Isaiah Washington
motivation

Although Isaiah Washington comes across as a very private, somewhat wary and enigmatic individual (as described on the previous page), there is another, quite different side to her: a person who really wants to be noticed, known, loved and admired.

Proud and intensely individual, Isaiah Washington really wants to stand out, to be the very best she can be, and to be recognized and appreciated for her unique contributions. Doing something well and being respected for it is extremely important to her, and she cannot tolerate being relegated to the background, taking orders from others, or being "just one of the team". Isaiah Washington must put her personal stamp on whatever she does, and direct her own course in life. Isaiah Washington needs to have a place where she can shine, express herself creatively, and be the one in charge.

Isaiah has big dreams and the determination, spirit, vitality and enthusiasm to realize them. Isaiah Washington also has a noble, romantic heart, and a love of the dramatic, colorful, and extravagant.

For Isaiah Washington, it is true that "the entire world's a stage" and she secretly (or perhaps not so secretly) desires to be the star or hero of the play. Isaiah wants to be great and to receive the love and applause of an adoring audience, even if the "audience" is just one other special person. She needs someone to believe in her and her dreams. Though Washington appears radiantly self-confident and independent, she is actually very dependent on the affirmation, love and recognition of others. She cannot bear going unnoticed or unappreciated.

Isaiah Washington also loves wholeheartedly and generously and really knows how to make the person she loves feel special. Isaiah Washington loves the magic of "being in love" and knows how to keep the romance alive in her relationships. She is also immensely loyal and will defend her loved ones and stand by them to the end - as long as they never offend her pride or betray her trust. However, Isaiah Washington likes to be the strong one in her relationships and she really does not share the leading role very easily. Ideally, Isaiah needs to find a person who is as strong-willed as she is, but who will not try to dominate or compete with her.

Washington's strengths are her zest and love for life, her creative power and her warm and generous heart. Her primary fault is her tendency to be very egocentric, and so concerned with the impression she is making and with her own creative self-expression that she forgets there is another, larger world that does not revolve around her.

Her career, reputation and public image are very important to Washington. Isaiah Washington has a strong desire to be influential or make her mark on the world. She is not satisfied with the personal sphere alone; her ambitions include making a major contribution and receiving broad recognition for her unique effort and gifts. Isaiah Washington may undervalue the personal or inner facet of life.

Isaiah is extremely sensitive and imaginative, and she can get lost in her dreams, fantasies and visions. She is attracted to artistic and creative pursuits, as well as to the world of color, beauty, and emotion. Isaiah Washington is also drawn to mysticism and she has deep spiritual aspirations and yearnings. Gentle and peace loving, Washington may lack the will and competitive spirit needed to make her way in the world. She is often impractical and may seek to avoid or escape the harsh realities of life.

Isaiah Washington has a strong need for intellectual relationships and associations and she likes to share her intellectual interests with others. This could be in meetings or by joining various clubs and organizations.
