Of all the people you should fear, fear most the peaceful man in situations where anyone else would be aggressive. The strongest man is the one who masters his emotions in moments of rage and fury—who, even in anger, does not destroy everything around him, including himself.
Remember: no man truly knows how evil he can be until he strives to be good in a corrupt world and, for that, is crushed by it.
Anxiety makes a man suffer even before there is a concrete reason. The mere act of anticipating pain makes him feel it in its full intensity, even if it never materializes. On the other hand, anxiety leads to rash actions, driven by impulse or anger. And these decisions, in the end, can destroy him.
The most harmful choices are usually made under stress, rage, or passion. Anxiety, in turn, is a formidable adversary, difficult to tame. Controlling it requires constant and gradual training. The key is to balance expectations—facing the future with serenity rather than allowing worries to corrode the present. Sometimes, it is necessary to abandon the life we planned to face the life that awaits us. Instead of acting impulsively in moments of deep stress, learn to reflect rationally on all possibilities before taking action.
I recognize that, in theory, this advice is easy to give. Sono d’accordo, I know how difficult it is in daily life. But listen well: do not let your actions be driven by impulsiveness. Remember, stubbornness combined with anxiety is a direct path to a pit of regrets.
Stubbornness, unlike persistence, makes a man insist on mistakes or ignore wise counsel. It forces him to act against logic, preventing him from learning from failures and reevaluating decisions. It is a silent source of suffering, robbing him of opportunities for change and growth.
Just as a river reaches its destination by adapting to the course it encounters, a wise man must seek new approaches rather than persist in the same mistakes. Adapting, learning, and changing course are the keys to reaching one’s true destiny.
