Jesse McCartney
approach to life and appearances

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

Jesse McCartney appears gentle and soft, and he acts rather reserved with others until he knows them well and feels it is safe to be open with them. Jesse has a strong need for emotional security and a sense of belonging, and is deeply attached to the past: his heritage, roots, family, cherished friends, familiar places, etc. Making radical changes or moves away from what is familiar and safe can be very painful and difficult for him. McCartney tends to cling to people, memories and possessions of personal or sentimental significance. Having a home, a safe haven, is very important to McCartney.

McCartney approaches life emotionally and subjectively and he is sensitive to the emotional atmosphere, the subtle undercurrents of feeling in and around him. Instinctive and non-rational, Jesse McCartney is often unable to give a clear, simple explanation for his actions. Something either feels right, or it does not.

His emotions and personal loyalties tend to color Jesse's thoughts and opinions. He views life from a very personal perspective and often cannot mentally detach himself from his own personal bias and prejudices. He is apt to be concerned primarily with how something affects him and those dear and close to him, rather than with the principle or the broader social implications. For instance, he may be very patriotic and feel that whatever "my country" does is right without really knowing much about the other nation's policies or point of view. Simply put: if it is good for Jesse and his near and dear ones, then it is good. If it is not good for him and his near and dear ones, it is no good.

He is tenaciously loyal, protective, and supportive of those he cares about, and has a very strong nurturing, paternal nature. Jesse McCartney empathizes with others and intuitively senses the feelings and needs of other people. Compassionate and sympathetic, he is easily moved by others' pain, and Jesse McCartney is often the one that others seek out when they need comfort, reassurance, or help.

His moods fluctuate and change frequently and he is sometimes open and sometimes withdrawn emotionally. Jesse McCartney communicates nonverbally and appreciates a person who can pick up subtle cues and hints, rather than having to make everything explicit.

Jesse never forgets either kindness or unkindness shown to him.

Despite the fact that his core self is quite a bit different from the face the world generally sees, Jesse McCartney has a strong desire to be seen and recognized, to be acknowledged, and to have a significant influence on people in his environment. He may do remarkable things in order to be noticed. However, Jesse McCartney often does not get the full recognition he wishes for.

Bright, alert, quick of tongue and/or of movement, there is youthfulness about Jesse's manner and appearance regardless of his chronological age. Jesse McCartney also always appears busy and active, and somewhat restless. McCartney needs mental stimulation from his environment, or he will rapidly get bored.

McCartney may well have been discouraged from freely expressing himself, and an overemphasis on being acceptable, conforming to certain standards and expectations, and generally not getting out of line is apt to inhibit Jesse quite a bit.

He is likely to acquire a very powerful position and will gain public recognition for his efforts. Jesse McCartney may even achieve a degree of celebrity in his sphere and would make an excellent politician.
