Steve Norman
challenges and difficulties

Steve Norman has a great capacity for self-denial in the pursuit of a long-range goal. Steve is capable of hard work and persistent labor, but he may lack the capacity for joy and play. Steve Norman 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 Norman's that may inhibit him a great deal. Steve Norman must avoid becoming cumbersome and cynical, or a rather callous, sophisticated adult whose sense of practicality and realism rob him of the playful, imaginative side of life.

It may be difficult for Steve Norman to play spontaneously or just let his hair down, for he tends to inhibit that side of his by being too self-conscious and concerned with the impression he is making.

Steve may work very hard at some sport or creative medium in order to excel, for he wants very, very much to be noticed, acknowledged and recognized as special in some way. Though he may indeed be outstanding, Steve Norman also needs to learn to relax and enjoy himself more.

The side of Steve Norman that wants and needs structure, order, stability, and a disciplined way of life is at odds with his urges for unfettered freedom, change, excitement, and discovery. There is apt to be much discontent, inner stress, and tension as a result, and at times Steve finds it hard to relax. Steve Norman may act out in a rebellious way now and then, or clamp down hard on himself, in an attempt to strictly control his "wild" impulses. Norman's task is to try to find a reasonable balance between order and creative chaos in his life.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Steve Norman 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 Steve Norman 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 Steve Norman copes with stress. Steve Norman 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 Steve Norman to function more efficiently in the world. Finding a way to be of practical service is also important.

It is in his dealings with money, financial security, tangible assets and possessions that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues. The qualities described above are ones Steve Norman needs to integrate in tangible ways: how he makes a living, building assets and a secure material base, what he does with the resources he has. Steve Norman should try to avoid over involvement or entanglements with other people's money matters, legal business, and personal affairs.
