Faye Dunaway
drive and ambition

She is aspiring, enterprising, and forever following some bright and distant star, planning some new venture or investigating new potentials. She is definitely "upwardly mobile" in either a material or spiritual sense. Faye Dunaway aims high and is not content simply with a quiet, secure existence. Faye likes to stretch her limits, to see how far she can go, and to take risks. She is a positive thinker, expects success for herself, and is philosophical about failures. Dunaway is flexible and she bounces back from disappointment rather quickly, usually with another hopeful new idea she wants to try. Her enthusiasm and confidence are contagious and enable Faye Dunaway to enlist the aid and support she needs for her projects. However, Faye Dunaway sometimes promises more than she can actually achieve, because she is overly optimistic or pays insufficient attention to the practicalities involved.

She also tends to get distracted and to have too many things going at once. Although it is very difficult for her, there are times when Faye Dunaway simply must develop commitment, perseverance, and persistence in order to make her dreams and goals a concrete reality. Too often Faye Dunaway falls short of what she could attain because she is unwilling to persist through the difficult or less exciting times.

She also enjoys competition and usually does not take it too seriously. Sports and entrepreneurial endeavors are good ways to channel Faye's energy.

It is not easy for Faye Dunaway to show the world at large her angry or competitive side, but her family sees this side of her more often. Temper tantrums, tumultuous family relationships, or a great deal of competition between Dunaway and one or more of her relations is likely. Faye Dunaway likes to be the one in charge in her home and she puts a lot of energy into making it the way she wants it.

While Faye Dunaway enjoys challenging herself to extend her abilities or try new activities, she is apt to bite off more than she can chew. Failures or accidents due to overestimating her prowess or capacities and being overly eager and poorly prepared, may result. Fortunately these disappointments or blunders do not dampen Faye's spirits or her ambitions permanently; she has a lot of resilience and optimism. Most likely Faye Dunaway will need to develop her physical coordination and sense of timing in order to do some of the activities she dreams of doing.

Although enterprising and forward-looking, Faye Dunaway is also capable of much self-discipline, patience, and effort. She may swing from confidence and trust in the future to pessimism and doubt, when it comes to achieving her aims in life.

Dunaway frequently meets a tremendous amount of resistance whenever she wants to assert herself in a decisive way, or do something just for herself. This resistance comes from within (in the form of self-doubt, fear, or a heavy sense of responsibility to others), as well as from practical and circumstantial limitations. Especially when initiating a project or acting independently, Faye Dunaway may tell herself that she is not really prepared, or that she is not good enough (yet), and she puts a lot of pressure on herself. Despite the obstacles, setbacks, or lack of support she encounters, Faye Dunaway can accomplish a lot in a patient, steady fashion. However, she is apt to aim too low, and not realize how much she is truly capable of.

Faye Dunaway should try to recognize that she does not have to justify her existence or prove her worth by her accomplishments.

Faye Dunaway has a strong sense of mission and she instinctively knows that to achieve anything great, one must eliminate superfluous activities, and give oneself wholly to the goal one wishes to accomplish. Her zeal, enthusiasm, and clarity of purpose enable Faye Dunaway to succeed and to achieve whatever she aims for. Faye Dunaway has a strong will, but she is usually quiet and understated about it.

Conflicts in her early childhood are apt to be played out in Faye's later professional life. Unresolved rivalry with a parent or sibling may result in antagonism toward superiors or competitors. If Faye Dunaway can work through some of these past events, she will have even more energy and drive to achieve positive goals.

Faye has an aptitude for detective or research work, or any field that involves digging beneath the surface for the hidden elements. An interest in psychology, hypnosis, and utilizing subconscious forces or subliminal messages may well be a key factor in her career.

Whatever her choice of profession, Faye Dunaway is apt to feel a sense of inner mission about it and may pursue it with great zeal and intensity.
