What is Weakness?


What is the definition of weakness? It was a long time I was thinking about it but was never sure about how to write about it that it is expressed in words the way I think about it. First of all what exactly is the definition of weakness? It is a symptom which shows that you’re not ready or afraid of doing something or taking a decision. There can be a broader definition but in that case we will have to define the definition of weak first. Most commonly a physical inability to something is called weakness. But does it fits to all the cases. Here I’ll like to add that a weakness can be anything but a physical condition, I’ll say that it is more like a mental state. A state where a person tries to avoid doing something on some pretext. There are always people who fall out of this definition of mine but this is the most common thing we can find if we look closer.
So why this condition rises? The most common one is the reluctance to any type of change. It is the fear of change that makes a person think that the outcome of any action is totally unnecessary or a disaster. Fear is the root cause of weakness. A fearless person will never be weak. Fearlessness comes as a whole package. I may sound like preaching but a fearlessness is the cure of weakness. If the given conditions a person who chooses to swim against the current is the one who will never be weak.
Finally all I can say is that there are some basic tenets we are born with. We can overcome them but these are few of the things that make us human. Weakness is not a bad word but accepting that you can never stand in the trying conditions is more like a problem.
