John Bonham
motivation

Although John Bonham has a sensible, realistic outlook on life and is able to dedicate himself wholeheartedly to his interests (as described on the previous page), he is also very adaptable and flexible. John Bonham appears more conservative and conventional than he is. Based on Bonham's appearance, others may not realize that he is familiar with a wide range of life styles and has varied tastes. John Bonham is able to put ideas into action and is likely to be successful at any field that requires good communication skills and a lucid presentation of ideas.

John Bonham is, in many ways, an eternal child. His mind is bright, alert, curious, flexible, playful and always eager for new experiences - and his attention span is often quite brief. Bonham grasps ideas quickly and once his initial curiosity has been satisfied, he is ready to move on. John Bonham craves frequent change and variety, as well as new situations and people.

It may be hard for John Bonham to decide just where his talents and true vocation lie, for he has a multitude of interests and is loathe limiting himself by concentrating on just one. He is easily distracted by all of the other fascinating possibilities. His curiosity and restlessness propel John toward many different experiences in life, and he is willing to taste or try anything once. Doing the same thing over and over again, even if it is something he does well, is tantamount to drudgery for Bonham.

John Bonham lives in his head a great deal - reading, observing, thinking, spinning ideas around - and he needs mental stimulation every bit as much as he needs food and drink. In fact, if John had to choose between a good book or movie and a good lunch, he would very likely choose the former. John Bonham has a creative mind and he often lives by his wits.

He is also a very social creature, with a strong need to communicate and interact with people. He enjoys using and playing with words and has a real flair for getting his ideas across in a clever, interesting, articulate manner. Writing and/or speaking are areas he has talent for.

John Bonham also has a rather lighthearted and mischievous sense of humor, and often does not take anything too seriously. Though he craves emotional involvement, it is hard for John Bonham to achieve it, for he is frequently unwilling to commit himself to anything, to take responsibility or to limit his personal freedom and mobility.

His happiness lies in using his creativity and language skills to communicate something meaningful, teach, inspire, or bring people together. John has an unbiased mind and can usually offer a fresh, clear, uncluttered perspective. His faults are his lack of constancy and persistence, and his tendency to overlook or ignore deep emotional issues and other people's feelings.

John Bonham has a clear sense of his own self and he therefore conveys a strong impression to others of who he is and what he wants. Assertive and self-motivated, Bonham can be a leader - one whom others look to for direction - but he competes and often clash with other strong individuals. John Bonham feels a need to be in control of his own life and he can be too self-involved, too immersed in his own interests, and oblivious to others at times.

John Bonham often feels that he is at cross purposes with himself, for his conscious intentions and desires conflict with his subconscious emotional needs and drives. He is torn in two different directions. John has difficulty satisfying both his need to be an individual and his need for caring relationships and a sense of belonging. Moreover, John sends out mixed messages so people do not always know how to respond to him or what John really wants, thereby creating confusion or conflict in close relationships.

He is direct, energetic, sometimes aggressive and combative. John Bonham often feels that he needs to fight to get what he wants, and he tends to have a "me-first" attitude that angers or irritates others. He is hasty, restless, impatient and sometimes reckless.

Along with his energy and drive, John Bonham has high ideals and an active fantasy life. There is a dreamer and an idealist in Bonham, as well as a doer and a fighter. John wants to win but not at the expense of others, and this may be somewhat of a dilemma for him.

He is imaginative and sensitive to anything colorful, beautiful or magical. He is attracted to artistic and creative pursuits, music and mysticism. His spiritual values color John's whole perspective and approach to life. He is idealistic and perhaps impractical.

John Bonham undergoes deep, transformative changes in his life with relative ease and a minimum of conscious resistance. Because he does not avoid the depths, Bonham has access to a lot of personal power and strength. Without realizing it or seeking it, John is apt to have quite a potent effect on the people he comes into contact with, even superficially. Others sense that John Bonham is a force to be reckoned with.

He is strong-willed, forceful and independent. Bonham knows what he wants, but sometimes may act too impulsively, causing quarrels or disagreement with others. John Bonham tends to judge himself and others quite severely, but he is very sincere, honest and trustworthy.

John Bonham has a strong need for intellectual relationships and associations and he likes to share his intellectual interests with others. This could be in meetings or by joining various clubs and organizations.

He prefers more serious kinds of conversation with his friends and neighbors rather than small talk. Because his communication is clear and concise, John Bonham can impress others by taking control of negotiations or business dealings.
