Henry Kissinger
challenges and difficulties

Henry Kissinger takes his personal relationships so seriously that they may seem more like work, constant effort, and compromise, rather than a free and enjoyable sharing. He may feel that relationships in general require more of him than they are worth, and Henry enters into any close relationship cautiously and conscientiously. Henry Kissinger also fears entrapment in close relationships.

It may be difficult for Henry Kissinger to play spontaneously or just let his hair down, for he tends to inhibit that side of his by being too self-conscious and concerned with the impression he is making.

Henry may work very hard at some sport or creative medium in order to excel, for he wants very, very much to be noticed, acknowledged, and recognized as special in some way. Though he may indeed be outstanding, Henry Kissinger also needs to learn to relax and enjoy himself more.

Once he decides what he wants to do, Henry Kissinger will pursue his goal tenaciously and, if necessary, sacrifice a great deal for his deeply felt convictions. This trait tends to make Henry feel a little out of step with others. Henry Kissinger 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 Henry feels and how driven he is about the things that are important to him. Henry Kissinger 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.

His disposition is somewhat melancholic and Henry Kissinger could have a rather pessimistic outlook. Henry has an inner need to be alone and to deeply meditate on his thoughts. Henry Kissinger takes life seriously and may have been taught early on to learn from his mistakes.

Somewhat inhibited in initiating relationships with others, Henry Kissinger may prefer to be by himself. Henry 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 Henry Kissinger 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 Henry Kissinger needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.

His natural instinct, especially when under stress, is to passively go along with whatever is easiest, refrain from clearly analyzing or assessing his situation and perhaps even try to escape from seeing his situation clearly by indulging in fantasies, intoxicants, and the like. Dreaminess and impracticality, being unfocused and undefined (at least in certain areas) are ways Henry Kissinger copes with stress. Henry Kissinger also has trouble setting limits and saying no.

His development path lies in cultivating discrimination and clarity, becoming more precise, and developing technical and practical skills that will enable Henry Kissinger to function more efficiently in the world. Finding a way to be of practical service is also important.

The arena he is most likely to wrestle with these issues is in playful self-expression, games or sports, and creativity. Henry Kissinger should try to develop any artistic, expressive, creative potentials he feels he possesses, utilizing the qualities described above.

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

Going to extremes, willful rebelliousness and an instinctive anti-authoritarian attitude. Henry Kissinger seeks constant (and often purposeless) movement or change, involvement with unreliable people, and individual freedom at any cost.
