Ann Landers
challenges and difficulties

She is very self-conscious and has a great need for ego-affirmation and praise. Expressing herself freely and openly is not easy for Landers. Ann Landers tends to work hard at playing and "having fun", rather than being light-hearted and spontaneous. Developing self-love and self-acceptance regardless of her "performance" is an important task for Ann.

Landers is generally not a "joiner" and she does not feel comfortable in clubs, organizations or other groups of people that are centered on some common ideal or interest. If Ann Landers does participate in a group, she may find the rules and procedures restrictive - or she may simply feel that she does not fit in with the others.

Being alone or with older, more experienced people suits Ann Landers better than being with groups of her own peers.

Ann Landers tends to be somewhat gloomy and may feel that life is difficult and that her will is blocked in some way. Ann could find it hard to make decisions and to concentrate on her goals and may consider them not worthwhile.

Ann Landers may often be coerced into doing things that she does not want to do, leaving her frustrated, irritable and touchy. Ann could turn hard and unforgiving toward others and may break up some important relationships.

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

It is easy for Ann Landers to become distracted from her path by the multitude of interesting choices, possibilities, and options available to her. Ann Landers needs to develop single mindedness and focus. Until Ann directs her attention to some of the big questions, such as "What is my life's purpose?" "What is really important to me and essential to my happiness?", she is apt to dabble, scatter her energies in many directions and engage in activities which are entertaining but ultimately neither fruitful nor enriching.

Having an overall vision for her life and aligning her daily activities so that they support rather than detract from Landers' larger purpose in life, is a significant step toward her personal development.

It is in trying to strike a balance between Landers' inner, personal life and her career or involvement with the world at large that she is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Ann Landers needs to focus attention on her home and family situation, and create a secure inner anchor.

Ann Landers has a friendly, open and sociable manner and a strong desire to cultivate relationships with warm and congenial people. She may enjoy participating in artistic events and she likes to associate with art lovers.
