Jennifer Rubin
motivation

Although Jennifer Rubin appears gentle and sympathetic toward others (as explained in the previous chapter), she is also a "warrior". Rubin sometimes feels torn between these two facets of her character: the sensitive, tenderhearted, home-loving side, and the assertive, competitive, risk-taking side. People who first meet Jennifer Rubin often think that she is a "softy", but later find out that she is strong willed and pursues her goals aggressively.

She is a person who thrives on challenge, and she often feels that she must battle her way through life, relying on no one and nothing but her own strength, intelligence and courage. Jennifer Rubin believes in being totally honest, true to herself and her own vision and convictions, even if it means standing alone. Honesty, integrity, personal honor and authenticity are Rubin's gods, and she has no sympathy for weakness of character in others.

Jennifer Rubin craves the freedom to do things in her own way, and she works very well independently. Cooperating with others or carrying out another's will is not her style. Jennifer likes to be the chief - or to go it alone.

Jennifer Rubin loves action and if others are settling down into a nice, comfortable little rut, then she is always ready to stir things up, do something new, make changes and introduce some fresh blood. Routine and sameness are tantamount to death for her. She is not afraid of trying something that has never been done before, and even though she may sometimes be perceived as a fool, Jennifer Rubin also discovers, invents and initiates things that others will later emulate. Taking risks and following her own star are the breath of life for Rubin, and she wilts (or gets very frustrated and angry) if she cannot do this.

She is spontaneous, impulsive, direct, enthusiastic and assertive. Jennifer Rubin believes in the power of positive thinking and positive action, and she perceives herself as a strong, even invincible, person. Jennifer Rubin hates being ill or in a position of dependency. Accepting her own human limitations and emotional needs is often difficult for her.

She is basically aggressive in her attitudes and less adept at relating to others, picking up on subtle messages and nuances, listening, nurturing and harmonizing. She is often so fired up about her own projects or goals that she inadvertently runs over or ignores other people's feelings and interests. Being receptive and appreciative of others' contributions, ideas and feelings would be highly instrumental in improving Rubin's relationships. Her impatience to get on with things causes Jennifer Rubin to be rather insensitive, thereby alienating others unnecessarily. She also frequently tries to accomplish her goals through anger or temper tantrums. Jennifer Rubin would gain much by learning to slow down, relax and sometimes just let things be, however her energetic, restless nature rarely allows Jennifer Rubin to do so.

Her career, reputation and public image are very important to Rubin. Jennifer Rubin 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. Jennifer Rubin may undervalue the personal or inner facet of life.

Jennifer Rubin has a healthy amount of self-control and self-discipline. Rubin also radiates a rather responsible, trustworthy, solid feeling about herself which will win her the confidence of others, especially her superiors.

While she is realistic and conscientious (or overly conscientious), as described above, Jennifer Rubin also has an otherworldly, dreamy, or mystically-inclined side, as described below.

Jennifer Rubin tends to be very impressionable and psychically open, and as a youngster, she may have been dominated in relationships with more forceful personalities. Afraid of confrontation, Rubin may have become passive, identified herself as a helpless victim, or tried to achieve her desires in underhanded ways.

Jennifer's hypersensitivity to her environment is likely to be a challenge for her in other ways as well. Pollutants, ugliness or dissonance in any form may affect Jennifer Rubin more than most people.

Jennifer has artistic talents and interests and appreciates art in many forms. Jennifer Rubin could become an actor and she has good judgment of the real value of things. Rubin has an affectionate nature with a cheerful disposition and strong feelings of love.
