Peggy Lipton
challenges and difficulties

She is very self-conscious and has a great need for ego-affirmation and praise. Expressing herself freely and openly is not easy for Lipton. Peggy Lipton tends to work hard at playing and "having fun", rather than being light-hearted and spontaneous. Developing self-love and self-acceptance regardless of her "performance" is an important task for Peggy.

Peggy Lipton takes both her work and her health very seriously, but she may demand so much of herself at work that she compromises her health. Peggy can become a workaholic, not so much because she has lofty ambitions, but because she never feels like she has done enough. Peggy Lipton is overly responsible or overly conscientious at work, so much so that she may not enjoy it at all.

Lipton can also get overly involved in self-improvement or her health, and she tends to be a bit of a hypochondriac.

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

Peggy Lipton needs to take what she has learned (either through formal education or her 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 Peggy's quality of life or that of persons in her world, is of little real value. Putting Lipton's understanding, philosophy, and convictions into practice in her daily relationships, and in the multiple choices she makes every day, will enable Peggy Lipton to really test her belief system and discover more about life.

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

It is in trying to strike a balance between Lipton's inner, personal life and her career or involvement with the world at large that she is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Peggy Lipton needs to focus attention on her home and family situation, and create a secure inner anchor.

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

Peggy Lipton should be willing to become more of a free thinker, to experiment and change, to loosen her ties to tradition and the known and to allow for new developments. She needs to practice getting involved in an area involving new techniques, rapid changes and innovation. Peggy can be part of the avant-garde promoting such changes - be it in science, music or social relationships. Peggy Lipton has to be willing to be different and perhaps to be considered eccentric or odd.

Peggy should take extra care in her relationships with people, for she could easily end up in the wrong crowd. Peggy Lipton could be the victim of fraud and falsehood or through association may become an accessory to malicious action.
