Noam Chomsky
challenges and difficulties

Noam Chomsky has a critical, cynical attitude towards many religions and philosophies. Without realizing it, he prevents himself from appreciating new viewpoints and attitudes. Chomsky is more rigid and dogmatic than he realizes. His approach may also be too intellectual or moralistic. Noam Chomsky takes his own political beliefs and spiritual philosophy very seriously, worrying and fretting if he is not 100% clear about some ideology or theory.

Noam Chomsky has a mature, disciplined, serious attitude toward life which colors everything he does. Caution and realism are his virtues though Noam limits himself at times by being too careful, shy, or fearful, and not believing in himself enough or being assertive when necessary. Others find Noam Chomsky difficult to get to know intimately, as Chomsky tends to distance himself from them or to put forth a rather stern, "adult" face to the world.

Noam Chomsky tends to be his own worst enemy, demanding inhuman perfection of himself and harshly criticizing or persecuting himself when he does not measure up. Perhaps circumstances or relationships in his life have been extremely difficult and demanding, reinforcing Noam's belief that he must struggle alone.

He is capable of tremendous effort and of overcoming great odds and handicaps. Through these efforts Noam Chomsky develops his power and inner strength. However, Noam Chomsky should not make life harder than it is. He must give himself permission to let up sometimes, and to realize that he is only human.

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

Noam Chomsky needs to take what he has learned (either through formal education or his own questing and life experience) and share it with others, communicate it or express it in a way that can benefit others. Knowledge and understanding, which does not enhance either Noam's quality of life or that of persons in his world, is of little real value. Putting Chomsky's understanding, philosophy, and convictions into practice in his daily relationships, and in the multiple choices he makes every day, will enable Noam Chomsky to really test his belief system and discover more about life.

When under stress, Noam Chomsky is apt to seek refuge in imagining that the grass is greener elsewhere, rather than working with what is at hand. Noam Chomsky needs to cultivate his ability to live in the present!

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 Chomsky's work and daily routine will lead to greater satisfaction, improved health, and personal growth.
