Jimmy Boyd
challenges and difficulties

Jimmy has difficulty asserting his will and desires directly and openly. He may also suppress his anger and aggressiveness. Developing self-confidence, courage, and faith in himself are important tasks for Boyd.

He may have vague but ever-present feelings of guilt and fear that are difficult to pinpoint or eradicate. It is as if Jimmy Boyd does not trust Life itself, and is always seeking ways to defend himself from its dangers and its unknowns. Jimmy Boyd must learn to overcome his ingrained habit of discouragement and anxiety, and to see the world more as a friendly place than as a treacherous one.

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

He is capable of withstanding outside influences and remaining constant and steady on his path, but when under stress Jimmy Boyd becomes downright obstinate and implacable, resisting any change no matter how necessary or desirable the change may be. Tenaciously trying to preserve the status quo and hold on to what he has, he is apt to ignore the subtle signals he receives about needing to do something differently, which often leads to a crisis.

Jimmy Boyd needs to learn the limits of his ability to control life, and to accept and even embrace change and loss of the familiar, in order to allow for new life and growth. "Letting go" is a major life lesson for him. Boyd also needs to develop a balanced attitude toward his appetites and desires, as Jimmy Boyd tends to overindulge and/or deny himself excessively.

It is in his marriage and other intimate, one-to-one relationships that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues. He may see the qualities that he needs to develop more fully (described above) in his partner. It is important for Jimmy Boyd to recognize, appreciate, and listen to the people in his life who express such attributes, as well as to develop them himself. Jimmy Boyd has to put energy and attention into learning about others, and about himself through others.
