Psychological work serves as a wise mentor and companion in the spiritual lives of soldiers. When you are consumed by anger, you often act foolishly; rather than regretting your actions later, it is better to practice self-control and calm your rage beforehand. Respecting life, others, and oneself is an inherent part of the journey of life and a prerequisite for mental health. — Erich Fromm. Life is like flowers that inspire admiration, like fine wine that intoxicates, like hope that empowers, and like motivation that drives us forward. To be a good soldier, one must first think of the mission, then the people, then comrades and family, and only then oneself. The soul is a window to the world; maintaining a healthy mind ensures a clear window through which to face the world, providing direction and purpose. Illness enters through the mouth, and trouble arises from the mouth; without breath, there is no life, and without poison, there are no sores. Without foresight, one will face immediate worries; having an awareness of longevity is key to maintaining a healthy body. The winner is not necessarily the fastest, but the one who can endure the longest. We should learn from the wisdom of "Wang Po selling melons": first, she has her own melons; second, she has the melons before boasting; and third, she boasts about the melons rather than herself. By experiencing the world, staying active, and exercising more, one can achieve peace of mind and a strong physique. Educating soldiers to establish correct values and high moral character is the foundation of effective psychological work. It is easy to change a habit, but difficult to change one's nature. However, for the sake of health and well-being, one must strive to change even one's temperament. If you are mentally prepared, then all preparations are complete. Human psychology often follows this pattern: the more we desire what we cannot have, the more we long for it; and the greater the obstacles encountered in pursuit of a wish, the stronger the will to struggle becomes. — Giovanni Giorgi
