принимать упреждающие меры | inoculate (oneself; in a figurative sense, "inoculating oneself" means taking proactive steps to protect oneself against negative influences or potential harm. This can involve developing mental or emotional resilience, establishing healthy habits or boundaries, or acquiring knowledge or skills that can help prevent or mitigate negative outcomes.
For example, a person may "inoculate themselves" against negative criticism or rejection by cultivating a strong sense of self-worth and confidence. They may do this by focusing on their strengths, engaging in positive self-talk, or seeking support from friends or a therapist.
Inoculating oneself can also involve taking precautions to avoid potential risks or dangers. For example, a person may "inoculate themselves" against financial hardship by saving money, investing wisely, or living within their means. Similarly, they may "inoculate themselves" against physical harm by practicing safe behaviors, such as wearing a seatbelt or helmet, avoiding dangerous activities or substances, and getting regular exercise and medical checkups Taras) |
