Juanita Bynum
challenges and difficulties

Juanita Bynum has a great capacity for self-denial in the pursuit of a long-range goal. Juanita is capable of hard work and persistent labor, but she may lack the capacity for joy and play. Juanita Bynum 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 Bynum's that may inhibit her a great deal. Juanita Bynum must avoid becoming cumbersome and cynical, or a rather callous, sophisticated adult whose sense of practicality and realism rob her of the playful, imaginative side of life.

Juanita may be plagued by fear of the unknown, of change, and/or of death. She strongly resists changes and transitions rather than greeting them with curiosity or a spirit of adventure, which makes them much harder for her.

On another level entirely, Juanita Bynum is very careful about joining forces, and especially her material resources, with others. Bynum wants to keep her own and other people's property and assets very distinct.

She may frequently feel hindered or oppressed by other people and may suddenly join forces with others in order to overcome difficulties. Juanita Bynum seems to be afraid of her own courage and may find it hard to express her desires.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Juanita Bynum instinctively and habitually reverts to when under stress - a mostly subconscious process that she is apt to over indulge in because it is so familiar and hence easy for her. The direction Juanita Bynum needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.

Instinctively she is a fighter and an individualist who can stand alone when necessary. Very often, however, Juanita stands alone when she does not need to, not realizing the support, assistance, and resources others may have to offer. Juanita Bynum has a tendency to "reinvent the wheel" and to feel that she must be self-reliant and that only she can come up with the answers she needs. Implicit in this attitude is a kind of arrogance as well as a rather competitive approach, which - at its worst - can alienate her from others, or make Juanita Bynum feel that "it is me against the world".

Social skills and graces and what Juanita Bynum calls social "games" do not come naturally to her. Juanita Bynum 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 her work and her relationships with co-workers, employers, and employees that she is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Integrating the qualities described above into Bynum's work and daily routine will lead to greater satisfaction, improved health, and personal growth.
