their nature are insatiable and deceptive. They must be controlled by the mind, which itself needs to be controlled by the mind. The mind by its nature constantly strives for pleasure, for the satisfaction of its “I want.” It works in the “like or dislike”, “pleasant or unpleasant” mode. The mind is characterized by variability, lust, confusion and chaos.
The one whose mind rules over reason is weak. The child has no mind. He lives by his mind. A woman’s mind fully develops by the age of 18, and a man’s by the age of 25. Therefore, the child constantly needs control, because he cannot distinguish what is harmful and what is useful. Therefore, he puts all sorts of nasty things into his mouth and goes wherever his racing mind wanders. For a child, only the function of the mind works, usually expressed in changeable desires. “I want” this toy, I want ice cream, I want it, I want it, I want it.
A person turns into a weakling if he is controlled by “I want.” If insatiable feelings and lustful mind colonize the mind, a person becomes weak and dependent. What makes a person weak is the mind under the hood of feelings and mind. What functions does the mind perform? It works in the mode “right - wrong”, “harmful or useful”, you can do it or you absolutely cannot do it. Reason answers the question of what is good and what is bad.
A strong mind keeps feelings and mind in check, a person becomes strong, strong-willed and mature. The muscular mind easily overcomes the feelings and lustful mind, making its owner strong and self-confident. A weak person is the owner of a frail mind, unable to control his feelings and mind.
What makes a person weak is the dominance of the false ego in the consciousness. If the false ego enters into an alliance with the feelings and mind, defeats the mind, chains the soul and conscience, a person becomes not only weak, he turns into a soulless, unscrupulous creature, gradually descending and degrading.
Poet Eduard Asadov writes:
If fate presses -
People differ in their actions:
The strong fight in adversity,
The weak drink in misfortune.
The false ego is completely concerned with its own importance and significance, completely absorbed in questions of its poshness, prestige and coolness. It forces a person to participate in the race “Who is cooler, richer and more bohemian.” A weak person gives up before the false ego, becomes its slave and obediently fulfills all its whims and caprices.
Psychologist Galina Naumenko writes: “In the process of communication, we somehow, imperceptibly for ourselves, agreed to consider a strong person, able to withstand the blows of fate, who has his own opinion and is guided by this opinion in his actions. We see a person with an inner core of values and beliefs experienced in his own life, and not borrowed from other people's books for their artistic beauty. He will never cite external circumstances as the reason for his failure: he was unlucky with his wife, he met bad friends, he was appointed an evil boss. What can I do to make my life match my idea of it? - a strong man asks himself.
A weak person then is a person who lives in reverse. Without an inner core, without actions arising from one’s own opinion, without personal responsibility for one’s life. But with resentment at the injustice of fate in all its forms: the wrong people, the wrong place, the wrong time. A weak person is almost always dependent. Mostly from other people. More or less all people depend on each other. Strong ones too. But other people are not the source of life for a strong person. Meaning - perhaps, the object of application of forces - very often. A weak person needs the approval of himself by other people like a flower in life-giving moisture.”
Psychologist Lara Koziorova emphasizes that a weak person never admits his guilt. He is too weak to carry this load. Such people prefer to justify themselves, to come up with thousands of different and non-existent reasons why they were “forced” to do such and such. It is very difficult for a person with a weak spirit to ask for forgiveness. Even if with some tiny “part of themselves” they understand that they are wrong, they will still stubbornly stand their ground, making the whole neighborhood to blame, but not themselves.
The weak in spirit always assert themselves and do this mainly by suppressing another person. The weak like to rise above someone; the desire for even the slightest bit of power is their driving force. A self-sufficient person does not need such statements. “Empty and cowardly men often show fits of anger and passion before their subordinates and before those who dare not show resistance to them, and imagine that they have thereby shown their courage,” wrote Adam Smith. The weak in spirit have a perverted sense of humor: they cannot laugh at themselves, and are very afraid that someone will laugh at them. The humor itself among the weak has a shade of black, with the addition of a fair amount of vulgarity or arrogant cynicism.
The weak in spirit are greedy, because only a generous person can be open and generous to the world. The strong in spirit know sacrifice, the weak are afraid and deny it.
The weak are at the mercy of fears and phobias, stereotypes and habits, patterns and complexes... They do not analyze their personality in order to get rid of or process all of the above (they do not need this), they are rather engaged in adjusting their philosophy of “life” to their weaknesses , and adapt your immediate environment to your philosophy. The weak do not tolerate refusal (they are harmed by another person’s refusal of something), the weak are vindictive and, given the opportunity, will always find a moment to take revenge on someone they dislike.

Each person is endowed with his own energy. It can be congenital or acquired during life. There is weak energy, and there is strong energy. According to experts in the field of esotericism, a person’s personal development and success in life depend on it. How to determine your energy field?
There are no specific ways to test a person for his energy power. Energy cannot be measured with instruments. But you can feel it. As a rule, an active, purposeful and active person has a large supply of vitality. And the one who constantly complains about a lack of energy is a person with low energy levels.
