Connie Stevens
motivation

Although Connie Stevens appears quite pleasant, agreeable and prepared to compromise for the sake of harmony (as described on the previous page), she also has a strong need to shine and express her own opinions. Connie has the potential to be a great leader, manager, coach or teacher.

Proud and intensely individual, Connie Stevens really wants to stand out, to be the very best she can be, and to be recognized and appreciated for her unique contributions. Doing something well and being respected for it is extremely important to her, and she cannot tolerate being relegated to the background, taking orders from others, or being "just one of the team". Connie Stevens must put her personal stamp on whatever she does, and direct her own course in life. Connie Stevens needs to have a place where she can shine, express herself creatively, and be the one in charge.

Connie has big dreams and the determination, spirit, vitality and enthusiasm to realize them. Connie Stevens also has a noble, romantic heart, and a love of the dramatic, colorful, and extravagant.

For Connie Stevens, it is true that "the entire world's a stage" and she secretly (or perhaps not so secretly) desires to be the star or hero of the play. Connie wants to be great and to receive the love and applause of an adoring audience, even if the "audience" is just one other special person. She needs someone to believe in her and her dreams. Though Stevens appears radiantly self-confident and independent, she is actually very dependent on the affirmation, love and recognition of others. She cannot bear going unnoticed or unappreciated.

Connie Stevens also loves wholeheartedly and generously and really knows how to make the person she loves feel special. Connie Stevens loves the magic of "being in love" and knows how to keep the romance alive in her relationships. She is also immensely loyal and will defend her loved ones and stand by them to the end - as long as they never offend her pride or betray her trust. However, Connie Stevens likes to be the strong one in her relationships and she really does not share the leading role very easily. Ideally, Connie needs to find a person who is as strong-willed as she is, but who will not try to dominate or compete with her.

Stevens' strengths are her zest and love for life, her creative power and her warm and generous heart. Her primary fault is her tendency to be very egocentric, and so concerned with the impression she is making and with her own creative self-expression that she forgets there is another, larger world that does not revolve around her.

Her career, reputation, and public image are very important to Stevens. Connie Stevens has a strong desire to be influential or make her mark on the world. The merely personal sphere does not satisfy her; her ambitions include making a major contribution and receiving broad recognition for her unique effort and gifts. Connie Stevens may undervalue the personal or inner side of life.

There is an ongoing, subtle conflict within Connie Stevens, between her conscious attitudes and aspirations, and her deeper emotional and subconscious beliefs, needs, and feelings. This creates considerable inner stress and sometimes paralyzing indecision, mostly due to the fact that Connie may be trying to follow a path that is at odds with her subconscious desires. Chronic tightness or tension in her body may well be a signal that Connie Stevens is denying or suppressing the messages from her subconscious or emotional self.

Ideally, Connie Stevens will learn to accept the two quite different aspects of her and to express both of them. If she cannot do this, Stevens is apt to attract many relationships into her life with people who reflect her denied or repressed qualities, and who seem to make her life difficult. (Read also chapter 4 in order to get a better picture of the duality described here.)

She is assertive, energetic, active, courageous and vital. Connie Stevens has a very strong physical drive that expresses itself as sexuality and passion, a desire to compete with others, and a tendency to fight. Connie Stevens has a victorious spirit and the will to win.

While Connie Stevens does have a strong drive, she frequently holds herself back. One of her challenges lies in learning to endure frustration and to patiently overcome the obstacles in her life (or her own internal caution and resistance!).

Realistic and practical, Connie Stevens sets goals for herself that are modest enough for her to actually achieve. She is able to tackle long, difficult projects and see them through, for Stevens possesses self-discipline, concentration and perseverance. Connie Stevens also has a strong sense of responsibility and is very conscientious about fulfilling her obligations. Stevens often does things because she feels it is expected of her.

Although she takes herself and her responsibilities seriously, there is also a part of Connie Stevens that rebels against rules and restrictions and the need to contend with outside authority. Stevens can feel torn between conforming to the rules or fulfilling her obligations, and breaking free of them. Her wilder side will now be described.

Impulsive, restless and spontaneous, her life is apt to be somewhat unstable and full of sudden changes. Connie Stevens is extremely independent and craves excitement, adventure, freedom and discovery. Stevens has a rebellious streak and she often feels she is unusual and different from society's mainstream. The unorthodox and the novel appeal to her.
