Evel Knievel
motivation

Though he may appear breezy and impersonal at times (as mentioned in the previous chapter), the personal, human dimension of life is really very important to him and close to his heart.

Harmony and balance are his keynotes. Evel Knievel instinctively understands the need to accommodate other people's interests and desires, and he is always fair and willing to meet the other person half way. Tactful, diplomatic, and with considerable social awareness, Evel does all he can to avoid conflict and discord. He expresses a spirit of cooperation and compromise and often achieves through charm and discretion what would have been impossible to achieve by a direct, forceful approach.

Getting along with others and pleasing them may be too much of importance to him, for Knievel can be too dependent on others' approval and opinions to make his own decisions. Knievel will rarely act without getting the counsel and feedback of other people. He prefers sharing and doing things together rather than on his own. Being alone feels very unnatural to Evel Knievel, and he has a strong need for a partner and intimate one-to-one relationships.

Evel Knievel invests a great deal of his energy in personal love relationships and he is very idealistic and romantic about marriage. Evel Knievel seeks a partner who is his equal intellectually, and who is capable of a mental relationship as well as a physical and emotional one. He makes a thoughtful, considerate friend or lover, and he enjoys the traditional symbols of love - courtship, flowers, etc. Relationships are like an art to Knievel, one that requires time, attention, and creative effort. Evel Knievel appreciates a partner who is subtle and polished, never coarse or dull or blunt.

Fairness and equality, both in his personal relationships and in the world, are extremely important to him. If Evel Knievel fights about anything, it is often about something he feels is unfair and unbalanced. Balance is very important to Evel and he believes in moderation in all things, avoiding fanaticism and extremism of any sort.

Evel Knievel also has a strong need for beautiful, harmonious surroundings and a natural sense of artistic style and grace, which is reflected in the way Knievel dresses, furnishes and arranges his home and workspace. Everything must be aesthetically pleasing and appropriate. Either working with people as a counselor, advisor, consultant, or negotiator - or in an artistic field such as design or photography, would be fulfilling to him.

Evel Knievel craves intense experiences and is attracted to aspects of life that are strange, unfathomable, or taboo. He may hide his interests or inclinations, except from those who know Evel very intimately. Evel Knievel is rarely content with himself and his life, and he has an inner urge to be continually going farther or deeper than him ever have before. Evel has also a strong interest in social power and the role that money and economics play in people's lives.

Evel Knievel tends to see things from his perspective only and to be rather subjective. He also enjoys talking and expressing his views but he does not always listen as well. Evel Knievel has a clear mind, a love of learning and new experiences, and he needs constant mental stimulation and activity.

Evel has big aspirations but he does not struggle or labor to achieve them. His self-confidence and inner harmony attract success and benefits to him in an almost magical way. His optimism and cheerful generosity also win Knievel many allies and successes in life.
