Walter Lantz
challenges and difficulties

Walter Lantz has a great capacity for self-denial in the pursuit of a long-range goal. Walter is capable of hard work and persistent labor, but he may lack joyfulness and the ability to play. Walter Lantz 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 Lantz's which may inhibit him a great deal. Walter Lantz 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.

It may be difficult for Walter Lantz 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.

Walter 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, Walter Lantz also needs to learn to relax and enjoy himself more.

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

It is easy for Walter Lantz to become distracted from his path by the multitude of interesting choices, possibilities, and options available to him. Walter Lantz needs to develop single mindedness and focus. Until Walter directs his attention to some of the big questions, such as "What is my life's purpose?" "What is really important to me and essential to my happiness?", he is apt to dabble, scatter his energies in many directions and engage in activities which are entertaining but ultimately neither fruitful nor enriching.

Having an overall vision for his life and aligning his daily activities so that they support rather than detract from Lantz's larger purpose in life, is a significant step toward his personal development.

It is in trying to strike a balance between Lantz's inner, personal life and his career or involvement with the world at large that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues. Walter Lantz needs to focus attention on his home and family situation, and create a secure inner anchor.

Walter Lantz should develop faith and confidence both in himself and in a higher power that can guide, nourish, and help him.

Being generous with his time, energy and resources in helping others achieve a better life will in turn benefit Walter Lantz.

Walter Lantz should be willing to become more of a free thinker, to experiment and change, to loosen his ties to tradition and the known and to allow for new developments. He needs to practice getting involved in an area involving new techniques, rapid changes and innovation. Walter can be part of the avant-garde promoting such changes - be it in science, music or social relationships.
