Eric Bana
approach to life and appearances

The following is a description of Eric's basic stance toward life, the way others see him, the way Eric Bana comes across, the face he shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Eric Bana - 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 Eric Bana" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Eric a little better. This page describes the disguise Bana wears, his role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

High-spirited, enthusiastic, and exuberant, Eric 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. Eric Bana 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. Eric Bana 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. Eric Bana 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. Eric Bana has great faith in life and he bounces back quickly from disappointment and failure.

Freedom loving and independent, Eric Bana 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 Eric 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 Eric Bana 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. Bana 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 Eric Bana 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.

Eric Bana appears to be sweet to other people, and he knows how to use charm, persuasion and affection rather than more direct (but possibly disagreeable) methods to get his point across. He may be overly concerned with appearances and superficial beauty, in which case Eric Bana may also seem vain and narcissistic to others.

He is direct, honest, and to the point - some might say excessively so. However, no one has to guess who Eric Bana is or what he wants - he is pretty much up front. Eric radiates a refreshing enthusiasm and vigor when he is at his best. He seems to enjoy competition without taking it terribly seriously.

Eric has an open and cheerful manner and attracts attention because of his good taste in clothing, hairstyle and general appearance. Eric has the ability to create a harmonious environment and relationships and he is happy and confident in the company of others.
