Ellen Barkin
motivation
Behind Barkin's proud and magnanimous demeanor (as described on the previous page) lays a real go-getter. Others feel that she is rather narcissistic. Ellen Barkin should strive to always be aware of others' needs and concerns to prove this criticism wrong!
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. Ellen Barkin 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 Barkin's gods, and she has no sympathy for weakness of character in others.
Ellen Barkin 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. Ellen likes to be the chief - or to go it alone.
Ellen Barkin 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, Ellen Barkin also discovers, invents and initiates things that others will later emulate. Taking risks and following her own star are the breath of life for Barkin, and she wilts (or gets very frustrated and angry) if she cannot do this.
She is spontaneous, impulsive, direct, enthusiastic and assertive. Ellen Barkin believes in the power of positive thinking and positive action, and she perceives herself as a strong, even invincible, person. Ellen Barkin 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 Barkin's relationships. Her impatience to get on with things causes Ellen Barkin to be rather insensitive, thereby alienating others unnecessarily. She also frequently tries to accomplish her goals through anger or temper tantrums. Ellen Barkin would gain much by learning to slow down, relax and sometimes just let things be, however her energetic, restless nature rarely allows Ellen Barkin to do so.
World travel, foreign cultures, and studies which expand her intellectual horizons and broaden her understanding of the world are very attractive to Barkin.
Ellen Barkin has a philosophical turn of mind and is concerned with seeking answers to the big questions of life or getting the overview of any situation. Abstract concepts and/or plans for the future occupy her mind much of the time.
Her life is apt to be blessed with more than her share of helpful friends, fortuitous relationships, and doors opening to her at just the right time. Because Ellen Barkin is usually willing to share and to give back to others in a generous way, she continues to generate successes in her life no matter how unfortunate prevailing circumstances are. Ellen should beware, however, of becoming an opportunist.
Ellen Barkin is extremely sensitive, compassionate and giving, often to her own detriment. Her ideals and spiritual values motivate Ellen Barkin, and she cannot live for personal gain or materialistic concerns alone. There must be an element of beauty, magic, imagination, inspiration or creativity in what she does. Otherwise Ellen Barkin becomes listless and aimless. The arts, theater, music and/or charitable work are ideally suited to Ellen.
Ellen Barkin deeply believes in her own power and her ability to survive any change and emerge victorious from any difficulty. Ellen has tremendous inner resources and strength. Intense, strong willed, and zealous, she pursues her desires and goals with complete dedication and singleness of purpose, and she may be somewhat compulsive and even fanatical at times. Ellen likes to live intensely and has no respect for people who are weak or avoid confronting life and their own destiny.
Barkin always seems to find the right words to verbalize her feelings, especially in regard to love and friendship. Ellen Barkin also has a keen sense of beauty and she probably appreciates art, music or poetry.
Her vitality is very strong and she is likely to be a workaholic. If Ellen Barkin is not careful, she may work so hard that she becomes exhausted, leaving herself open to physical breakdown. Ellen Barkin also has a strong drive to win and to dominate others.
