Cary Grant
approach to life and appearances
The following is a description of Cary's basic stance toward life, the way others see him, the way Cary Grant comes across, the face he shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Cary Grant - 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 Cary Grant" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Cary a little better. This page describes the disguise Grant 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, Cary Grant 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. Cary has a strong desire for harmonious and pleasant relationships, and revels in a spirit of cooperation, compromise, friendship, and fairness. Cary Grant very much wants to be liked and because of his need for approval and acceptance, Grant is easily influenced by others' opinions, especially those expressed by the young. He so much wants to please that often Cary Grant will suppress his own intense or unpleasant feelings in order to avoid offending others. Sometimes Grant'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. Cary Grant 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 Grant is especially interested in and usually quite skilled at, for Cary 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 Cary Grant - he is not an independent loner. Having a partner increases his self-confidence. Cary Grant 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 Cary.
Others see Cary Grant as an agreeable, smooth, harmonious, and "nice" person. Though there may be much more to him, this is the sort of face Grant 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 Cary Grant usually adopts a friendly, cooperative approach rather than a strong, forceful, I'm-going-to-conquer-the-world attitude.
Despite the fact that his core self is quite a bit different from the face the world generally sees, Cary Grant has a strong desire to be seen and recognized, to be acknowledged, and to have a significant influence on people in his environment. He may do remarkable things in order to be noticed. However, Cary Grant often does not get the full recognition he wishes for.
His emotional responses, feelings, and prejudices come across to others quite clearly and Cary Grant could be seen as a rather moody, inconsistent creature. On the other hand, he is not impersonal or removed, so people are drawn to confide in him. At times Grant may wish he was not so easy to read.
He may come across a bit scattered, nervous, or restless, as if he cannot sit still. Cary Grant seems alert and quick, but sometimes a bit on edge. Cary tends to stay perpetually busy, and would find handiwork of some kind to be soothing.
He is direct, honest, and to the point - some might say excessively so. However, no one has to guess who Cary Grant is or what he wants - he is pretty much up front. Cary radiates a refreshing enthusiasm and vigor when he is at his best. He seems to enjoy competition without taking it terribly seriously.
Cary Grant appears to be unusual, highly independent, and a free spirit. There is a touch of brilliance, of the creative genius, in his manner. He is also restless and easily distracted, tending to fly from one thing to another, which may give the impression that Grant is unreliable.
