Phil Donahue
challenges and difficulties

Phil Donahue often has a sense of longing or homesickness for something he cannot name or specify, and he may have both: great attraction toward, and fear of, mysticism and parapsychology.

Overcoming feelings of fear, guilt, anxiety, loneliness, or oversensitivity is an important task for Donahue.

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

Phil has an inner conflict between idealism, hope, and faith in the future versus doubt and oppression by limitations and practical realities. Phil Donahue needs to develop discipline and patience in order to achieve his aspirations. Donahue will grow by learning to accept frustration and to persevere in spite of obstacles.

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

Phil Donahue has a great capacity for sympathy, tenderness, and caring, which is a gift that he is apt to over bestow at times. For balance, Phil Donahue needs to foster mature self-discipline, self-control, and personal responsibility.

When under stress, he has a strong instinct to retreat back to the nest, to be a child again, or to become overwhelmed with feelings and longings to be taken care of. Also, he may encourage others to depend on him emotionally (and otherwise) to an unhealthy degree. Phil Donahue needs to learn how to set limits and to turn off the flow of support when necessary.

It is in any involvements he has with teams, clubs, organizations, networks, and the like that Phil Donahue 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.

Phil Donahue has a strong desire to acquire a leading position in his community. Although he is very capable of assuming leadership, Phil also has a tendency to impose his will upon others. But in spite of that, he is likely to be successful.
