Cillian Murphy
motivation

Though Cillian Murphy cares very much about his dignity and the way he is perceived by others (as described on the previous page), he has a very mischievous, playful side that pokes fun of anyone who takes himself too seriously (including himself!). Also, though his great loyalty was highlighted in the previous chapter, fortunately he is also flexible and playful, so he does not allow his commitments to become too burdensome.

Cillian Murphy is, in many ways, an eternal child. His mind is bright, alert, curious, flexible, playful and always eager for new experiences - and his attention span is often quite brief. Murphy grasps ideas quickly and once his initial curiosity has been satisfied, he is ready to move on. Cillian Murphy craves frequent change and variety, as well as new situations and people.

It may be hard for Cillian Murphy to decide just where his talents and true vocation lie, for he has a multitude of interests and is loathe limiting himself by concentrating on just one. He is easily distracted by all of the other fascinating possibilities. His curiosity and restlessness propel Cillian toward many different experiences in life, and he is willing to taste or try anything once. Doing the same thing over and over again, even if it is something he does well, is tantamount to drudgery for Murphy.

Cillian Murphy lives in his head a great deal - reading, observing, thinking, spinning ideas around - and he needs mental stimulation every bit as much as he needs food and drink. In fact, if Cillian had to choose between a good book or movie and a good lunch, he would very likely choose the former. Cillian Murphy has a creative mind and he often lives by his wits.

He is also a very social creature, with a strong need to communicate and interact with people. He enjoys using and playing with words and has a real flair for getting his ideas across in a clever, interesting, articulate manner. Writing and/or speaking are areas he has talent for.

Cillian Murphy also has a rather lighthearted and mischievous sense of humor, and often does not take anything too seriously. Though he craves emotional involvement, it is hard for Cillian Murphy to achieve it, for he is frequently unwilling to commit himself to anything, to take responsibility or to limit his personal freedom and mobility.

His happiness lies in using his creativity and language skills to communicate something meaningful, teach, inspire, or bring people together. Cillian has an unbiased mind and can usually offer a fresh, clear, uncluttered perspective. His faults are his lack of constancy and persistence, and his tendency to overlook or ignore deep emotional issues and other people's feelings.

His career, reputation and public image are very important to Murphy. Cillian Murphy 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. Cillian Murphy may undervalue the personal or inner facet of life.

Cillian Murphy is loving and well loved by others, and has a strong need for relationships that offer kindness, friendship and affection. His artistic and creative powers are also well developed and Cillian does everything in a harmonious, gracious, pleasing manner. Aesthetics are very important to Murphy, as are his personal appearance and attractiveness.

Although Cillian Murphy prefers harmony and accord, he also has a confrontational side.

Murphy can be an inspiring leader of a team or group effort. His dynamism and energy evokes the same in others, and he sees healthy competition between people as a plus. Generally, Cillian Murphy enjoys fine health as well.

At times Cillian Murphy may feel an uncontrollable urge to radically alter his direction in life or to act in ways that seem eccentric or at least highly atypical. When his life becomes too predictable, Cillian may do something to upset the status quo, sometimes without realizing why or how he is doing it. These impulses may seem at odds with his conscious intent and desires for himself, and can be unsettling. However, there is a streak of unconventionality and creative genius in Cillian Murphy that needs to be expressed now and then.

Cillian Murphy deeply believes in his own power and his ability to survive any change and emerge victorious from any difficulty. Cillian 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. Cillian likes to live intensely and has no respect for people who are weak or avoid confronting life and their own destiny.
