Cristiano Ronaldo
challenges and difficulties

Ronaldo both yearns for, and fears, being emotionally vulnerable to others and experiencing deep emotional intimacy. Trusting others and letting them get to know him intimately does not come easily to Cristiano, and sexual inhibitions may result from this. Cristiano Ronaldo is very self-protective and may be compulsively secretive. Learning to relinquish control in personal relationships, and to be completely open, is an important task for Ronaldo.

Cristiano Ronaldo takes his commitments to others very seriously, especially in close one-to-one relationships. His strong sense of responsibility to the other person makes Ronaldo a trustworthy and dedicated partner, but he often feels that marriage or any binding commitment between him and another person is too restrictive and burdensome, and thus seeks to avoid it. Close relationships may be more work than pleasure for Cristiano Ronaldo and it may seem that he is always "working on" his marriage rather than enjoying it. However, Ronaldo will persevere and ultimately grow through the process.

Somewhat stubborn and self-willed, Cristiano Ronaldo persists no matter what obstacles he has to overcome. He has great endurance and strength and he forces himself to work very hard. Cristiano Ronaldo may be somewhat one-sided in the pursuit of his objectives.

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

Cristiano Ronaldo benefits by becoming more aware of the rhythm of the seasons and the natural world, learning to slow down and allow life to unfold in its own time. Nurturing a garden, a child, or some other living, growing thing gives Cristiano Ronaldo a sense of inner balance.

Cristiano Ronaldo has a tendency to be deeply suspicious, to not take anything at face value and to see hidden agendas and dark motives even where none exist! Life does not have to be a constant conflict... Cristiano needs to learn to accept things as they are.

Ronaldo also needs to develop patience, peace and stability by grounding himself in his daily work and behaving consistently and reliably towards others.

It is in his relationships with others that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues. There is a dynamic balance (or conflict) within Cristiano Ronaldo between acting spontaneously and being true to himself versus modifying himself or his behavior to suit others. Cristiano Ronaldo seesaws between being inordinately concerned with his self to being overly conciliatory and concerned with others' needs, rights, or opinions about him. Learning to act authentically and forthrightly regardless of possible consequences is Ronaldo's task.

The specific habits which are likely to hold Cristiano Ronaldo back, or which he is prone to overdo, especially during stressful periods, include:

Cristiano Ronaldo's rigid self-control overly restricts his ability to freely express himself or explore possibilities. He is excessively concerned with work, duty and security. He tends to be fearful, judgmental towards himself or others, and can feel alone and cut off from sources of nourishment outside himself. Cristiano Ronaldo should try to learn to relax and recognize that not everything is Ronaldo's responsibility.
