Cheryl Ladd
motivation

Although Ladd may seem quite poised, even-tempered, balanced and harmonious (as mentioned in the previous chapter), she is actually rather moody and emotional. Inside, she is much more subjective and biased in her attitudes than her fair-minded, reasonable demeanor may imply.

Cheryl has powerful emotional attachments to the past, her family, her childhood, places she associates with safety and security, and her beginnings. It is very important to Ladd to maintain a connection with her roots and heritage and keep family bonds strong. Loyal, devoted, and sentimental, Ladd tends to cling to whatever is dear to her - be it a person, a familiar place, or a cherished possession.

She is sympathetic, nurturing, supportive and very sensitive to the emotional needs of other people. Cheryl likes to be needed and to care for others, and she often worries about the people she loves. Cheryl Ladd has a very strong need for a sense of belonging and acceptance, and much of her life centers on her home. She is more concerned about people and their feelings than with power, achievement, or position in society. Kindness, consideration and tenderness are more meaningful to Cheryl Ladd than any sort of honor the world can bestow.

She is primarily emotional and her views are often dominated by her feelings and her own personal, subjective experiences, rather than reason, logic or abstract principles. It is difficult for her to judge situations fairly and objectively because her personal sympathies and loyalties usually factor in. Cheryl Ladd takes things very personally and sometimes builds a wall around herself to shield herself from pain and rejection. Cheryl Ladd feels rather shy and vulnerable at heart. She also tends to be moody and experiences frequent mood swings. Cheryl Ladd needs to have a place and time in her life to withdraw, introspect, dream and replenish herself; otherwise Cheryl Ladd becomes cranky and unhappy with those around her.

Cheryl Ladd functions in an instinctive, irrational manner and likes to immerse herself in creative activities where she can express her feelings, imagination and instincts. Ladd often loves to cook, since it can be both creative and a way to nurture and nourish others. Cheryl Ladd also has a great affinity for music, because it evokes and communicates feelings that may be difficult or impossible to put into words.

Her compassion, sensitivity, and imagination are Ladd's strong points. Her faults include an inability to let go of the past and move forward, clannishness and prejudice, and a tendency for self-pity when facing hardship.

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

Cheryl is extremely sensitive and imaginative, and she can get lost in her dreams, fantasies and visions. She is attracted to artistic and creative pursuits, as well as to the world of color, beauty, and emotion. Cheryl Ladd is also drawn to mysticism and she has deep spiritual aspirations and yearnings. Gentle and peace loving, Ladd may lack the will and competitive spirit needed to make her way in the world. She is often impractical and may seek to avoid or escape the harsh realities of life.

Ladd might be called the eternal optimist and has a very peace-loving nature. She seems to be happy and content, generous and popular in social circles. Cheryl Ladd also has a good sense for business and likes to carry out enterprises on a large scale.
