Doris Day
motivation

Although she is outwardly polite, modest and circumspect (as described on the previous page), Doris Day actually has a lot of courage and drive, as discussed below. She may feel like Clark Kent at times! Underneath her quiet, unassuming appearance lies a much more dynamic individual.

She is a person who thrives on challenge, and she often feels that she must battle her way through life, relying on no one and nothing but her own strength, intelligence and courage. Doris Day believes in being totally honest, true to herself and her own vision and convictions, even if it means standing alone. Honesty, integrity, personal honor and authenticity are Day's gods, and she has no sympathy for weakness of character in others.

Doris Day craves the freedom to do things in her own way, and she works very well independently. Cooperating with others or carrying out another's will is not her style. Doris likes to be the chief - or to go it alone.

Doris Day loves action and if others are settling down into a nice, comfortable little rut, then she is always ready to stir things up, do something new, make changes and introduce some fresh blood. Routine and sameness are tantamount to death for her. She is not afraid of trying something that has never been done before, and even though she may sometimes be perceived as a fool, Doris Day also discovers, invents and initiates things that others will later emulate. Taking risks and following her own star are the breath of life for Day, and she wilts (or gets very frustrated and angry) if she cannot do this.

She is spontaneous, impulsive, direct, enthusiastic and assertive. Doris Day believes in the power of positive thinking and positive action, and she perceives herself as a strong, even invincible, person. Doris Day hates being ill or in a position of dependency. Accepting her own human limitations and emotional needs is often difficult for her.

She is basically aggressive in her attitudes and less adept at relating to others, picking up on subtle messages and nuances, listening, nurturing and harmonizing. She is often so fired up about her own projects or goals that she inadvertently runs over or ignores other people's feelings and interests. Being receptive and appreciative of others' contributions, ideas and feelings would be highly instrumental in improving Day's relationships. Her impatience to get on with things causes Doris Day to be rather insensitive, thereby alienating others unnecessarily. She also frequently tries to accomplish her goals through anger or temper tantrums. Doris Day would gain much by learning to slow down, relax and sometimes just let things be, however her energetic, restless nature rarely allows Doris Day to do so.

Doris Day invests a tremendous amount of her creative energy into her relationships with others, particularly her marriage or other close partnerships. Doris feels that she needs others in order to be all that she can be, and she is disinclined to solitary activities and endeavors.

Working with people on a one-to-one basis to bring about mutual understanding, harmony, and satisfaction is an area in which Doris Day can really excel. Counseling or negotiating are talents of hers.

Doris Day aims high, dreams big, and has a tremendous sense of what she is capable of achieving. Overconfidence, grandiosity, lack of humility and/or extreme discontent in modest circumstances may be her faults. Generally, however, Day's great expectations and enterprising spirit lead to success. Business, especially when there is an element of risk and speculation involved, is ideally suited to Doris.

She is imaginative and sensitive to anything colorful, beautiful or magical. She is attracted to artistic and creative pursuits, music and mysticism. Her spiritual values color Doris' whole perspective and approach to life. She is idealistic and perhaps impractical.
