@Troy Periodically you decide to learn something and you will choose an approach that goes plays against your strength. Thereby turning a weakness into an asset. This will apply in the following fields: friendships; cousins or siblings; lovers, certain work settings especially when they are problematic; lovers and games. However you don't use this approach with partners or strategically with your career. However it doesn't work with another alpha, or at least not one that is a new acquaintance.
Also when you feel like you aren't moving forward with life goals you will break yourself down and contemplate what you need to do to have things moving forward again. So when life is slow you reinvent yourself. However I would see that you get surprised by the process.
You also cut off the following people if you feel they are hindrance to you growth: Father type figures; teachers; neighbors; cousins; angry women, maternal figures and your partner. You will feel an affinity towards women that play against stereotypes or are interested in fields that are predominantly male.
