If you really 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. These weaknesses might be: your dependency on other people, your uncertainty, your sentimentalism, and your weakness for comfort.

Pat Burrell is fairly organized. He is able to work long and hard to achieve his goals and elaborates fairly rigid strategies to protect himself against any foreseeable obstacles. He is so absorbed in his business that he does not always realize that he tends to be somewhat peremptory with the people around him and that he might do well to soften his tone and be more tactful at times. His friendships seem stifling and superfluous to him, and he is sometimes tormented by inner conflict when he is forced to submit to another’s will. To succeed, work to be less dogmatic. Trust in yourself and other people and flexibility.

Pat Burrell needs to consciously adapt to healthy emotional development in order to flourish. This requires that he clears away the sensations that have never been clarified and that have kept his sensitivity from blossoming fully. He seeks close relationships with people he trusts, but sometimes feels alienated from them. Were he to open himself fully to the world of relations with others, by the means of continual, subtle changes, he could prepare himself for a total metamorphosis of his destiny. His sensitivity and his relationships would have access to a new path, more altruistic, open, and dedicated to others.
