Jean-Pierre Cassel
challenges and difficulties

Jean-Pierre Cassel has a great capacity for self-denial in the pursuit of a long-range goal. Jean-Pierre is capable of hard work and persistent labor, but he may lack the capacity for joy and play. Jean-Pierre Cassel often feels burdened by life's demands and responsibilities, and may envy those who seem to attract what they want in life without a great deal of personal effort.

There is a very judgmental, stern, and uncompromising side of Cassel's that may inhibit him a great deal. Jean-Pierre Cassel must avoid becoming cumbersome and cynical, or a rather callous, sophisticated adult whose sense of practicality and realism rob him of the playful, imaginative side of life.

His childhood or his relationship with his parents was restrictive, unloving or unhappy in ways that may prevent Jean-Pierre from allowing other people to get close to him in later life. Jean-Pierre Cassel feels that he was deprived in one form or another, regardless of whether he actually was or not. His early life - at least as Cassel remembers it - may have been marked by emotional separation or repression of his needs and feelings. Forgiving his parents and/or letting go of any resentments he has about the limitations that he experienced early in his life is crucial. Also, Jean-Pierre Cassel needs to build his own solid foundation, and investing time and energy into his home, domestic relationships, and inner life can help Jean-Pierre accomplish this task.

His upbringing may have been either too demanding or somewhat lax. Jean-Pierre Cassel resists any attempt to restrict his freedom and has the ability to devote extraordinary efforts toward overcoming any inhibitions or difficulties that he may have.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Jean-Pierre Cassel 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 Jean-Pierre Cassel 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 Cassel's 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.

Jean-Pierre Cassel 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 his work and his relationships with co-workers, employers, and employees that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Integrating the qualities described above into Cassel's work and daily routine will lead to greater satisfaction, improved health, and personal growth.

The specific habits which are likely to hold Jean-Pierre Cassel back, or which he is prone to overdo, especially during stressful periods, include:

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

Jean-Pierre has the inclination to gossip and spread stories or he could be the subject of gossip himself at times. His perception of partnership and family relationships tends to be somewhat unrealistic, and Jean-Pierre Cassel may put up a good front and pretend to have a harmonious life.

Jean-Pierre should take extra care in his relationships with people, for he could easily end up in the wrong crowd. Jean-Pierre Cassel could be the victim of fraud and falsehood or through association may become an accessory to malicious action.
