If George really wants to improve and transform himself, the first step is to become aware of the weaknesses which may be holding him back and preventing his evolution:
– his defensive attitudes
– his fear of being dispossessed
– his ambivalence
– his radicalism
– his over-reliance on his instincts

GeorgeNotFound may experience discord in relationships. Although GeorgeNotFound is friendly and outgoing and commits GeorgeNotFoundself to friendships and partnerships, GeorgeNotFound often finds it difficult to balance GeorgeNotFound’s own needs, desires, and goals with the objective reality of others and their individual desires and needs.

To understand and overcome this problem, GeorgeNotFound 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 GeorgeNotFound succeeds in defining, through discussion and communication, what sort of intimate relationship GeorgeNotFound and GeorgeNotFound’s partners want to maintain and what accomplishment or purpose they hope to achieve, many conflicts will be avoided.

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