John McEnroe
motivation

Although John McEnroe comes across in a very gracious, tactful and considerate manner (as described on the previous page), he also holds some very definite points of view. Others may be surprised when they get to know John and recognize his willfulness and strong opinions.

He is a freedom-loving, strong-willed and independent-minded individual, and he insists upon living his own life as he sees fit, even if it means ignoring convention and tradition. In personal relationships, John McEnroe cannot be owned or possessed, and while he is willing to share himself with another, he does not always adjust easily to the emotional give and take of close relationships. Though intellectually open, McEnroe can be enormously stubborn, opinionated and inflexible on a one-to-one level. John has strong convictions and feelings about fairness and equality, and he tries to abide by them; however, his ideals about how people "should" treat one another do not always take into account human weaknesses, differences and needs. John McEnroe probably dislikes sentimentality and traditional gender roles and "games".

He is fair, intelligent, objective and rational and he often let his head rule rather than his heart. John McEnroe seems rather self-sufficient and emotionally detached because he is capable of putting aside his personal feelings and viewing things dispassionately. But once John makes up his mind on an issue, it is difficult to dissuade him, and he can be rather dogmatic.

John McEnroe thinks in broad terms and is concerned with the world beyond his own personal sphere - his town, nation, or even planet. He is likely to become involved in, or show a keen interest in, community endeavors, social organizations and groups of all kinds. He enjoys being part of a group endeavor, and he often assumes the role of organizing, managing or supervising group activities.

Forward-looking and progressive, he harbors great hopes for the future. John McEnroe stays current and up to date, and responds to contemporary cultural trends, both in terms of personal style and ideas. When young, John McEnroe was very influenced by peer pressure and by all the "latest crazes". John has an experimental mind and is attracted to novelty.

His strong points include his concern for human welfare and social betterment, his sense of fairness and democratic spirit, and his vision. His faults are his stubbornness and inflexibility, and a tendency to be very obtuse and insensitive when it comes to personal feelings and human needs.

He is a private person and inclined to withdraw in very public and impersonal social settings. John McEnroe prefers to work at home or in a very personal small business.

McEnroe invests a lot of his creative energy into his home, family relationships, and his inner life.

John McEnroe tends to see things from his perspective only and to be rather subjective. He also enjoys talking and expressing his views but does not always listen as well. John McEnroe has a clear mind, a love of learning and new experiences, and he needs constant mental stimulation and activity.

John has big aspirations and the desire to succeed in life in a grand way. John McEnroe tends to exaggerate, promise more than is feasible and misjudge by being overly optimistic. However, he never gives up on his hopes for the future. McEnroe tends to be restless and discontent with the responsibilities and limitations of life.
