André Previn
motivation

Behind Previn's proud and magnanimous demeanor (as described on the previous page) lies a real go-getter. Others feel that he is rather narcissistic. André Previn should strive to always be aware of others' needs and concerns to prove this criticism wrong!

He is a person who thrives on challenge, and he often feels that he must battle his way through life, relying on no one and nothing but his own strength, intelligence and courage. André Previn believes in being totally honest, true to himself and his own vision and convictions, even if it means standing alone. Honesty, integrity, personal honor and authenticity are Previn's gods, and he has no sympathy for weakness of character in others.

André Previn craves the freedom to do things in his own way, and he works very well independently. Cooperating with others or carrying out another's will is not his style. André likes to be the chief - or to go it alone.

André Previn loves action and if others are settling down into a nice, comfortable little rut, then he is always ready to stir things up, do something new, make changes and introduce some fresh blood. Routine and sameness are tantamount to death for him. He is not afraid of trying something that has never been done before, and even though he may sometimes be perceived as a fool, André Previn also discovers, invents and initiates things that others will later emulate. Taking risks and following his own star are the breath of life for Previn, and he wilts (or gets very frustrated and angry) if he cannot do this.

He is spontaneous, impulsive, direct, enthusiastic and assertive. André Previn believes in the power of positive thinking and positive action, and he perceives himself as a strong, even invincible, person. André Previn hates being ill or in a position of dependency. Accepting his own human limitations and emotional needs is often difficult for him.

He is basically aggressive in his attitudes and less adept at relating to others, picking up on subtle messages and nuances, listening, nurturing and harmonizing. He is often so fired up about his own projects or goals that he inadvertently runs over or ignores other people's feelings and interests. Being receptive and appreciative of others' contributions, ideas and feelings would be highly instrumental in improving Previn's relationships. His impatience to get on with things causes André Previn to be rather insensitive, thereby alienating others unnecessarily. He also frequently tries to accomplish his goals through anger or temper tantrums. André Previn would gain much by learning to slow down, relax and sometimes just let things be, however his energetic, restless nature rarely allows André Previn to do so.

His career, reputation and public image are very important to Previn. André Previn has a strong desire to be influential or make his mark on the world. He is not satisfied with the personal sphere alone; his ambitions include making a major contribution and receiving broad recognition for his unique effort and gifts. André Previn may undervalue the personal or inner facet of life.

He is direct, energetic, sometimes aggressive and combative. André Previn often feels that he needs to fight to get what he wants, and he tends to have a "me-first" attitude that angers or irritates others. He is hasty, restless, impatient and sometimes reckless.

He is intensely willful, zealous, and fanatical though André often hides the intensity of his feelings and his personal motives and desires. Previn is infatuated with power and has an almost compulsive desire for personal recognition and the desire to be "somebody". André Previn tends to worship heroes who have powerful personal magnetism and charisma and often seeks to emulate them. André Previn both fears, and is intensely fascinated with, death and the hidden, secret, dark side of life.
