It is when I put off going for the road test to get my driver's license because I am afraid of the intimidation of the person who will be with me... the examiner. I am hoping one day to get over this one, but in the meantime, I think it certainly would qualify as weakness. Weakness might also be when you let someone walk all over you, and you don't put an end to it by leaving, or by putting your foot down, and standing up to him. It is very hard to define it well, because it is so tied up in judgments. Weakness. I feel weak when I allow myself to accept not trying for the road test. If you have been picked on a lot while you were growing up, you might appear to be weak when you are older, but there are definite reasons why you are the way you are. The bottom line is to find ways to get past it, and get your license, and get free of anyone who is not right for you. I think sometimes life offers you these little grace notes where a door of opportunity will suddenly open up for you, and you can accomplish something you previously thought you would never be able to do. I did that one one windy afternoon on the spur of the moment - I just reported to the motor vehicle bureau and took and passed my learner's permit without giving it a second thought. I just felt at that moment I could handle it, and I did, it went fine, and I got it. The way I interpret your question is to be very careful who you call weak, because if you look into yourself, you probably have weakness that nobody else knows about. I know the stuff I have mentioned seems really trivial, but when it is happening to you it is not trivial at all. It becomes a stumbling block. The idea, however, is to find a way to get past it, and I will because I think it would be fun to be able to drive a car, especially at 63 years old. I am getting a little tired of the bicycle.

The inability to comprehend "why." In any situation, if you can understand why it works/doesn't work then you can adjust to it. Your boss treats condescends to you (treats you like a child), is it because of how you act or something you did in the past that makes him think you can't handle anything without some coddling?
Your TV won't turn on (unplugged or broken), your kid won't stop crying (in pain or hungry, etc.), this one steals your money or you keep going over budget. The universe hasn't collapsed yet or why Bush wanted war; there are so many questions and only when you can learn the answer why can you then fix the situation. If you cannot figure out why the process is no longer controllable and then you must trust to others to fix the situation. If they can't you suffer (or maybe die).
Therefore, the first weakness is to not know why; and the second is being unable to trust someone (God, family, friends, leaders--anyone that you trust to be able to help you) when you cannot know why.

Weakness is an interchange and conversion point, that may take you on wrong route, other than your goal and destination. Some times your weaknesses result as good fortune for you by keeping you away from something that was not good for you.
Like if I would have a gun in my teenage, may be I would have killed someone. So my weakness saved me from a big problem.

It is the inability to carry out what is in your mind to do, which you know is right and proper.
The weakness is the natural reaction of the self saying, will I make a fool of myself, will I get this all wrong or indeed am I wrong.
Self doubt takes over and you let it, that in itself is a weakness.
To get through life you must be positive know you will make mistakes and be honest enough to acknowledge them and learn from them.
Weakness is as simple as not being able to say no. To anything and everything, when you know you really should.
Weakness is a human failing and we all suffer from it.

In my opinion, weakness is displayed when one cannot step out of their own prejudice and find compassion for another human being.
