JoBeth Williams
motivation

Because JoBeth Williams seems to be such a gentle, tolerant, accepting person (as mentioned in the previous chapter), she can startle people with some of her very pointed, bluntly honest statements. Even though she is sensitive and empathetic, she can also be quite tactless at times. Her good will and good intentions, however, usually prevail. With Williams' free-flowing imagination (described earlier) and her great restlessness (discussed below), she is apt to be a wanderer, and perhaps somewhat of an escapist.

She is a gambler and an adventurer at heart, one who loves to take risks, to discover and explore new worlds, and to travel the untried path rather than the safe, reliable one. She is independent, freedom loving, and often very restless. She needs a lifestyle that provides opportunities for travel, movement, change, and meeting new people. A steady routine, which offers much in the way of security but little in the way of space and freedom, is odious to her.

To JoBeth Williams, life is a journey and an adventure that is endlessly interesting and rich with possibilities, and it may be difficult for her to decide where to focus her attention and efforts. JoBeth Williams probably traveled around and experimented with many different paths before she settled on a particular career. Or she may go from one project to the next, for once the challenge and vital interest is gone, she is very quick to move on. Commitment, discipline, focus and concentration are not her strong points. Williams can be irresponsible and disinclined to take on the burdens and limitations of adult life.

An incurable optimist, she has big dreams, aspirations and hopes for the future and is usually engaged in pursuing a far-off goal. JoBeth Williams has a great deal of faith and trust in life and failures do not crush her spirit. Williams always bounces back from disappointments, often with another bright dream or scheme. JoBeth Williams has a sporting, playful attitude toward life and she is philosophical about her mistakes. JoBeth has the ability to sense future trends, to see the big picture, and she likes to theorize and speculate. However, she gets annoyed with all the details and practical requirements required to implement her theories.

Williams expresses herself in a very open, direct and straightforward manner and is often blunt and tactless as well. Because she does not take herself too seriously, she may not realize how deeply her candid statements can wound more sensitive souls. In fact, though she may not realize it, JoBeth's insensitivity and lack of understanding regarding others' feelings is probably one of her worst faults.

JoBeth Williams enjoys being in close relationships but also needs freedom and she does not do well with a possessive, clinging, or emotionally demanding partner. She is quite generous, and heartily dislikes pettiness in others. Someone who shares her ideals, her sense of fun and her zest for life would be the right companion for Williams.

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

JoBeth Williams tends to see things from her perspective only and to be rather subjective. She also enjoys talking and expressing her views but does not always listen as well. JoBeth Williams has a clear mind, a love of learning and new experiences, and she needs constant mental stimulation and activity.

She is very open and receptive to the spiritual, intangible, and subtle realms, and can easily receive or give conscious guidance based on her inner attunement. JoBeth Williams takes many things for granted, such as the existence of an afterlife or the effects of subtle influences like aromatherapy, spiritual healing, etc. These things seem obvious to JoBeth, whereas to many people they are a matter of conjecture or even illusory. JoBeth Williams may not realize she has spiritual gifts because they come so naturally to her.

JoBeth Williams deeply believes in her own power and her ability to survive any change and emerge victorious from any difficulty. JoBeth has tremendous inner resources and strength. Intense, strong willed, and zealous, she pursues her desires and goals with complete dedication and singleness of purpose, and she may be somewhat compulsive and even fanatical at times. JoBeth likes to live intensely and has no respect for people who are weak or avoid confronting life and their own destiny.
