Jean Piaget
approach to life and appearances

The following is a description of Jean's basic stance toward life, the way others see him, the way Jean Piaget comes across, the face he shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Jean Piaget - his real motivation, which describes the kind of person he is at heart and where his 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 Jean Piaget" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Jean a little better. This page describes the disguise Piaget wears, his role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

Jean Piaget is always questioning and learning, and he seems young and alive no matter what his chronological age, for his mind is always alert, curious, flexible, and open to new experiences. Jean Piaget has a childlike enthusiasm for anything new and he learns easily, but he also gets bored rather quickly. Piaget can be somewhat of a scatterbrain, for he tends to have so many ideas and irons in the fire that it is hard to keep track of them all. He needs and craves variety, change, mental stimulation, and an active social life.

Articulate, clever, often funny and witty, he is always a refreshing and interesting conversationalist. Jean Piaget enjoys meeting and interacting with a variety of different people. He is friendly, flirtatious, and charming in a playful way, and no matter how badly he may be feeling, Jean never comes across as melancholic or somber. He may seem frivolous to other, more serious souls. Jean Piaget has a sense of humor and a sense of perspective that prevent him from taking himself or life too seriously. In fact, Piaget may seem flippant or unconcerned about matters that others consider very important.

In general, Jean Piaget responds to life mentally and objectively rather than emotionally, and he may not empathize with people very much. Jean does not like to be weighed down with too much responsibility or with others' emotional burdens. Furthermore, if he cannot fully grasp something with his reason and logic, Piaget will often choose to ignore it, including his own and other people's irrational feelings, desires, and needs.

Consistency and reliability are not great virtues of Piaget's and his life is apt to be full of changes and movement due to his restlessness. Jean Piaget becomes nervous and fidgety if things are not moving quickly enough. He is interested in what is current and up-to-date, the newest trends in thought or style.

His gifts are a quick mind, verbal facility, a flair for language, social sophistication and polish, the ability to communicate, converse, and build bridges between people and between ideas. Jean Piaget tends to become an incessant chatterbox or gossip if he does not have work or other activities that utilize his mental, verbal, and social skills.

Jean Piaget seems gentle and receptive and often does not make a clear, strong impression on others. Jean Piaget has an elusive and subtle quality, and people may be nebulous about who he is. He is easily influenced by others and somewhat naive. Jean Piaget has a spiritual, mystical approach to life and he is very idealistic and sometimes impractical.

Jean Piaget can get by in life almost by personality alone. There is a radiant, warm, attractive quality about Jean that others cannot help responding to favorably. Usually he appears confident and clear about who he is, and it is very difficult not to notice him or feel his influence when Piaget is around.

Piaget projects a feeling of broad-mindedness, generosity, and beneficence, a sense that he is someone others should listen to and treat with respect. Because Jean Piaget generally makes such a favorable impression on people, many doors are open to him, and it may seem that he Jean somehow luckier than other people. Mostly this is due to the confidence that Jean Piaget emanates.

He may be seen as the wild card, the unpredictable or kooky one, because occasionally Jean Piaget does surprising things that are either totally out of character or are actually intended to shock people. There is an erratic quality or rebelliousness that comes across at odd moments. It seems to be Jean's role to shake things up a bit and he may not be entirely comfortable with this himself.
