Josh Lucas
approach to life and appearances

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

Modest, unobtrusive, and often rather quiet or shy, he is a person who is content to stay in the background or to serve as an assistant, in the supporting role rather than in the lead. He is quite humble in his own assessment of himself; he seeks perfection, with a tendency to be overly self-critical. No matter how well he does something, Josh Lucas always sees the flaws in it and how it could be improved. Often Lucas will simply refuse to attempt something because he feels he cannot meet his own high standards.

Josh Lucas has an eye for detail and he gets upset when something is not done just so, usually something others consider rather inconsequential or trivial. He is hard to please and his relationships with others may suffer because of this. Josh Lucas also has refined sensitivities and is very discriminating and particular in his choice of foods, clothes, friends, artwork, etc. Order in Lucas' environment is very important to Lucas.

Lucas steps into situations rather cautiously, and not without realistically assessing all of the risks and potential advantages involved. Unless something is a safe bet, he is unlikely to dive into it. Josh Lucas tends to underestimate his own capacities and to lack confidence and trust in life, which inhibits his spontaneity. Worrying is a bad habit of his. On the other hand, Josh rarely falls flat on his face and what he does, he does very well.

Others see Josh Lucas as a self-sufficient and rather self-contained person. Lucas has a strong sense of propriety. Politeness, good manners, and correct behavior are important to him. His clear, cool, objective and non-emotional attitude is apparent to others first, and though he is really quite helpful and caring, he does not radiate much sympathy and as a result, others may not see the helpful side as readily. Josh may seem more businesslike and factual as well as more conservative than he really is at heart. He is the person others might go to for technical advice or an unbiased opinion, but not for emotional support.

He is keenly observant, intelligent, and has a great desire for learning and for self-improvement, but he is not especially ambitious and is often satisfied with a rather simple, unglamourous position in life.

Josh Lucas appears to be sweet to other people, and he knows how to use charm, persuasion, and affection rather than more direct (but possibly disagreeable) methods to get his point across. Being overly concerned with appearances and surface beauty is possible; and if so, Josh Lucas may also seem vain and narcissistic to others.

Josh Lucas has a radiant, winning personality and others see him as a person used to achieving success. Broadminded, Lucas is willing to give others the benefit of the doubt. He is helpful and tolerant as long as his moral and ethical standards are respected.

It could be hard for Josh Lucas to hold his ground and he may be taken advantage of easily. Lucas displays little strength or force to others and may be quick to resign, despite having many longings, hopes, and wishes for the future.

Josh has good organizing ability and he knows how to arrange everything skillfully. Happy in team-work and adept in negotiating, he can lead successful business meetings. Josh Lucas can easily obtain all the information he needs in order to make the best deal.

He is very receptive to the influence of his environment, giving other people a chance to exploit or use him. Josh Lucas has the ability to tune into the events around him, but he also should be careful not to overreact to the intentions of others.
