Peter O'Toole
challenges and difficulties

Peter has an innate distrust of groups and/or a cynical attitude toward society that may leave him feeling out of step and unable to participate in activities with his peers. Overcoming a sense of aloofness and alienation from others is an important task for O'Toole.

He is very conscientious, responsible, and concerned with his duty, his public image and reputation, and becoming a person of stature in the world. Peter O'Toole understands the need for hard work and careful planning in order to accomplish anything substantial and he is capable of much self-discipline and patience once he sets his sights on a goal.

But Peter O'Toole is very judgmental and hard on himself if he fails to attain success, and he can become dry, bitter, or cynical if the world does not recognize his efforts.

His faith, optimism, and sense of possibilities are tempered by a great deal of caution, and often doubt or skepticism as well. Whatever hopes or visions Peter O'Toole has for his life are firmly held in check by his sense of reality. At times he may wish for more freedom, but Peter also fears it and holds back. Peter O'Toole may blame practical limitations, some external condition or the prevailing Authority for his own inhibitions.

His ambition and desire for power may be somewhat out of proportion and O'Toole can be quite ruthless when faced with potential obstacles and difficulties. Peter O'Toole must learn to control his temper and be willing to compromise.

His attitude toward life is quite serious and he is very thorough. Peter has the need to be by himself and think out everything very carefully before he takes action. Peter O'Toole may enjoy doing some type of creative artwork involving hard or heavy materials.

As a deep thinker, Peter O'Toole has good powers of concentration. However O'Toole thinks slowly and takes his time making decisions, which are likely to be based on considerations of practicality and economy. Having little to say, Peter O'Toole prefers to talk about serious or sad things.

He is inclined to preserve and build up his heritage. Others are attracted to him, but at the same time Peter O'Toole gives the impression of being unapproachable. O'Toole tends to hold back his feelings and is somewhat inhibited with others, especially in his love relationships.

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

Cultivating the qualities of empathy, gentleness, and compassion will help counterbalance O'Toole's deeply ingrained perfectionism and critical nature. When under stress, he is apt to try to rigorously analyze and focus on what needs to be corrected or improved, and he can easily become problem-oriented and lose sight of the big picture.

Peter O'Toole has to learn to relax and surrender to the flow of events without having to figure everything out all the time. He should let his feelings and intuitions flow more freely, be more flexible and fluid, use his imagination and let his dreams emerge!

It is in any involvements he has with teams, clubs, organizations, networks, and the like that Peter O'Toole is most likely to wrestle with these issues. The qualities described above need to be channeled into some sort of group effort or experience, or have some impact on society at large.
