Heroism is a very socially welcome thing. Heroes are loved and honored, they are admired, they are canonized. They want to be like them.

Becoming a hero is a very tempting prospect. It would be nice if not posthumously. Although this option of perpetuating oneself in history is very, very attractive.

If we leave the heroes of the war alone, and talk about us, heroes in everyday life, who have made the motto for themselves the rule of life - "There is always a place for feat in life!"

and see what drives us?

⦁ The thirst to be unconditionally good, which means loved, accepted by people who are significant to us;

⦁ Desire to be better, stronger, higher than others, to prove that I can do what others cannot;

⦁ Desire for power. This is all for the sake of someone? In the end, they should be grateful to you for all these torments?

Where do legs grow from?

Heroism can be a family tradition, a way of life that is passed down from generation to generation.

For example, when I was little and I complained that I was tired and that I was in pain, my grandmother said: "Pay less attention."

Mom, to the same requests to pay attention to me and let me go, answered: "But you can't go through."

If you are heroic, you have your own family attitudes that made you who you are.

The cost of heroism:

in order to do something “through I can’t,” you need to learn to alienate the impulses of your own body

Stop recognizing pain, fatigue, teach yourself not to feel disgust.

You need to stop hearing yourself and “score” on your own needs.

Only under such conditions can you become a real hero.

The habitual unconscious alienation of the impulses of its own body leads to the fact that the body begins to “live its own life”, which remains a secret for a person with seven seals.

Personality is lost both in the understanding of his needs and in the awareness of his desires.

To the question: “What do I want? " - silence. Since all the "Wishlist" were swept out once by a nasty broom.

There are only those “what you need to want”.

A person gets used to being guided by “must”, because recognition of desires is more and more difficult. If adults used to say what to do, now a person says to himself. But getting yourself to follow your own valuable guidance is getting harder and harder.

heroism and anguish turns into apathy, powerlessness, "laziness", the inability to collect oneself and the lack of desire in principle, even for seemingly interesting and useful things

If violence against oneself continues, then the body does not find anything better than getting sick in order to satisfy its needs in a different way.

Heroism has a high price - it is necessary to etch out the sensitivity to pain, desires, needs; you have to accustom yourself to eat what you give and do what you need.

But the bonuses of heroism are huge, otherwise no one would strive to become a hero.

Once upon a time, heroism was a strategy for survival, and then it just became a familiar way of being.

"Stay strong! Grit your teeth and endure!"

"They become successful only through perseverance and hard labor."

And what else can you do?

Can. And it’s probably about time.

Stop raping yourself, but learn to live at your own pace, feeling and hearing yourself.
