Peter Holm
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 Holm. Peter Holm 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 Peter.

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

Being alone or with older, more experienced people suits Peter Holm better than being with groups of his own peers.

He is suspicious of groups, crowds, and social organizations. Holm is quick to pick up on social charades and insincerity and avoids the limelight and glamour. Peter Holm is direct and to the point in speech and manner, stubborn and inflexible, and often unwilling to communicate his innermost feelings and thoughts.

Peter should take care not to trust others too blindly. Some of his friends or associates may be untruthful and try to deceive him, resulting in great disappointments or even losses for Holm.

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

Peter Holm 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 Peter's quality of life or that of persons in his world, is of little real value. Putting Holm's understanding, philosophy, and convictions into practice in his daily relationships, and in the multiple choices he makes every day, will enable Peter Holm to really test his belief system and discover more about life.

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