Your first name of Alan creates a friendly, sociable, charming nature, but causes you to be too easily influenced by others. You have difficulty in accepting advice or being told what to do. Very often you put off activities until you are forced to take action. You are assertive and independent, yet there are times when you rely upon the support and encouragement of others before making decisions and taking action. It is sometimes difficult for you to muster the interest, initiative, and reasoning ability to concentrate and to think through complex concepts, especially in subjects that do not hold your interest. You may also enjoy working with children, perhaps in a daycare where you are teaching crafts and showing others how to be creative. This name creates conditions that are restricting, preventing you from finding complete success in your endeavours. A stubborn quality within you does not allow you to accept that you may have made a mistake or said the wrong thing. Weakness of the name centre in the fluids of the body: poor circulation, kidney or bladder troubles. When asked, you are able to give others good advice that you would probably not follow yourself, but must guard against being too opinionated in controversial matters.
