David Duchovny
motivation

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

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

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

For David Duchovny, it is true that "the entire world's a stage" and he secretly (or perhaps not so secretly) desires to be the star or hero of the play. David 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. He needs someone to believe in him and his dreams. Though Duchovny appears radiantly self-confident and independent, he is actually very dependent on the affirmation, love and recognition of others. He cannot bear going unnoticed or unappreciated.

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

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

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

David has to overcome considerable hardship in order to fulfill his personal destiny. However, he does have the strength and stamina necessary to do so. Support and helpful guidance from his father or other significant men in his life may well be lacking. In fact, their disapproval of David and their harsh criticism are apt to be two of his greatest handicaps, and at times he may feel quite discouraged and alone. But true self-reliance and a solid sense of his own powers may well be the silver lining to that cloud in his life. David Duchovny needs to learn to follow his own creative impulses and heart's desires, regardless of what his critics or the authorities say.

Although he takes himself and his responsibilities seriously, there is also a part of David Duchovny that rebels against rules and restrictions and the need to contend with outside authority. Duchovny can feel torn between conforming to the rules or fulfilling his obligations, and breaking free of them. His wilder side will now be described.

Innovative, original, unorthodox and unconventional, he identifies with the role of a rebel, reformer or iconoclast. David Duchovny insists upon a great deal of personal freedom and does not easily adapt to others' needs and wishes. David needs a lifestyle that allows him to be spontaneous. He often feels that he is somehow different from other people and outside of society's mainstream.

His deep comprehension and good powers of concentration give David Duchovny the ability to judge matters wisely and prudently. He is a keen observer and also can be a persuasive speaker. David likes to be in control, but needs appreciation and recognition for his efforts.

Appearing successful and attractive to the public is important to him. David Duchovny probably enjoys wearing stylish clothes and modern jewelry. He tends to seek admiration from others and social acceptance is necessary to David's well-being.

He is a bit impulsive and excitable and wants things done quickly. David Duchovny tends to be very impatient with anyone who is slower or less energetic than he is. Duchovny will fight for what he wants but should guard against mishaps or accidents.
