Bawically, complete self-controlWhat do you mean by self mastery? I think meditation comes to mind with this. I relate quite a bit to self mastery. It seems I've had to master myself for quite a while to defeat what it is I've had to go through. These are really personal issues but that's quite an interesting term.
It could take people most of their life, depending on their situation, to master this. I want to master this1@Nagato[/uSER] that's something I am good at when it comes to self-control that has to do with your own self but when it comes to other people it get's a bit harder. If you had of asked me 8 years ago if I thought it was possible I'd say no. Times have changed. I believe this can be achieved in time but it's much easier to have self-control of your own self than it is for other people. Then it gets much harder. The kind your referring to would take lots of meditation and age.
Asians tend to have a better self respect than most modern adults. That's why culture is so important to this site. I want people of all nations to join Mind Piff and share their beliefs. Everyone is welcome. No one will be judged based on their views.Asian philosophy might help you out.

If I don't say my piece when I'm angry, I won't ever feel rested. It's a way for me to steam off the anger. I don't get violent or anything when I'm angry.Heatman said:I think that they already discussed it further and it's basically having self control.
Exercises and going blank silent are two ways to help keep myself under control not to lose my cool easily.
It's my sister that would talk all day long whenever she's angry. We will never have peace in the house whenever she's pissed about something.Martinsx said:If I don't say my piece when I'm angry, I won't ever feel rested. It's a way for me to steam off the anger.
