George Burns
challenges and difficulties

Burns both yearns for, and fears, being emotionally vulnerable with others and experiencing deep emotional intimacy. Trusting others and letting himself be known in a deep way does not come easily to George, and sexual inhibitions may result from this. George Burns 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 Burns.

George Burns takes both his work and his health very seriously, but he may demand so much of his at work that he compromise his health. George can become a workaholic, not so much because he has lofty ambitions, but because he never feels like he has done enough. George Burns is overly responsible or overly conscientious at work, so much so that he may not enjoy it at all.

Burns can also get overly involved in self-improvement or his health, and he tends to be a bit of a hypochondriac.

He is serious and sincere about his interests, does not accept superficial answers and is not easily placated. George wants his inspirations to become reality and he does not mind upsetting a few apple carts in the process. George Burns becomes impatient with others for being hesitant to implement new ideas and take action, and his occasional outbreaks of brusque, insensitive behavior often do more harm than good.

At times George Burns struggles with nebulous worries and insecurities, fears which may be difficult to name. Mostly, he may be afraid of getting acquainted with the inner workings of his mind and soul, feeling uneasy with anything irrational or intangible. George Burns has to work hard to overcome being overly serious regarding the spiritual side of life, especially if his religious upbringing emphasized guilt and retribution. Reorienting himself in the direction of spiritual optimism will do much to lift the cloud of worry that settles over George occasionally.

Somewhat inhibited in initiating relationships with others, George Burns may prefer to be by himself. George could feels that he does not fit in very well with others and as a result may have difficulties in team-work with groups or associations.

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

Cultivating the qualities of empathy, gentleness, and compassion will help counterbalance Burns' deeply ingrained perfectionism and critical nature. When under stress, he is apt to try to rigorously analyze and focus on what needs to be corrected or improved, and he can easily become problem-oriented and lose sight of the big picture.

George Burns has to learn to relax and surrender to the flow of events without having to figure everything out all the time. He should let his feelings and intuitions flow more freely, be more flexible and fluid, use his imagination and let his dreams emerge!

It is in any involvements he has with teams, clubs, organizations, networks, and the like that George Burns is most likely to wrestle with these issues. The qualities described above need to be channeled into some sort of group effort or experience, or have some impact on society at large.

George Burns has a very sympathetic and compassionate attitude toward others and shows his interest in their well-being. His relationships are more on a personal basis and people are drawn to Burns because of his sincerity and kindness.
