Dave Cummings
challenges and difficulties

Dave has difficulty asserting his will and desires directly and openly. He may also suppress his anger and aggressiveness. Developing self-confidence, courage, and faith in himself are important tasks for Cummings.

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

Being alone or with older, more experienced people suits Dave Cummings better than being with groups of his own peers.

Once he decides what he wants to do, Dave Cummings will pursue his goal tenaciously and, if necessary, sacrifice a great deal for his deeply felt convictions. This trait tends to make Dave feel a little out of step with others. Dave Cummings takes things a little more seriously and has an inclination to be somewhat of a fanatic, although probably not flamboyantly so; as a result, others may not be aware of how deeply Dave feels and how driven he is about the things that are important to him. Dave Cummings has a deep inner resolve and is willing to struggle to do the things that are really meaningful to him, rather than follow an easier but less meaningful course in life.

Dave Cummings tends to have inner conflicts between his responsibilities and what he would like to do. Cummings may weigh his duties favorably against his desires, making it very difficult for him to be truly happy.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Dave Cummings 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 Dave Cummings 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, Dave stands alone when he does not need to, not realizing the support, assistance, and resources others may have to offer. Dave Cummings 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 Dave Cummings feel that "it is me against the world".

Social skills and graces and what Dave Cummings calls social "games" do not come naturally to him. Dave Cummings 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 trying to strike a balance between Cummings' inner, personal life and his career or involvement with the world at large that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Dave Cummings needs to focus attention on his home and family situation, and create a secure inner anchor.

He is a born leader and has the ability to persuade members of a group or association he belongs to. Cummings always promotes the cultivation of good fellowship and teamwork, insuring success in any plans or joint undertakings he may pursue.

He is somewhat restless and nervous, but enjoys communicating with people and is constantly confronting others with his new ideas. Dave has the ability to develop new relationships quickly and he can also be a stimulating force in group activities.

Cummings always looks to establish relationships with groups or associations and has the ability to blend in unobtrusively. Dave Cummings has a way of integrating others needs and feelings, at the same time realizing and considering the proceedings of the association.

Dave Cummings has a strong desire to acquire a leading position in his community. Although he is very capable of assuming leadership, Dave also has a tendency to impose his will upon others. But in spite of that, he is likely to be successful.

Dave likes to be on the go constantly and tends to have a hectic family life. He knows how to eliminate competition, but should guard against rising to the top in his position at the expense of other people.
