Edward Furlong
motivation

Although Edward Furlong 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. Edward has the potential to be a great leader, manager, coach or teacher.

Proud and intensely individual, Edward Furlong 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". Edward Furlong must put his personal stamp on whatever he does, and direct his own course in life. Edward Furlong needs to have a place where he can shine, express himself creatively, and be the one in charge.

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

For Edward Furlong, 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. Edward 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 Furlong 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.

Edward Furlong also loves wholeheartedly and generously and really knows how to make the person he loves feel special. Edward Furlong 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, Edward Furlong likes to be the strong one in his relationships and he really does not share the leading role very easily. Ideally, Edward needs to find a person who is as strong-willed as he is, but who will not try to dominate or compete with him.

Furlong'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 Furlong. Edward Furlong has a strong desire to be influential or make his mark on the world. He is not satisfied with the personal sphere alone; his ambitions include making a major contribution and receiving broad recognition for his unique effort and gifts. Edward Furlong may undervalue the personal or inner facet of life.

Furlong can be an inspiring leader of a team or group effort. His dynamism and energy evokes the same in others, and he sees healthy competition between people as a plus. Generally, Edward Furlong enjoys fine health as well.

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

Along with his energy and drive, Edward Furlong has high ideals and an active fantasy life. There is a dreamer and an idealist in Furlong, as well as a doer and a fighter. Edward wants to win but not at the expense of others, and this may be somewhat of a dilemma for him.

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

Edward Furlong undergoes deep, transformative changes in his life with relative ease and a minimum of conscious resistance. Because he does not avoid the depths, Furlong has access to a lot of personal power and strength. Without realizing it or seeking it, Edward is apt to have quite a potent effect on the people he comes into contact with, even superficially. Others sense that Edward Furlong is a force to be reckoned with.

His vitality is very strong and he is likely to be a workaholic. If Edward Furlong is not careful, he may work so hard that he becomes exhausted, leaving himself open to physical breakdown. Edward Furlong also has a strong drive to win and to dominate others.
