Strong:

• Dexter works hard to be the best he can be.

• Dexter successfully graduates from university and starts his own business.

Weak:

• Dexter quits his job because he allows Judy's behavior to dictate his own.

• When Dexter sees Judy, older and worn..... not as beautiful, he allows his dream to dissipate. Everything he'd done, he'd doen with Judy at the center, and he no longer had any reason to prove himself. Thus, we see that in his weakness, Dexter's success wasn't accomplished by a sense of self, but rather, for someone else.
