Gabriele Colombo
motivation

In spite of his rather meek comportment (as described on the previous page), he is very stubborn and tenacious, and there is a great deal of quiet willfulness and strength behind his modest demeanor.

He is a steadfast and patient soul, capable of tremendous devotion, dedication, endurance and constancy. The ability to follow through and stick with things is one of his greatest assets. Once Colombo's course is set, he pursues it tenaciously until it is completed, stubbornly resisting any attempts to sway him from his purpose.

Gabriele Colombo has a very practical nature; he wants to see concrete, tangible results for his efforts, and he is not one to concoct wild dreams that are unlikely to come into fruition. Most of his "wild dreams" have to do with material achievements, well-being and security, for he has a great love of the physical world and he wants to experience and enjoy it to the full. Though Gabriele Colombo will work long and persistently, he also has a strong sensual and comfort-loving side, and he wants to enjoy what he has worked for. In fact, Colombo can be enormously lazy at times and has a tendency to overindulge in good food and other earthly pleasures. Gabriele Colombo also loves the beauty of the natural world and he probably prefers a serene country setting to an urban life style.

Basically, his needs are simple and he is easy to please. Gabriele Colombo has a strong desire for security, stability and peace, and will rarely make changes unless he is forced to do so. He is not very demanding emotionally, though he does crave a great deal of physical closeness and affection. Because of his faithfulness, emotional steadfastness and gentle strength, others often depend upon Colombo for support. Though he hates upheaval and sudden changes, Gabriele Colombo usually maintains his poise and equanimity. Gabriele Colombo also has an innate sense of harmony with nature, allowing things to grow and unfold in their own time and the patience to nurture something into being - be it a garden, a child, or a creative project. He makes an excellent parent, especially if he follows his instincts more often than "the experts".

Gabriele has three major faults: one is his bullheaded obstinacy. The second is his unwillingness to deviate from his safe, predictable routine. And the third is Colombo's tendency to always insist upon realism and undervalue the imaginative, speculative, and fanciful - in other words, Gabriele Colombo lacks the ability to play with ideas and possibilities, and to open his mind to new horizons.

Colombo is very attracted to world travel, foreign cultures and studies that expand his intellectual horizons and broaden his understanding of the world.

Gabriele Colombo is philosophically inclined and concerned with seeking answers to the big questions of life or getting an overall picture of any situation. Abstract concepts and/or plans for the future occupy his mind much of the time.
