Disadvantages can prevent a person from achieving certain goals, as well as building effective relationships with others. If you want to get rid of the flaws in your personality, work on yourself.
Introspection
First of all, you need to determine which flaws are hindering you in life. Try to get to the bottom and think about what qualities of your character are behind this or that defect. For example, you may feel that you are unable to be a good conversationalist because of your inability to listen to the other person. The reason for this may be impatience, absorption in some of their obsessive thoughts, superficiality, egocentrism and many other character traits. Only you yourself can understand what personal qualities you should pay attention to when working on shortcomings.
It is necessary to understand that the quality itself or several qualities that you noted for yourself can be an inseparable part of your personality. You most likely will not be able to get rid of them completely. Know that this is not a bad thing. Otherwise, you would turn into another person, losing your own individuality. Moreover, the same quality can be beneficial as well as harm.
Depending on in which situation and from which side to look at a certain trait, it can be positive or negative. Frugality turns into stinginess, initiative into obsession, and so on. Thus, your goal should not be to eradicate some quality in yourself, but to be able to manage your condition in such a way that this trait manifests itself only from the positive side.
Action plan
To improve your character, it is important to learn how to control your own behavior. Then you will be able to reveal your best side and use every quality of your personality for your own good. Learn basic techniques for managing your emotions. This can be a deep breathing technique or various visualizations.
Next, you need to become more flexible and, depending on the situation, show different sides of your character. Indeed, in one person, kindness and perseverance can be combined. If in an empty argument he shows the second quality, then those around him may consider him a stupid stubborn person. And if, in a situation where it is simply necessary to show character and defend one's own interests, softness wins the personality of the individual, the person will not be able to achieve his goals.
Remember that you are a complex person. Know how to play with its edges in such a way that you remain at your best in any position. This is the fight against disadvantages. And if you study yourself well, and then work on your character, you can better interact with others and find inner harmony.
