Billy Graham
drive and ambition
He is aspiring, enterprising, and forever following some bright and distant star, planning some new venture or investigating new potentials. He is definitely "upwardly mobile" in either a material or spiritual sense. Billy Graham aims high and is not content simply with a quiet, secure existence. Billy likes to stretch his limits, to see how far he can go, and to take risks. He is a positive thinker, expects success for himself, and is philosophical about failures. Graham is flexible and he bounces back from disappointment rather quickly, usually with another hopeful new idea he wants to try. His enthusiasm and confidence are contagious and enable Billy Graham to enlist the aid and support he needs for his projects. However, Billy Graham sometimes promises more than he can actually achieve, because he is overly optimistic or pays insufficient attention to the practicalities involved.
He also tends to get distracted and to have too many things going at once. Although it is very difficult for him, there are times when Billy Graham simply must develop commitment, perseverance, and persistence in order to make his dreams and goals a concrete reality. Too often Billy Graham falls short of what he could attain because he is unwilling to persist through the difficult or less exciting times.
He also enjoys competition and usually does not take it too seriously. Sports and entrepreneurial endeavors are good ways to channel Billy's energy.
He has passionate convictions and will fight for them when challenged. Billy Graham is willing to dedicate a great deal of his energy and force to an important cause, and he will act decisively on his beliefs, rather than simply espousing them.
Sometimes Graham gets so involved and identified with his ideas that he cannot really be receptive to anyone who opposes him philosophically.
Billy Graham possesses the gifts of endurance and perseverance, the willingness to work hard and seriously to achieve his objectives. Once he decides he wants something or makes a commitment, Billy Graham will do it "even if it takes forever". Self-discipline is natural to Billy and he instinctively realizes that any creative achievement is "10% inspiration, 90% perspiration". Graham chooses practical, realistic goals and pursues them step-by-step in a well-planned, orderly way. Billy Graham likes to concentrate on one thing at a time and he does a thorough job. He enjoys working in solitude, and often feels his best work is done when he is alone.
Although he is patient and steady when pursuing an objective, when Billy Graham finally loses patience he loses it completely! In addition to having great tenacity and perseverance, Billy has a daring and rebellious side as well:
He enjoys risky, exciting activities and cannot tolerate too much routine, tedium, or inactivity. Unless other factors in his chart suggest staying power and the ability to follow through, Billy Graham may be the person who initiates a new venture but cannot happily participate in the ongoing, sustained effort it requires. "Independent" is Graham's middle name! Billy Graham needs to be a totally free agent, to run his own show. Billy likes to introduce new concepts to people, and then move on.
Billy Graham is apt to receive much publicity and popularity through his professional pursuits, for he has a way of winning the hearts and trust of many people. Billy has an instinct for what the masses of people will respond to emotionally, and this feeling-sense of what other people want enables him to succeed in sales, promotion, and so on. His career could also involve protecting and caring for people, and nurturing them in some capacity.
Billy Graham has a powerful drive for achievement, and a career in athletics, or some other very vigorous, challenging, active work that appeals to him. He is apt to push himself very hard, trying to outdo the competition. When possible, Graham likes to work independently, blazing trails for others to follow. Impatience, recklessness, or a too ego-centered approach to success could be his downfall. (Knowing Billy Graham, however, he is apt to get right back up!)
Deep, compelling drives which Billy Graham does not entirely understand are apt to be the source of his rather extraordinary ambitions. He may find that a drive for dominance, power, and control arises out of the rather problematic and intense relationships Billy had with one or both of his parents. If Billy Graham is willing to delve deeply into his own fears and inner life, clearing away much of the conditioning of his earliest years, he will indeed discover tremendous inner resources which can be used to fuel his rise in the world.
He enjoys life, is original and likes to be admired. Billy Graham loves to go out and is always looking for new social contacts and relationships. It does not take Graham long to like someone and he is likely to have many adventurous love affairs.
