Margaret Mitchell
challenges and difficulties

Margaret Mitchell has a great capacity for self-denial in the pursuit of a long-range goal. Margaret is capable of hard work and persistent labor, but she may lack the capacity for joy and play. Margaret Mitchell 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 Mitchell's that may inhibit her a great deal. Margaret Mitchell 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.

Mitchell is generally not a "joiner" and she does not feel comfortable in clubs, organizations or other groups of people that are centered on some common ideal or interest. If Margaret Mitchell does participate in a group, she may find the rules and procedures restrictive - or she may simply feel that she does not fit in with the others.

Being alone or with older, more experienced people suits Margaret Mitchell better than being with groups of her own peers.

The conflict between spiritual needs and ideals versus material desires or limitations of the "real world" is one of Margaret's ongoing challenges. It may be hard for Margaret Mitchell to sort out her true values, especially when she is enmeshed in the demands of mundane life. Times of retreat, isolation, meditation and prayer could be helpful to Mitchell in this regard. Finding inner strength through spirituality and attunement to a higher source is ultimately the answer for her.

She is inclined to be rather serious and withdrawn. As she feels very uncomfortable in the presence of others, Margaret Mitchell shies away from social contacts and prefers to be by herself.

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

It is easy for Margaret Mitchell to become distracted from her path by the multitude of interesting choices, possibilities, and options available to her. Margaret Mitchell needs to develop single mindedness and focus. Until Margaret directs her attention to some of the big questions, such as "What is my life's purpose?" "What is really important to me and essential to my happiness?", she is apt to dabble, scatter her energies in many directions and engage in activities which are entertaining but ultimately neither fruitful nor enriching.

Having an overall vision for her life and aligning her daily activities so that they support rather than detract from Mitchell's larger purpose in life, is a significant step toward her personal development.

It is in her public life and career that Margaret Mitchell is most likely to wrestle with these issues. The latter will impact Mitchell's reputation and standing in her community or professional circle, as well as how Margaret Mitchell achieves her important life goals and aspirations.

The following are specific activities that will support Margaret Mitchell in her growth. These may or may not feel natural to Mitchell, and she may initially resist or feel awkward about them, but they are crucial to her path to wholeness.

Margaret Mitchell has to learn to communicate and express herself through the written or spoken word. It is best for Margaret to study, learn skills and develop her intellectual interests and capacities. Mitchell needs to become involved in sharing and exchanging information with others and in developing her intellectual reasoning ability. Margaret Mitchell should practice using her mind, her thinking skills and her ability to be objective. "Work smarter, not harder" might be a motto for her.

Writing, teaching, recording, transcribing, dialoguing, negotiating, mediating, communicating, or facilitating clear communication are significant activities for Margaret Mitchell to pursue.

Margaret Mitchell has a very engaging manner in the company of others and her relationships with other people are likely to be harmonious. Some of her connections may prove to be helpful to Margaret with her plans.

Margaret likes to be constantly on the go and tends to have a hectic family life. She knows how to eliminate competition, but should guard against rising to the top in her position at the expense of other people.