An energetically strong person is usually always in a good mood. He knows how to control his emotions, knows what he is capable of and boldly goes towards his goal. He is not afraid of difficulties, because he feels within himself the strength that will help in difficult times.
People with strong energy are more successful in life. They are cheerful and positive. Their attitude and good health make it easy to achieve their goals. Energetic people can manipulate others, defend their point of view and win attention to their person.
However, those with high energy potential must be able to control their strength. It is better to direct energy for the benefit of yourself and others. If you have strong energy, then there is a possibility that you can put the evil eye on a person and harm his biofield.
An energetically weak person often gets sick. Even if he has good ideas, he is in no hurry to implement them. People with low energy get tired quickly. They are easily offended or influenced.
Energy levels can be more accurately determined by dreams. What do you dream about most often?
If in a dream you often walk into rivers, forests, or thickets, then this is a sign of an excess of energy. This may also be indicated by music in a dream or a belt that tightly tightens your waist. In this case, everything is fine with energy. True, it happens that excessive energy does not lead to good things. If your forces are directed for good, they will be of real benefit. But if you waste it on trifles, then you will not get anything good from your inner strength.
If you constantly dream of ruins, old houses, abysses, emptiness, hunger, thirst, quarrels, fights, narrow roads and corridors, then you are experiencing a lack of vitality. This is a sign that you urgently need to change your life and restore energy.
Do not rush to despair if you suddenly realize that you are not energetically strong. There is an opinion that human energy is constantly changing. It can be congenital, hereditary (its level depends on many factors, such as place of birth, energy of birth, circumstances of birth, etc.) and acquired.
The acquired energy can change depending on the lifestyle a person leads, what he does, where he lives and with whom he communicates. Based on this, you can easily increase your energy level. There are many ways to do this.
- Firstly, you need to eat well and establish a daily routine.
- Secondly, you need to be alone with yourself and your thoughts more often in order to better understand yourself and your desires.
- Thirdly, you need to give preference to something that brings moral satisfaction.
- Fourthly, you should communicate more with people who set you up for positive emotions.
Knowing your energy potential, you can strengthen it yourself (if it is weak) or direct it in the right direction to achieve your goals. With inner strength, you can achieve anything you want. The main thing is to constantly work on energy, not to let it fail and be able to control it when necessary.

As each of us probably knows, human sensory abilities have a wide range. Some people see very well, others not so much. Some have excellent hearing, while others are deaf. The same applies to energy sensitivity.
All things are made of vibrational energy. Some people are very aware of the energy that surrounds them, and they can easily tell when it is too much or too little. They easily sense “good” and “bad” vibrations.
Not all energy-sensitive people exhibit all of the following characteristics all the time, but if you notice even a few of them, you are likely to be quite sensitive to vibrational energy.
Strong human energy
1. You have deep empathy for other people.
Often a person with strong energy can be seen where someone is offended or upset. Energy-sensitive people are often the first “receivers” of information about someone else’s problem. At the same time, the victim always wants to hold the hand of such a person, hug him and cry to him.
Energy-sensitive people are very sensitive to other people's emotions (and sometimes physical pain), so they easily understand and empathize with those who are suffering.
2. Emotional rollercoaster
Having a keen sense of vibrational energy often means that when a person experiences “high” energies around them, they are on an emotional high and vice versa. Have several options ready in case of an emotional downturn.
3. Addiction
Being sensitive to energy, such a person feels much more than other people. To escape the feeling of low vibrational energy, often such people can use alcohol or some other relaxant to reduce the strength of the negative energy sensations.
These people may also be prone to other types of addictions, such as food, gambling or shopping.
Man and his energy
People with strong energy often understand very well the motives of people’s behavior; in some cases, they immediately catch and feel when someone wants to say something, good or bad, it doesn’t matter.
This is a very useful trait, since no one can use such a person for their own purposes.
5. People with strong energy are often introverts
Not all sensitive people are introverts, but a lot of them are. The process of feeling the emotions and feelings of other people is very mentally exhausting, so energy-sensitive people often need rest and recovery after such “sessions.”
They can often feel exhausted after prolonged social interactions.
6. A person can see signs
People with strong energy are much more likely to understand the signs that the Universe sends them. They are more likely to find meaning in events and circumstances that most other people would consider random.
Human energy
As we can see, strong energy is a double-edged sword. Focusing on vibrational energy allows for a deeper understanding of the Universe, but on the other hand, it can also lead to some increased stimulation and cause a lot of problems if left unattended.
If you believe you have a strong energy and are energetically sensitive, there are a number of things you can do to help you use your gift correctly and not become so drained.
First of all, the first thing that can help you strengthen your vibrational “receivers” or better feel the vibration of the environment is meditation or yoga for mental and physical recovery. It is also a good idea to regularly declutter your home and workspace.
Be mindful of the people you surround yourself with and stay away from toxic individuals, events and circumstances, especially when you feel overwhelmed. It is very important to work on self-acceptance and learn to love yourself and your gifts.
If you came into this world as a person sensitive to the perception of energy, then you automatically have certain responsibilities. However, the constant flow of energy from the environment can overwhelm you and cause you pain.
