Bill Watterson
challenges and difficulties

Bill Watterson has a critical, cynical attitude towards many religions and philosophies. Without realizing it, he prevents himself from appreciating new viewpoints and attitudes. Watterson is more rigid and dogmatic than he realizes. His approach may also be too intellectual or moralistic. Bill Watterson takes his own political beliefs and spiritual philosophy very seriously, worrying and fretting if he is not 100% clear about some ideology or theory.

He is serious by nature, and may have difficulty making small talk or participating in friendly, personal exchanges.

Bill Watterson tries to be strictly accurate and is critical of people who exaggerate or discuss subjects they really know little about. Watterson withholds his thoughts and opinions until he has thought everything through quite thoroughly, and sometimes Bill's silence discomforts others.

His mental concentration is very good but his breadth of understanding may not be.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Bill Watterson 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 Bill Watterson needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.

Instinctively he is a fighter and an individualist who can stand alone when necessary. Very often, however, Bill stands alone when he does not need to, not realizing the support, assistance, and resources others may have to offer. Bill Watterson has a tendency to "reinvent the wheel" and to feel that he must be self-reliant and that only he can come up with the answers he needs. Implicit in this attitude is a kind of arrogance as well as a rather competitive approach, which - at its worst - can alienate him from others, or make Bill Watterson feel that "it is me against the world".

Social skills and graces and what Bill Watterson calls social "games" do not come naturally to him. Bill Watterson needs to learn how to share and join others, and how to negotiate and resolve conflict with others in a cooperative way.

It is in his dealings with money, financial security, tangible assets and possessions that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues. The qualities described above are ones Bill Watterson needs to integrate in tangible ways: how he makes a living, building assets and a secure material base, what he does with the resources he has. Bill Watterson should try to avoid over involvement or entanglements with other people's money matters, legal business, and personal affairs.

The following are specific activities that will support Bill Watterson in his growth. These may or may not feel natural to Watterson, and he may initially resist or feel awkward about them, but they are crucial to his path to wholeness.

Bill Watterson should develop faith and confidence both in himself and in a higher power that can guide, nourish, and help him. He needs to expand his willingness to dream and envision better things in life by studying religion, philosophy and other subjects that enable him to acquire a larger, more inclusive view of the world.

Being generous with his time, energy and resources in helping others achieve a better life will in turn benefit Bill Watterson.

Bill Watterson should become more aware of the spiritual side of life and its underlying unity by getting involved in charitable activities and opening up his psychic channels. Meditation that develops Watterson's intuitive abilities, as well as learning about the unseen side of life through his own dream experiences or altered states of awareness, can be important steps in Bill's path.

Moreover, musical and artistic or imaginative endeavors will be important to him.

Bill Watterson tends to be a bit too idealistic and may place too much hope in his relationships, resulting in frequent disappointments. Bill could be attracted to naive people, but some of his contacts may also turn out to be swindlers.
