Renny Harlin
challenges and difficulties

Renny Harlin has a great capacity for self-denial in the pursuit of a long-range goal. Renny is capable of hard work and persistent labor, but he may lack joyfulness and the ability to play. Renny Harlin often feels burdened by life's demands and responsibilities, and may envy those who seem to attract what they want in life without a great deal of personal effort.

There is a very judgmental, stern, and uncompromising side of Harlin's which may inhibit him a great deal. Renny Harlin must avoid becoming heavy and cynical, or becoming a rather callous, sophisticated adult whose practicality and realism squeeze out the playful, imaginative side of life.

Renny Harlin takes both his work and his health very seriously, but he may demand so much of his at work that he compromise his health. Renny can become a workaholic, not so much because he has lofty ambitions, but because he never feels like he has done enough. Renny Harlin is overly responsible or overly conscientious at work, so much so that he may not enjoy it at all.

Harlin can also get overly involved in self-improvement or his health, and he tends to be a bit of a hypochondriac.

He is inclined to exercise self-control and tries to suppress his inner excitability or irritability. Harlin can be somewhat self-willed, though, and strive to be independent. If Renny Harlin feels that someone is holding him down too much, he may suddenly break up the relationship.

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

Instinctively he is a fighter and an individualist who can stand alone when necessary. Very often, however, Renny stands alone when he does not need to, not realizing the support, assistance, and resources others may have to offer. Renny Harlin has a tendency to "reinvent the wheel" and to feel that he must be self-reliant and that only he can come up with the answers he needs. Implicit in this attitude is a kind of arrogance as well as a rather competitive approach, which - at its worst - can alienate him from others, or make Renny Harlin feel that "it is me against the world".

Social skills and graces and what Renny Harlin calls social "games" do not come naturally to him. Renny Harlin needs to learn how to share and join others, and how to negotiate and resolve conflict with others in a cooperative way.

The arena he is most likely to wrestle with these issues is in playful self-expression, games or sports, and creativity. Renny Harlin should try to develop any artistic, expressive, creative potentials he feels he possesses, utilizing the qualities described above.

The specific habits which are likely to hold Renny Harlin back, or which he is prone to overdo, especially during stressful periods, include:

Excessive thinking, rationalizing or talking, the overuse or misuse of Harlin's intellectual abilities and the tendency to allow his energy to be dissipated in trivial activities.
