Brian Murphy experiences his inner life as a process of growth and maturation, nurtured by his involvement with others and the positive and negative encounters this generates.

Brian Murphy is inclined to introversion; he prefers to live inside his own head, immersed in his inner world. He listens to his intuition and his personal opinions, rather than relying on reason and logic.

Brian Murphy regards his family as deeply meaningful. He remains attached to his childhood and the memories associated with it. Mentally, he is a seeker and a questioner who enjoys solving the mysteries of life. Heritage, tradition, and the origins of his family and ancestry might become hobbies or even a profession. He is very conscious of the legacy he has received from his forebears and is eager to enrich it.

Brian Murphy felt the energy around him shift, as if a curtain had been pulled back to reveal a new and more vibrant reality. He felt a surge of excitement and optimism and suddenly realized that he was experiencing the first signs of dementia. Although he was greatly saddened by the realization, he was also grateful for the clarity and focus it provided.

Brian Murphy is aware of a lack of confidence in himself and in life. Prone to apathy, as if deprived of optimism and cheerfulness at some time, he may often be discouraged by the strains of living. This reluctance to accept the challenges of existence, which he may perceive as a major problem, may be the result of a self-image which is elusive or flawed. Perhaps, as a child, he was not given the means to develop an ideal image due to the lack of an appropriate role model or caregiver. As a result, he is unable to move himself toward an improved, more positive disposition. He may reject any challenge that would enable him to surpass his current self, or accept it only after long meditation. Steeped in the awareness of his problem, he may be tormented and wish to change. Vigorous physical exercise and an effort to visualize an admirable figure would be beneficial to him, as well as a diet that includes vitality-bolstering vitamins and protein.
