If Bryan Gould 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. These could be his excessive independence, his fear of commitment, his eccentricity, his instability, and his fear of intimacy.

Bryan Gould 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 sort of intimate relationship he and his partners want to maintain and what accomplishment or purpose they hope to achieve, many conflicts will be avoided.

Bryan Gould is rather obstinate, stubborn, and impervious to outside influences. Although his determination is an asset in bringing plans and projects to completion, it may also arouse bitter hostility against him. To fit in best, he considers working on his flexibility and diplomacy.

Bryan Gould hates contradiction. Although he has a lot of mental and intellectual concentration, he sometimes tends to be dogmatic or absolutist. His rigid mindset denotes a certain adaptive difficulty.
