Ludwig Wittgenstein
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 Wittgenstein. Ludwig Wittgenstein 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 Ludwig.

His attitude toward religion, philosophy, and politics is very conservative and possibly narrow or rigid. On the one hand, Ludwig Wittgenstein may believe in nothing that is speculative or intangible, requiring proof for any idea presented to him. Each idea is thoroughly and systematically examined. On the other hand, Ludwig may tenaciously cling to his grand philosophical or metaphysical beliefs and opinions, refusing to modify them or to be open and receptive to others' insights and perspectives.

His overall outlook on life is serious, and Ludwig Wittgenstein may feel that life or God will punish him if he does not watch his steps!

Wittgenstein works quietly to get ahead, but may have to work harder than others to gain recognition for his efforts. Reserved and shy, Ludwig Wittgenstein tends to build a wall between himself and others and he seems to be more receptive to older and mature people.

Ludwig wants to go his own way and tends to withdraw into himself. He prefers to be alone and tends to cut himself off from other people. Ludwig Wittgenstein could be a bit too serious and conservative.

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

When under stress, Ludwig Wittgenstein is apt to shut off the flow of his emotions and ignore his needs and feelings in order to do what he perceives as his duty or simply what the practical realities of the situation dictate. This can lead to a certain rigidity and inflexibility. If overdone, self-control, self-discipline, or an exaggerated concern over what society, family or others expect of him, makes life more of a burden than an adventure.

Fostering his tender, caring, feminine, and nurturing aspects is an important step in Ludwig Wittgenstein's growth. Ludwig Wittgenstein needs to learn how to nourish and lovingly tend to both himself and others. Letting himself be taken care of sometimes is okay!

It is in relationships that are more than superficial or casual - in particular in cases where Ludwig Wittgenstein has merged emotionally, legally, or financially with another person - that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Wittgenstein will see these issues arise in close partnerships of any kind, especially when there is a mutual dependency involved. Dealing with in-laws, inheritances, and legal matters involving joint custody, shared assets, and resources is also a part of this.

Ludwig Wittgenstein has a strong desire to acquire a leading position in his community. Although he is very capable of assuming leadership, Ludwig also has a tendency to impose his will upon others. But in spite of that, he is likely to be successful.
