Erika Christensen
motivation

Although Erika Christensen appears quite pleasant, agreeable and prepared to compromise for the sake of harmony (as described on the previous page), she also has a strong need to shine and express her own opinions. Erika has the potential to be a great leader, manager, coach or teacher.

Proud and intensely individual, Erika Christensen really wants to stand out, to be the very best she can be, and to be recognized and appreciated for her unique contributions. Doing something well and being respected for it is extremely important to her, and she cannot tolerate being relegated to the background, taking orders from others, or being "just one of the team". Erika Christensen must put her personal stamp on whatever she does, and direct her own course in life. Erika Christensen needs to have a place where she can shine, express herself creatively, and be the one in charge.

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

For Erika Christensen, it is true that "the entire world's a stage" and she secretly (or perhaps not so secretly) desires to be the star or hero of the play. Erika 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. She needs someone to believe in her and her dreams. Though Christensen appears radiantly self-confident and independent, she is actually very dependent on the affirmation, love and recognition of others. She cannot bear going unnoticed or unappreciated.

Erika Christensen also loves wholeheartedly and generously and really knows how to make the person she loves feel special. Erika Christensen loves the magic of "being in love" and knows how to keep the romance alive in her relationships. She is also immensely loyal and will defend her loved ones and stand by them to the end - as long as they never offend her pride or betray her trust. However, Erika Christensen likes to be the strong one in her relationships and she really does not share the leading role very easily. Ideally, Erika needs to find a person who is as strong-willed as she is, but who will not try to dominate or compete with her.

Christensen's strengths are her zest and love for life, her creative power and her warm and generous heart. Her primary fault is her tendency to be very egocentric, and so concerned with the impression she is making and with her own creative self-expression that she forgets there is another, larger world that does not revolve around her.

Her career, reputation, and public image are very important to Christensen. Erika Christensen has a strong desire to be influential or make her mark on the world. The merely personal sphere does not satisfy her; her ambitions include making a major contribution and receiving broad recognition for her unique effort and gifts. Erika Christensen may undervalue the personal or inner side of life.

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

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 Erika's whole perspective and approach to life. She is idealistic and perhaps impractical.

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

Christensen always seems to find the right words to verbalize her feelings, especially in regard to love and friendship. Erika Christensen also has a keen sense of beauty and she probably appreciates art, music or poetry.
