Bob Woodward
motivation

Although he is outwardly polite, modest and circumspect (as described on the previous page), Bob Woodward actually has a lot of courage and drive, as discussed below. He may feel like Clark Kent at times! Underneath his quiet, unassuming appearance lies a much more dynamic individual.

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. Bob Woodward 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 Woodward's gods, and he has no sympathy for weakness of character in others.

Bob Woodward 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. Bob likes to be the chief - or to go it alone.

Bob Woodward 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, Bob Woodward also discovers, invents and initiates things that others will later emulate. Taking risks and following his own star are the breath of life for Woodward, and he wilts (or gets very frustrated and angry) if he cannot do this.

He is spontaneous, impulsive, direct, enthusiastic and assertive. Bob Woodward believes in the power of positive thinking and positive action, and he perceives himself as a strong, even invincible, person. Bob Woodward 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 Woodward's relationships. His impatience to get on with things causes Bob Woodward to be rather insensitive, thereby alienating others unnecessarily. He also frequently tries to accomplish his goals through anger or temper tantrums. Bob Woodward would gain much by learning to slow down, relax and sometimes just let things be, however his energetic, restless nature rarely allows Bob Woodward to do so.

Bob Woodward invests a tremendous amount of his creative energy into his relationships with others, particularly his marriage or other close partnerships. Bob feels that he needs others in order to be all that he can be, and he is disinclined to solitary activities and endeavors.

Working with people on a one-to-one basis to promote mutual understanding, harmony, and satisfaction is an area in which Bob Woodward can really excel. Counseling or negotiating are talents of his.

Bob Woodward feels that he has the support of his family or others in his environment for his creative efforts and personal goals, which enables him to act with confidence. He is able to satisfy both his need to be an individual and his need for caring relationships and a sense of belonging. He is in harmony with himself and is therefore an effective individual.

Bob Woodward has a healthy amount of self-control and self-discipline. Woodward also radiates a rather responsible, trustworthy, solid feeling about himself which will win him the confidence of others, especially his superiors.

Although he takes himself and his responsibilities seriously, there is also a part of Bob Woodward that rebels against rules and restrictions and the need to contend with outside authority. Woodward can feel torn between conforming to the rules or fulfilling his obligations, and breaking free of them. His wilder side will now be described.

He is an original! Bob Woodward radiates a sort of electrical excitement about the things he is interested in, and conveys this to others, but he also gets bored rather quickly. Bob does not mind being a bit unusual or breaking a few rules either.

While he is realistic and conscientious (or overly conscientious), as described above, Bob Woodward also has an otherworldly, dreamy, or mystically-inclined side, as described below.

Bob Woodward is extremely sensitive, compassionate and giving, often to his own detriment. His ideals and spiritual values motivate Bob Woodward, and he cannot live for personal gain or materialistic concerns alone. There must be an element of beauty, magic, imagination, inspiration or creativity in what he does. Otherwise Bob Woodward becomes listless and aimless. The arts, theater, music and/or charitable work are ideally suited to Bob.

Bob Woodward deeply believes in his own power and his ability to survive any change and emerge victorious from any difficulty. Bob has tremendous inner resources and strength. Intense, strong willed, and zealous, he pursues his desires and goals with complete dedication and singleness of purpose, and he may be somewhat compulsive and even fanatical at times. Bob likes to live intensely and has no respect for people who are weak or avoid confronting life and their own destiny.

His emotions are very intense and Bob Woodward is excited quite easily. Love is very important to him and he is constantly seeking emotional fulfillment, but he will not waste time with casual relationships.
