If you want to improve and transform yourself, the first step is to become aware of the weaknesses which may be holding you back and preventing your evolution. Your preference for illusion, your hypersensitivity, your emotionalism, your lack of self-confidence, and your guilt are all potential weaknesses which may be holding you back.

Although it sometimes seems easier to me to climb the rungs of the career ladder out there in the real world, if I merely sacrifice my domestic life, I am only trying to fool myself. I should accept the fact that my domestic life is the true basis and foundation of my development. All my career endeavors and success will be even more rewarding if they are supported by a safe, warm personal life.

Andre Rison’s emotions are fluctuating and unstable. Although he has the ability to detach himself from his emotions to analyze and observe them, this tendency sometimes prevents him from truly engaging himself in emotional terms and may act as a defense against any emotional impact. This is the reason why he subjects all his feelings to an intellectual interpretation rather than yielding to them. It is also the reason why he might falter, hesitate, contradict himself and seem to say both yes and no when he has an opportunity to commit himself emotionally. Andre Rison should make a conscious effort to overcome this unconscious conditioning which may be related to his childhood. He must first learn to observe and assimilate other people’s feelings instead of rejecting them. This exercise will teach him to understand his own reactions and affects better.

Andre Rison is sensitive and sometimes impressionable. This can be a productive and creative factor, but if he doesn’t manage to control his emotionalism, it can also hamper his adaptation to the realities of life. If that were to be the case, his ability to find happiness within himself could gradually cut him off from his environment. He must thus work on detaching himself from his emotions and getting a handle on his sensitivity. His intuitive ability to perceive other people’s inner energies could predestine him for a socially oriented career. As a caregiver, healer, helper, guide, or advisor, he could succeed in teaching, psychology or psychiatry, or social work.
