Alain Delon
approach to life and appearances

The following is a description of Alain's basic stance toward life, the way others see him, the way Alain Delon comes across, the face he shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Alain Delon - his real motivation, which describes the kind of person he is at heart and where his true priorities lie. Study this page and the next one and compare them - there may be significant differences between the two, in which case "the inner Alain Delon" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Alain a little better. This page describes the disguise Delon wears, his role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

He is a natural diplomat, reasonable, tolerant, fair, always willing to listen to varying viewpoints, and prepared to see the other side of an issue. Even if he strongly disagrees with someone, Alain Delon will try to find points of similarity and agreement rather than emphasizing the differences. He often avoids taking an extreme or one-sided stance on anything. Alain has a strong desire for harmonious and pleasant relationships, and revels in a spirit of cooperation, compromise, friendship, and fairness. Alain Delon very much wants to be liked and because of his need for approval and acceptance, Delon is easily influenced by others' opinions, especially those expressed by the young. He so much wants to please that often Alain Delon will suppress his own intense or unpleasant feelings in order to avoid offending others. Sometimes Delon's politeness is interpreted as being phony or wishy-washy.

His need to create harmony extends to his physical environment and personal appearance as well. Alain Delon appreciates beauty and has a natural sense of balance, symmetry, and proportion. He does everything in good taste, with a sense of style and art. From his home furnishings to his choice of clothing, everything must be aesthetically appealing, not simply functional or utilitarian.

He also feels that relationships are a form of art - one that Delon is especially interested in and usually quite skilled at, for Alain possesses tact and acute awareness of other people. Marriage is very significant to him and finding the right person to share his life with is extremely important. Being part of a close relationship seems natural to Alain Delon - he is not an independent loner. Having a partner increases his self-confidence. Alain Delon does have a tendency, however, to become overly dependent on his partner and perhaps not to develop a clearly defined identity outside of the relationship. Finding the balance between being himself and blending and uniting with another is a challenge for Alain.

Others see Alain Delon as an agreeable, smooth, harmonious, and "nice" person. Though there may be much more to him, this is the sort of face Delon shows to the world. He possesses personal charm and an understated, non-combative manner. His motto could be "one catches more flies with honey than with vinegar" for Alain Delon usually adopts a friendly, cooperative approach rather than a strong, forceful, I'm-going-to-conquer-the-world attitude.

The effect of his childhood experiences, and the beliefs and attitudes Alain learned while young, are clearly apparent in his demeanor. All is well on the surface, but when trouble arises, Alain Delon seems childish and needy. When he is in calmer waters, he appears to have a vulnerable, trusting nature that brings out the mothering instinct in others.

At times his feisty spirit, aggressiveness, and overly forceful approach get Alain into trouble. Alain Delon tends to take offense when none was intended. He may be viewed as a troublemaker, an upstart, or an egotist with little concern for others. Alain Delon needs to moderate his temper in order to avoid constant irritation with those in his environment.

He is very receptive to the influence of his environment, giving other people a chance to exploit or use him. Alain Delon has the ability to tune into the events around him, but he also should be careful not to overreact to the intentions of others.

A very self-confident personality and the ability to gain the respect of other people will almost assure Alain Delon of a position of leadership. He is likely to be successful and his efforts will be recognized by others.
