AdviceMeaning
1. Define your role in societyOscar Wilde very accurately said: “Be yourself, because the rest of the roles are already taken.” And this is true: you are only unique and interesting when you remain yourself. After all, there are no identical people! Think about what you consider important for yourself in life, determine your own goal and ways to achieve it.
2. Don’t be surprised by your inconsistency.So, you get to know yourself, get acquainted with your character traits and life views... and suddenly you notice some kind of contradiction. Let's say you love animals, but you are terribly lazy (and if you are lazy, then how can you support an animal that needs attention and care?!). Don't focus on it. All people are contradictory, the main thing is to be honest with yourself (and take care of the animal).
3. Don't cling to the pastEven if at school you were a “nerd” with whom no one wanted to be friends, do not “drag” this role into the future. Finishing school means you are no longer a “nerd.” You can be absolutely anything you want. The main thing is don’t be afraid to develop!
4. Focus on your strengthsAbsolutely everyone has shortcomings! But this does not mean that you need to focus on the negative qualities of yourself. Find your strengths and develop them! Don't compare yourself to other people. Remember: there will always be someone who will be more beautiful, smarter, more successful, and so on. It's stupid to try to become the best.
5. Become an optimistMost people lose themselves not only because of the fear of evaluation (what will others think of me?!). An equally common cause of loss of self is anxiety. If you start worrying about anything, your self will slowly begin to slip away from you. As a result, you are no longer you, but the totality of others’ ideas about you. Not a very bright prospect, right? Therefore, keep your nose up!
6. Be honest and open with othersWhatever one may say, relationships with people around you have the most direct impact on your inner well-being. Therefore, try to be more sociable and understanding towards others. Accept your own imperfection and the imperfection of others.
7. Stop pleasing people!And this is perhaps the main problem, because of which a person loses himself and becomes what other people see him as. Understand: it is unrealistic to please everyone around you. Yes, this is not necessary. Just be yourself! I guarantee that there will definitely be people who will love the real you.

Please note: indeed, the most important thing in life is to preserve your own personality. At the same time, it is important to remain positive and kind. After all, anger is a destructive emotion that destroys a person.

Every day we are bombarded with a stream of negative information: either in a Russian town, schoolchildren brutally killed a disabled guy, then in the Ukrainian capital a husband mercilessly beat his wife right on the street and shot people who came to the woman’s defense with a pistol, then in a Belarusian regional center two men were beaten and shot from a teenager's pneumatic gun. What explains such unbridled cruelty? What kind of people are prone to its manifestation? We looked for answers to these and other questions together with the head of the medical and psychological department of the Vitebsk Regional Clinical Center for Psychiatry and Narcology, Nikolai Yakushkin.

The preconditions for adult cruelty should most often be sought in childhood.

No matter how trivial it may sound: it is important to raise minors correctly and demonstrate a normal model of behavior in the family.

“We need to instill in children universal human values ​​from an early age and teach them to control their emotional state,” emphasizes Nikolai Yakushkin. – This is developed in everyday activities. For example, not all children like to clean up their toys. The child, being lazy, refuses. You can't indulge the baby. After all, when your child puts away toys despite the desire to be idle, he holds back his emotions. Children also often copy the behavior of their parents. When a child sees that dad regularly raises his hand to mom, he realizes that this model of behavior is acceptable. This means that, as an adult, he will show cruelty.

It is precisely from children who were not taught to manage their emotions at one time that they usually grow up to be antisocial psychopaths.

Many of them become criminals. At the same time, alcohol plays a significant role in uncontrolled behavior.

“An antisocial psychopath cannot restrain his emotions,” says Nikolai Yakushkin. – When such a person doesn’t like something in life, he shows strong aggression that is not motivated for a well-mannered person. For example, if an antisocial psychopath is standing in line, someone accidentally steps on his foot or makes a harmless remark - the response will immediately be followed by obscene language. Moreover, after drinking a large amount of alcohol, the reactions in the brain of such a person change, aggression worsens. Let’s say you wanted to go somewhere by car, kicked the driver out of the car and got behind the wheel.

Asocial psychopaths serving time become even more embittered, so cruelty is often shown by people who have returned from prison.

“Individuals who cannot realize themselves in life and integrate into society become embittered,” explains Nikolai Yakushkin. – This is especially true for repeat offenders. In prison they accumulate negativity against society. A kind of subculture is being formed. Such people consider themselves offended by everyone and take revenge on the world for this. There is a value structure in their minds that says that crimes must be committed. This is such revenge on society for the fact that they were discarded and not appreciated. And this problem, in my opinion, needs to be solved by organizing rehabilitation centers for former prisoners.
