Helena Christensen approach to life and appearances
The following is a description of Helena's basic stance toward life, the way others see her, the way Helena Christensen comes across, the face she shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Helena Christensen - her real motivation, which describes the kind of person she is at heart and where her 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 Helena Christensen" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Helena a little better. This page describes the disguise Christensen wears, her role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.
She is a natural diplomat, reasonable, tolerant, fair, always willing to listen to varying viewpoints, and prepared to see the other side of an issue. Even if she strongly disagrees with someone, Helena Christensen will try to find points of similarity and agreement rather than emphasizing the differences. She often avoids taking an extreme or one-sided stance on anything. Helena has a strong desire for harmonious and pleasant relationships, and revels in a spirit of cooperation, compromise, friendship, and fairness. Helena Christensen very much wants to be liked and because of her need for approval and acceptance, Christensen is easily influenced by others' opinions, especially those expressed by the young. She so much wants to please that often Helena Christensen will suppress her own intense or unpleasant feelings in order to avoid offending others. Sometimes Christensen's politeness is interpreted as being phony or wishy-washy.
Her need to create harmony extends to her physical environment and personal appearance as well. Helena Christensen appreciates beauty and has a natural sense of balance, symmetry, and proportion. She does everything in good taste, with a sense of style and art. From her home furnishings to her choice of clothing, everything must be aesthetically appealing, not simply functional or utilitarian.
She also feels that relationships are a form of art - one that Christensen is especially interested in and usually quite skilled at, for Helena possesses tact and acute awareness of other people. Marriage is very significant to her and finding the right person to share her life with is extremely important. Being part of a close relationship seems natural to Helena Christensen - she is not an independent loner. Having a partner increases her self-confidence. Helena Christensen does have a tendency, however, to become overly dependent on her partner and perhaps not to develop a clearly defined identity outside of the relationship. Finding the balance between being herself and blending and uniting with another is a challenge for Helena.
Others see Helena Christensen as an agreeable, smooth, harmonious, and "nice" person. Though there may be much more to her, this is the sort of face Christensen shows to the world. She possesses personal charm and an understated, non-combative manner. Her motto could be "one catches more flies with honey than with vinegar" for Helena Christensen usually adopts a friendly, cooperative approach rather than a strong, forceful, I'm-going-to-conquer-the-world attitude.
Assertiveness and confrontation is very much part of Christensen's way of approaching life. Waiting for someone else to make the first move is not Christensen's style. Though Helena Christensen values harmony and pleasantness, she often feels that others are trying to control her or are not trying to cooperate with her. Others feel that Helena demands too much of them. Surprisingly, Helena Christensen is often perceived by others as a trouble maker or instigator, even when Christensen's intention is to help and assist them.
Her life is never a secret to anyone, for Christensen likes to publicize her plans and let people know exactly where she stands. Others are drawn to Helena Christensen because of her ease in conversational ability and people often may seek her advice.
Other people may consider her environment a bit strange and Christensen likes to surround herself with a certain air of mystery. Helena Christensen tends to be very secretive and is likely to exert her power from behind the scenes.
