Justin Kirk
motivation

Though Justin Kirk cares very much about his dignity and the way he is perceived by others (as described on the previous page), he has a very mischievous, playful side that pokes fun of anyone who takes himself too seriously (including himself!). Also, though his great loyalty was highlighted in the previous chapter, fortunately he is also flexible and playful, so he does not allow his commitments to become too burdensome.

Justin Kirk 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. Kirk grasps ideas quickly and once his initial curiosity has been satisfied, he is ready to move on. Justin Kirk craves frequent change and variety, as well as new situations and people.

It may be hard for Justin Kirk 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 Justin 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 Kirk.

Justin Kirk 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 Justin had to choose between a good book or movie and a good lunch, he would very likely choose the former. Justin Kirk 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.

Justin Kirk 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 Justin Kirk 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. Justin 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.

His career, reputation and public image are very important to Kirk. Justin Kirk has a strong desire to be influential or make his mark on the world. He is not satisfied with the personal sphere alone; his ambitions include making a major contribution and receiving broad recognition for his unique effort and gifts. Justin Kirk may undervalue the personal or inner facet of life.

Justin Kirk 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. Justin Kirk has a clear mind, a love of learning and new experiences, and he needs constant mental stimulation and activity.

Highly competitive and easily provoked, Justin Kirk needs challenges and opponents to pit himself against. Justin thrives on contest and rivalry. At times his vigorous, combative way of achieving the things he wants antagonizes other people. If Justin Kirk uses force too often, others will turn against him and oppose him at every turn.
