James Righton
motivation

Although James Righton approaches life instinctively and intuitively (as described on the previous page), he also has a very analytical, rational, unemotional side, as discussed below. His conflicting urges may vacillate between living passionately and dangerously, and being conservative and playing it safe.

At heart James Righton is modest and humble and rarely strives to be in the limelight or in a position of power. James Righton has a sharp analytical mind, a keen eye for detail, and prefers to observe, dissect, and study life from a distance. Conscientious and conservative, Righton can be relied upon to be cautious, efficient, and thorough in his work and he takes pride in a job well done. What he may lack in self-confidence James Righton often makes up for in skills - fostering expertise, technical knowledge and competence in a specialized area. He is adept at using his hands to create or fix things, and meticulous attention to detail and careful craftsmanship are his forte. Some would say he is a little too meticulous, for Righton can be extremely critical and petty if everything is not done exactly as he thinks it should be, and he worries about things that other people consider trivial and unimportant. James Righton likes to organize, categorize and arrange everything into a logical system and is often distinctly uncomfortable when something does not fit into a neat category. Disorganization vexes Righton. He probably wishes that he were not such a perfectionist, for besides being a stickler for details, Righton can also be mercilessly self-critical. Whether in his environment or within himself, Righton tends to focus on the flaws, with a desire to improve, refine, and perfect. He is strictly factual, truthful, and scrupulously honest in his self-assessment and often does not give himself enough praise or credit.

He is also highly discriminating and may be especially particular about his diet, hygiene, and health habits. James has high aesthetic standards and refined sensitivities, and is bothered by environmental elements (such as disorder, cigarette smoke, etc.) that others overlook. His tastes are simple and understated, yet refined. He is truly offended by coarseness, bluntness and vulgarity. Righton can sometimes be difficult to live with because of his fastidiousness, sensitivity and idiosyncrasies about food and cleanliness.

Though James Righton seems rather cool and self-contained, he is very helpful by nature and enjoys serving others. He is content to play a supporting role rather than the lead. He is quietly devoted to the ones he cares for.

He is cautious, realistic and practical in his approach to life and disinclined to gamble. James Righton analyzes before he acts. He is sometimes too serious. If Righton allowed himself to play and make mistakes, it would be highly beneficial to his health!

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

James Righton is loving and well loved by others, and has a strong need for relationships that offer kindness, friendship and affection. His artistic and creative powers are also well developed and James does everything in a harmonious, gracious, pleasing manner. Aesthetics are very important to Righton, as are his personal appearance and attractiveness.

James has big aspirations and the desire to succeed in life in a grand way. James Righton tends to exaggerate, promise more than is feasible and misjudge by being overly optimistic. However, he never gives up on his hopes for the future. Righton tends to be restless and discontent with the responsibilities and limitations of life.

While James Righton deeply appreciates beauty and has a great desire for love, he is in no way frivolous or indiscriminate in his affections. Righton can be very frugal and sparing with both money and emotions.

However he also has a more somber side, which keeps Righton's optimism from becoming ungrounded or overblown. James Righton tends to seesaw between his faith, vision and high aspirations, and his caution and realism (or fear!). He cannot and does not rely on good luck or grace alone, and he accepts the need for hard work. His skeptical or "somber" side is described below.

James Righton has a healthy amount of self-control and self-discipline. Righton also radiates a rather responsible, trustworthy, solid feeling about himself which will win him the confidence of others, especially his superiors.

Although he takes himself and his responsibilities seriously, there is also a part of James Righton that rebels against rules and restrictions and the need to contend with outside authority. Righton can feel torn between conforming to the rules or fulfilling his obligations, and breaking free of them. His wilder side will now be described.

Impulsive, restless and spontaneous, his life is apt to be somewhat unstable and full of sudden changes. James Righton is extremely independent and craves excitement, adventure, freedom and discovery. Righton has a rebellious streak and he often feels he is unusual and different from society's mainstream. The unorthodox and the novel appeal to him.

James Righton tends to think and act bravely and has a positive and firm demeanor. James has what it takes to make his own way in life. He may be a bit excitable, but never shy away from a good argument.
