Ed Powers
approach to life and appearances

The following is a description of Ed's basic stance toward life, the way others see him, the way Ed Powers comes across, the face he shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Ed Powers - his real motivation, which describes the kind of person he is at heart and where his true priorities lie. Study this page and the next one and compare them - there may be significant differences between the two, in which case "the inner Ed Powers" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Ed a little better. This page describes the disguise Powers wears, his role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

High-spirited, enthusiastic, and exuberant, Ed loves adventure, change and exploring new territory. He is not happy with being confined to the same safe, familiar, secure little world all the time. Ed Powers has a strong sense of restlessness and yearning for something greater than anything he has yet experienced, and he often lives in his dreams and visions for the future. Ed Powers tends to believe that the grass is greener somewhere else, and he likes to keep moving, either literally or figuratively. Idealistic and optimistic, he always expects something better ahead. Ed Powers loves to have a goal, something to aim for, but once he achieves it he is on to something else. He is ever on the lookout for new opportunities and he is a gambler, willing to take risks and to break new ground. The possibility of discovering something new is what makes life interesting for him. Ed Powers has great faith in life and he bounces back quickly from disappointment and failure.

Freedom loving and independent, Ed Powers cannot tolerate being caged in for very long, and friends and loved ones must respect his need for freedom of movement. Binding commitments, responsibilities and relationships often weigh heavily upon Ed and he may resist "growing up" and assuming the limitations of adult life.

He is friendly and outgoing and has a great sense of fun and playfulness. He is also philosophically minded and often quite outspoken about his convictions and beliefs. Sometimes Ed Powers gets carried away with his enthusiasm of the moment and he tends to exaggerate. He is often a big talker, a big maker of promises, and he is usually pretty convincing. He does everything in a big way, a generous way. Powers likes to have the best, and he heartily dislikes stinginess, small mindedness or pettiness. His vision is always large. He is able to perceive the big picture, general patterns and principles, and he is well suited to politics, business, higher education or religion.

Others see Ed Powers as a good sport and a good friend, but one who is not always consistent and dependable. He may also be seen as a wise person since he does not get bogged down in pettiness and trivialities, and is able to communicate a broader perspective that opens up new horizons. He is a person who believes in miracles, grace, or just plain good luck, someone who never gives up on life, and he inspires and encourages others to keep looking ahead.

Ed Powers seems tolerant, broad-minded, and well-educated or as if he has traveled widely. He radiates a certain distinction, even nobility. Powers is apt to have a significant impact on the people he encounters, without even realizing it - a positive, encouraging one.

There is a certain intensity, charisma, or compelling attractiveness about Ed Powers that may have little to do with his physical features. It is energy, a subtle sexuality that he emanates. Also, Powers tends to do everything wholeheartedly and with passion, which is quite fascinating to other people. His instincts and psychological perceptions about others are quite incisive.

Ed Powers can get by in life almost by personality alone. There is a radiant, warm, attractive quality about Ed that others cannot help responding to favorably. Usually he appears confident and clear about who he is, and it is very difficult not to notice him or feel his influence when Powers is around.

Ed Powers tends to blend in with and take on the characteristics of the people in his surroundings, and may thus not make a powerful individual statement of his own. He may project an aura of glamour or "make-believe", and enjoy trying on different personalities at different times.
