Do not lose your nerve or surrender - there must be harmony to succeed. If you really believe that you are right - then be firm, but never cause distress to others. Face your reality and it will clarify any disturbing influences. Obstacles can never be overcome if you lack moral or spiritual strength and you will not progress unless you fully understand this. Your weakness and overindulgence has overcome you, your courage to face life has failed and you feel overwhelmed, tormented within - your passions have become your enemy and they threaten now to destroy the conscious personality and life that it has built up for itself. Stop engaging in this mental state of "self-doubt". Do what comes naturally to you. Be self aware, uncensored - act spontaneously - KNOW yourself.

Distortion in the way of too much or too little of the above meanings. Feeling a need to be strong can prevent us accepting from others when it is their turn to give. Everyone must take as well as give. Too much strength can be part of a tendency toward complacency and stagnation.
