Suppression

Psychoanalysis : The conscious inhibition of unacceptable memories, impulses, or desires. [Oxford Dictionary]
When the word crosses my mind, it always brings a negative meaning. Something weak is restrained by a more powerful or greater thing. Mathematic says that when negative meets negative, it might produce a positive one. I might also apply to ourselves. A negative trait of me might be changed to a better one if we inhibit particular memories, impulses, or desires.
So, now I'm really working on suppressing those negative traits in me as well as inhibiting the affection from negative surrounding.

"He who controls others may be powerful, but he who has mastered himself is mightier still" - Lao Tze
