If you want to improve yourself, the first step is to become aware of your weaknesses, which may be holding you back and preventing your evolution. These are your insatiable appetites, your stubbornness, your grimness, and your reluctance to change.

You often sense a conflict between your desire for social and professional success and your need for a stable, secure domestic life. You are deeply committed to both ideas and do not always succeed in reconciling their schedules and demands on you. Sometimes it feels as though you will never be able to find a balance. However, no job promotion will really satisfy you if you have neglected your most intimate needs and desires. Although it sometimes seems easier to you to climb the rungs of the career ladder out there in the real world, if you merely sacrifice your domestic life, you are only trying to fool yourself. You should accept the fact that your domestic life is the true basis and foundation of your development. All your career endeavors and success will be even more rewarding if they are supported by a safe, warm personal life.

Brett Kramer may experience discord in relationships. Although he is friendly and outgoing and commits himself to friendships and partnerships, he often finds it difficult to balance his own needs, desires, and goals with the objective reality of others and their individual desires and needs. To understand and overcome this problem, he should accept the idea that every relationship follows more or less the same general scheme: a base of intimacy and an accomplishment or purpose apart from the relationship itself. If he succeeds in defining, through discussion and communication, what kind of intimate relationship he and his partners want to maintain and what accomplishment or purpose they hope to achieve, many conflicts will be avoided.

Brett Kramer has deeply anchored emotional needs. Invariably, he tries to revive these sensations from his personal history, clinging to the security provided by the repetition of a feeling which produced a positive effect in the past. His desire for possession (tangible or emotional) could become a problem, because he may fixate on an object which is negative or bad for him. He will do well to make a conscious effort to overcome this unconscious negative conditioning which may be related to his childhood.

Brett Kramer’s mental processes are quick. As a result, he jumps to conclusions and makes decisions quickly before he knows all the facts. This rash and impetuous behavior can cause communications problems and arouse opposition in others. His mind is generally too busy with the immediate future to take time for careful analysis and reflection. He would do well to slow down and organize himself before he speaks, but the same behavior has a positive side. It can be of great use to him in rushed or quickly changing work situations, which require last-minute, immediate decisions.
