James Franco
challenges and difficulties

He is very self-conscious and has a great need for ego-affirmation and praise. Expressing himself freely and openly is not easy for Franco. James Franco tends to work hard at playing and "having fun", rather than being light-hearted and spontaneous. Developing self-love and self-acceptance regardless of his "performance" is an important task for James.

James Franco has a mature, disciplined, serious attitude toward life that colors everything he does. Caution and realism are his virtues though James limits himself at times by being too careful, shy or fearful, not believing in himself enough, or lacking the required assertiveness. Others find James Franco difficult to get to know intimately, as Franco tends to distance himself from them or to outwardly adopt a rather stern, "adult" demeanor.

His physical vitality and mental energy tend to be somewhat low. For this reason James Franco should try to avoid any unnecessary emotional and physical stress and maintain good health habits in order to enhance his resistance to illness.

Sometimes circumstances appear to be working against James, and he may have to confront major challenges. James Franco will probably have to work harder than others in order to succeed, thereby rendering him hard and cold hearted in his decision-making.

James Franco tends to be somewhat insecure and uncertain about his direction in life. Frequently plagued by doubt and fear, he is inclined to worry a lot. Because Franco lacks the confidence to fight back, he may allow himself to become the victim of others.

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

Social skills and graces and what James Franco calls social "games" do not come naturally to him. James Franco 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 his way of thinking, processing information and communicating that James Franco is most likely to wrestle with these issues. In Franco's relationships with neighbors, colleagues, and acquaintances, he needs to try to bring out the qualities described above.

James Franco tends to have a certain fear of crowds and may find it hard to integrate himself into a group of people. Working with others is not easy for Franco, and he may frequently encounter upsets or hostility.
