A prevailing challenge some ~ancestor~ ancestors would have had in common was their tendency to be self-critical. This may have suppressed their creativity and originality (to avoid feelings of insecurity or the judgment of others). Due to this sensitivity, they may have tended to be somewhat antisocial or kept relationships on a superficial level. 

The crux of this challenge was to recognize the value of and to express their unique creative talents. This would have been a process of individuation and becoming free of the need to conform to others"™ expectations.
