Cliff Richard
motivation

His gift of gab (described in the previous chapter), combined with his need for relationships and togetherness (discussed in the following paragraphs), makes Cliff Richard a real "people person". He seems to need an ongoing, incessant dialogue! Indecisiveness can be a real problem for Cliff Richard since he sees many sides to an issue and always solicits the opinions of others before acting.

Harmony and balance are his keynotes. Cliff Richard instinctively understands the need to accommodate other people's interests and desires, and he is always fair and willing to meet others half way. Tactful, diplomatic, and quite socially aware, Cliff does all he can to avoid conflict and discord. His spirit is one of cooperation and compromise, and he often achieves through charm and discretion what would have been impossible to achieve with a direct, forceful approach.

Getting along with and pleasing others may be too important to Richard since he can be too dependent on the approval and opinions of other to make his own decisions. Richard will rarely act without seeking the counsel and feedback of other people. He prefers sharing and doing things with others rather than on his own. Being alone feels very unnatural to Cliff Richard, and he has a strong need for a partner and intimate one-on-one relationships.

Cliff Richard invests a great deal of his energy in personal love relationships and he is very idealistic and romantic about marriage. Cliff Richard seeks a partner who is his equal intellectually, and who is capable of a mental relationship as well as a physical and emotional one. He makes a thoughtful, considerate friend or lover, and he enjoys the traditional symbols of love - courtship, flowers, etc. Richard perceives relationships like an art that requires time, attention and creative effort. Cliff Richard appreciates a partner who is subtle and polished, never coarse or blunt.

Fairness and equality, both in his personal relationships and in the world, are extremely important to him. If Cliff Richard fights about anything, it is often about something he feels is unfair and unbalanced. Balance is very important to Cliff. He believes in moderation in all things and avoids fanaticism and extremism at all costs.

Cliff Richard also has a strong need for beautiful, harmonious surroundings and a natural sense of artistic style and grace, which is reflected in the way Richard dresses and furnishes his home and workspace. Everything must be aesthetically pleasing and appropriate. Working with people as a counselor, advisor, consultant, or negotiator, or in an artistic field such as design or photography would be fulfilling to him.

Cliff Richard has a very dramatic, creative, expressive nature and he loves to perform. Cliff enjoys being the center of attention and he seeks to shine, to excel, and to be outstanding in some unique way. He is very involved in his own creativity and self-expression, and takes great pleasure in developing and using his special talents, whether these are artistic, athletic, or intellectual. Cliff Richard has a strong sense of pride.

He is very receptive and sensitive but has a tendency to over-idealize, making his approach to love relationships, romance or marriage somewhat unrealistic. Cliff Richard also tends to be a bit absent-minded and naive, leaving himself open for being taken, swindled or lied to.
