Ilsa Konrads
drive and ambition

Her ego drive is not very dominant and Konrads is not especially ambitious or eager to push her way to the top. She may feel inadequate in situations that call for strong, forceful action. The only instance in which Ilsa Konrads will really fight is when she senses that her loved ones - or something dear to him- are being jeopardized, in which case she is a fierce defender. Ilsa Konrads has a very strong protective side. She acts on impulse and instinct and may lash out at anyone she perceives as threatening to Ilsa's home or family. However, Ilsa Konrads will rarely initiate a confrontation. Her goals also tend to be very personal and centered on family closeness and inner satisfaction rather than worldly achievement.

She is sensitive to stress and does not handle a high-pressured, competitive atmosphere very well. Ilsa Konrads is very touchy, irritable and difficult to live with when there are many demands or stressful situations at work. Her energy level varies and is very dependent on the emotional harmony (or lack thereof) in her home. A supportive partner is very instrumental in helping Konrads to achieve her goals and desires.

Asserting herself and being direct and forceful about what she wants is often very difficult for Ilsa. Though she may have a great deal of energy and drive, Ilsa Konrads lacks confidence or simply the desire to put herself and her interests first. On the positive side, Konrads can be very unselfish, working more for the benefit of others than for herself.

However, Ilsa Konrads denies her own desires and needs too much, and she is likely to secretly become very angry, which will sabotage her finest efforts.

Ordinary life often seems drab and uninteresting to Ilsa and she must have something that stirs her imagination - a vision or ideal or dream to motivate her. Ilsa Konrads has a strong urge to act out her fantasies or to live her dream, and Ilsa Konrads will act where others merely talk or dream. Artistic creation, drama or other areas in which Konrads can express herself imaginatively are excellent for her.

Work that only serves her own narrow personal interests does not satisfy Ilsa Konrads. She may lack the competitive edge, the fighting spirit, the "me first" attitude that is often required for material advancement and success. She also tends to either overestimate or underestimate her own power and abilities.

She is rebellious and confident that she can do her own thing and still be accepted by the world around her. Because she is a freedom-lover, Ilsa Konrads may find it difficult to relate to others and most of her relationships are likely to be very challenging.

Ilsa has the patience and the stamina to realize her visions and bring them down to earth, a fine balance between hard work and realism, and a positive, hopeful spirit. Ilsa Konrads grows by adhering to systems and plans, and taking one step at a time. Overnight success or instant enlightenment is not what Konrads aims for. Her patient, well-balanced approach gives Ilsa Konrads credibility with many different types of people, and she is likely to acquire an excellent reputation for being able to do big things without overreaching or becoming pretentious.

Konrads achieves her objectives and ambitions in life through her personal charm, attractiveness and ability to please others visually and/or emotionally.
