Jackie Chan
challenges and difficulties

Chan 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 Sing Lung, and sexual inhibitions may result from this. Jackie Chan 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 Chan.

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

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

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

Around others, Chan is somewhat humble and shy and prefers to be by himself. Jackie Chan tends to limit his relationships with others and associates only with like-minded people. He is inclined to be cool and reserved even toward those he loves.

Since he lacks the capacity to adapt, Jackie Chan tends to be rebellious and fight hard against oppression. This could even lead to violent incidents, so Sing Lung should try to keep his temper at bay. He may have to work extremely hard and handle a great many responsibilities.

He is inclined to be rather serious and withdrawn. As he feels very uncomfortable in the presence of others, Jackie Chan shies away from social contacts and prefers to be by himself.

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

Jackie Chan has a great capacity for sympathy, tenderness, and caring, which is a gift that he is apt to over bestow at times. For balance, Jackie Chan needs to foster mature self-discipline, self-control, and personal responsibility.

When under stress, he has a strong instinct to retreat back to the nest, to be a child again, or to become overwhelmed with feelings and longings to be taken care of. Also, he may encourage others to depend on him emotionally (and otherwise) to an unhealthy degree. Jackie Chan needs to learn how to set limits and to turn off the flow of support when necessary.

The arena he is most likely to wrestle with these issues is in playful self-expression, games or sports, and creativity. Jackie Chan 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 Jackie Chan back, or which he is prone to overdo, especially during stressful periods, include:

Being excessively egocentric or proud, needing personal recognition and applause, wanting to be center stage all the time, needing to be important and special.

Excessive thinking, rationalizing or talking, the overuse or misuse of Chan's intellectual abilities and the tendency to allow his energy to be dissipated in trivial activities.

Jackie Chan tends to over-rely on luck or grace, living for tomorrow and gambling. Sing Lung is overconfident and tends to overextend himself and take on more than is humanly possible. Sing Lung is often dogmatic about his philosophy of life or religious beliefs.

He is well mannered and has a kind, helpful and obliging nature. Jackie Chan is very social, loves to entertain and enjoys talking with people. Sing Lung feels mentally in tune with others and makes a good companion.
