Adam Petty
challenges and difficulties

Adam Petty has a penchant for order and precision, and an almost compulsive attention to detail. He is often hypercritical and can be such a demanding perfectionist that he discourages himself or others from even attempting something that will not be done exactly the way Petty knows it should be done.

He frequently over analyzes or picks things apart mentally. Adam Petty may also be somewhat of a hypochondriac. Adam must learn that he does not have to rationally understand everything in order for it to be valid, and also to relax his unnecessarily high or strict standards.

He is very conscientious, responsible, and concerned with his duty, his public image and reputation, and becoming a person of stature in the world. Adam Petty understands the need for hard work and careful planning in order to accomplish anything substantial and he is capable of much self-discipline and patience once he sets his sights on a goal.

But Adam Petty is very judgmental and hard on himself if he fails to attain success, and he can become dry, bitter, or cynical if the world does not recognize his efforts.

Adam Petty strives and struggles a great deal with his ideals or spiritual aspirations. He may go through periods of self-denial, asceticism, and in-depth study of religious philosophy and spiritual practices, or he may lose heart and become cynical about religious ideals; however, he can never quite divorce himself from his idealistic concerns.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Adam Petty instinctively and habitually reverts to when under stress - a mostly subconscious process that he is apt to over indulge in because it is so familiar and hence easy for him. The direction Adam Petty needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.

Adam Petty's path lies in his development as an individual, the discovery of his own strengths and joys, the capacity to express his uniqueness and to stand out in a crowd. This involves becoming a leader, even though Petty's instinct is actually to be "one of the Indians" rather than the "chief". When under stress Adam Petty is apt to seek safety in numbers, to go along with the group. Also, he may believe that striving to do his personal best and to excel is wrong or selfish, but Adam should let go of this notion. Finding his own center and doing what gives him delight and energy is the most worthwhile contribution Adam Petty can offer the world at large.
