8. CHALLENGES (1) Positive quality diametrically opposite to the pitfall
Core quality and challenge are complementary
qualities
Balance by ‘and-and’, not ‘either-or’

9. CHALLENGES (2) Conflicts, irritation, mutual tension come from own
and others core qualities and pitfalls
To prevent your pitfall, develop your challenge

10. ALLERGIES Allergic to an excess of your own challenge
The more confrontation with allergy, the more
chance you fall into your pitfall
Allergy makes people vulnerable, not their pitfall
Resembling characters respect each other,
contrasting ones look down on each other
Looking down makes you vulnarable, you may fall
into your pitfall