But if you learn to manage your gift, amazing things will begin to happen. Reading energy from people and being able to empathize with others will be a huge advantage.
Energy-sensitive people have the power to push the world toward positive change, and they also have the ability to become the world's greatest leaders, healers, and teachers.
Now let's look at what types of energy people exist today.
Energy of the human body
1) People are energy mirrors
If energy is directed at such a person, no matter positive or negative, it will always return to the one who directs it. That is, a mirror person reflects energy.
These properties of energy inherent in certain people can and should be used, and with a high degree of efficiency, in order to protect themselves from negative energy, and, first of all, from its targeted flows.
People who are mirrors have a great sense of the people around them, so if they have to reflect negative energy while being near its carrier, they immediately understand who is in front of them and try not to enter into any contact with this person.
True, it is worth adding that the carrier of negative energy himself, on a subconscious level, tries not to encounter such “mirrors”, because receiving back his own negativity will not have the best effect on him, up to the development of various diseases or, at least, ailments.
And vice versa, for a carrier of positive energy, contact with mirror people is always pleasant, because the reflected positivity returns to its owner, charging him with another portion of positive emotions.
As for the mirror man himself, after he quickly realized that in front of him was a carrier of positive energy, in the future he would only be happy to communicate with such a person and will maintain warm relations with him.
2) People are energy leeches
There are a lot of people with such energy, and each of us encounters and communicates with them almost every day. These could be work colleagues, relatives or good friends.
In essence, energy leeches are the same thing as energy vampires. That is, these are people who have problems replenishing their energy reserves, and the easiest way for them to do this is to stick to another person, taking away their energy, and with it their vitality.
Such people are persistent and aggressive, they radiate negativity, and they have their own method of pumping energy out of those around them, which is quite simple. They create a conflict situation, start a quarrel or argument, and sometimes they can even humiliate a person when other methods do not help.
After the incident, their well-being significantly improves, they become more energetic, and they feel a surge of strength because they have drunk enough energy from the person to fuel themselves. A donor person exposed to an energy leech, on the contrary, feels empty, depressed, and sometimes he may even experience physical ailments.
In order for a leech to feel good, there must always be donors around it, and they themselves strive to keep in their field of vision such people whose energy field they can attach to.

3) People are energy walls
A person - an energy wall - is a person with very strong energy. You can often hear about such people that they are impenetrable. All troubles, if any appear on their path in life, fly away from them literally like from a concrete wall.
However, there is also a negative side to interacting with such people. Negative energy directed at them naturally bounces off and does not always return to the person who sent it. If there are other people near the “wall” at the moment, then the negativity can go to them.
4) People are energy sticks
From the very moment you meet them, these people begin to pour out a huge amount of negative energy on their interlocutor. Moreover, without waiting for the question, they immediately lay out all the negativity that they have accumulated.
It stuck, like a leech, and does not take energy directly. Such a person also tries to settle into the living space of those around him and stay there for a long time. Clingy people are people with very bad and low energy, they constantly impose themselves, always want to be nearby, constantly call their “victims”, look for meetings, ask for advice, etc.
But if later some difficulties arise in their life, then they really like to blame those who were nearby for all the negative things that happen. Thus, sticky people do not create conflict situations, like leeches, but receive their portion of other people’s energy with the help of moral support, sympathy and advice.
That is, by imposing themselves on the people around them, as well as forcing them to communicate in indirect ways, the stickies feed on the energy of these people. But it is worth adding that people communicating with them do not suffer as they do from contact with energy vampires.

5) People are energy absorbers
In this capacity, absorbers can be both donors and recipients. These people are very sensitive, their energy-information exchange is always accelerated. They like to get involved in other people's lives, showing a pronounced desire to help and influencing other people's energy.
There are two types of absorbers: the first absorb both positive and negative energy, they like to be offended for no reason, but they quickly forget the grievances; the latter take in a lot of negative energy, while giving out a lot of positive energy, they are sensitive to people’s problems, positively influencing the biofields of those around them, but they themselves suffer.
6) People are energy Samoyeds
These people always dwell on their experiences. Samoyeds are withdrawn and consciously do not want to communicate with others. They do not know how to properly redistribute energy, so they accumulate a lot of negativity within themselves.
7) People are energy plants
People - plants give off energy, that is, they are real energy donors. This type of person is characterized by excessive curiosity. This feature brings them a lot of trouble, because it causes displeasure and anger of the people around them.
8) People are energy filters
A filter person has strong energy, capable of passing through himself a huge amount of positive and negative energy. All information absorbed by such a person in a modified form returns to its source, but carries a different charge.
Everything negative remains on the filter, to which the positive is added. “Filters” are often successful natural diplomats, peacemakers, and psychologists.
9) People are energy intermediaries
Intermediaries have excellent energy exchange. They are excellent at receiving energy, but it is extremely difficult for them to resist the effects of negative energy. For example, someone shared negative information with the intermediary and transferred negative energy to him. The intermediary cannot cope with it, so it passes the information on.
A similar situation occurs in the case of positive information. This type of people is one of the most common.
