Roger McGuinn
challenges and difficulties

McGuinn doubts his own intelligence and mental capacities, and he may work very hard at studies in order to compensate for this. Roger is often overly serious and disinterested in light or superficial conversation. Spontaneous communication, social give-and-take, and making small talk are likely to be difficult for him.

He is serious-minded and may have difficulty making light social conversation or participating in friendly, personal interchanges.

Roger McGuinn tries to be strictly accurate and he is critical of people who exaggerate or talk on subjects they really know little about. McGuinn withholds his thoughts and opinions until he has thought everything through quite thoroughly, and sometimes Roger's silence discomforts others.

His mental concentration is very good but his breadth of understanding may not be.

He is serious and sincere about his interests, does not accept superficial answers and is not easily placated. Roger wants his inspirations to become reality and he does not mind upsetting a few apple carts in the process. Roger McGuinn becomes impatient with others for being hesitant to implement new ideas and take action, and his occasional outbreaks of brusque, insensitive behavior often do more harm than good.

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

His natural instinct, especially when under stress, is to passively go along with whatever is easiest, refrain from clearly analyzing or assessing his situation and perhaps even try to escape from seeing his situation clearly by indulging in fantasies, intoxicants, and the like. Dreaminess and impracticality, being unfocused and undefined (at least in certain areas) are ways Roger McGuinn copes with stress. Roger McGuinn also has trouble setting limits and saying no.

His development path lies in cultivating discrimination and clarity, becoming more precise, and developing technical and practical skills that will enable Roger McGuinn to function more efficiently in the world. Finding a way to be of practical service is also important.

It is in his work and his relationships with co-workers, employers, and employees that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Integrating the qualities described above into McGuinn's work and daily routine will lead to greater satisfaction, improved health, and personal growth.
