There Is this funny saying, ONE THING MUST KILL A MAN! well, it's quite funny, but as funny as it may sound, its quite true as well, why do I agree to this term? First and foremost, I'll say that we are humans and we tend not to be perfect, we probably only think of what's in our mind and not what others are thinking.
We are on earth and so because of that, we are in the midst of so many imperfections. What kind of imperfections I'm I talking about?
We can probably run late for something, we cound have an accident, we could curse a person for offending us, we could punish, we could kill, we could be jealous, we could be angry, we could fall short at any point.
These are why we are humans, these are why we are imperfect, these are why we have fears, these are why we have weaknesses, or weak points that will make us fall short of who we really want to be.
I feel like there is no one this earth that will not have a weak point, cause like I started, one thing must kill a man and that thing can only be controlled or managed better.
So many people have a lot of phobias that makes them less if themselves and so no matter how much influencing they can be, there is still something that can take him down.
Let's look at the Bible for an example, Samson had a whole lot of advantages that made him what he was,the things that made him get known both far and near, a gift that brought Nations to his feet, Samson was known to be the strongest Man alive, and in my own understanding I called him the first hulk, cause he had the powers of more than 10 different men, I mean, it is that not something you see often that a man has a very unique strength.
All of these gave him the advantages over his family, over his state and even over his country, but then he was just put down by just one woman, someone that defeated a whole army with a bone on his hand was defeated by a woman, the woman only needed to know his weak point, and as soon as she got it, it was used against him and he lost his powers.

So yeah, our fears, or phobias, our weaknesses can mar us. My weakpoint is a state where I become lazy, at this point, I could have a lot of work to do, but I will just be looking at it, and even if I have to do it, probably because a client is on my neck, I'll do it but my actions will be lackadaisical, and might not produce at the best.
I hate being lazy, it's actually not something I always am, I am always active, but when I become lazy, it seams like I do not know I am doing and it could make me loose a client or even an opportunity.
Now with the help of being intentional a lot working on my weaknesses, it helps me to channel this laziness to when I'm less busy, so instead of calling it laziness, i'll call it a time to rest, a time relax and while away time, and so at this point I'll not loose anything I'll only pass time.
Our weaknesses might not be able to be stopped but it can be managed well. let's look for how to manage our weaknesses so that we don't end up regretting.
