Karen Baldwin
drive and ambition

Karen Baldwin seesaws between being too pushy, confrontational and insistent on doing things her way, and being too eager to please, without a clear, definite goal of her own. Karen Baldwin strives for a balance between acting independently and assertively - and working cooperatively and interdependently with others. She may feel frustrated at times that she cannot simply do what HE wants and that she must always accommodate the needs and desires of others. Or she may feel hesitant to act in a positive, assertive manner if she does not have the support and approval of other people. Either way, she is not a loner. Karen Baldwin achieves her goals by collaborating and joining forces with others, by being a team player. She is very concerned with the concept of fairness and becomes quite indignant and vocal if she senses someone is being taken advantage of. Karen Baldwin avoids extremism and favors a balanced, moderate approach to living. She is unlikely to push herself too hard or to become fanatically driven to reach her goals.

She has passionate convictions and will fight for them when challenged. Karen Baldwin is willing to dedicate a great deal of her energy and strength to an important cause, and she will act decisively on her beliefs, rather than simply espousing them.

Sometimes Baldwin gets so involved, and identifies so much, with her ideas that she cannot really be receptive to anyone who opposes her philosophically.

Karen has the patience and the stamina to realize her visions and bring them down to earth, a fine balance between hard work and realism, and a positive, hopeful spirit. Karen Baldwin grows by adhering to systems and plans, and taking one step at a time. Overnight success or instant enlightenment is not what Baldwin aims for. Her patient, well-balanced approach gives Karen Baldwin credibility with many different types of people, and she is likely to acquire an excellent reputation for being able to do big things without overreaching or becoming pretentious.

Karen Baldwin has a powerful drive for achievement and a penchant for athletics or some other very vigorous, challenging career. She is apt to push herself very hard, trying to outdo the competition. When possible, Baldwin likes to work independently, blazing trails for others to follow. Impatience, recklessness, or an overly ego-centered approach to success could be her downfall. (Knowing Karen Baldwin, however, she is likely to get right back on her feet!)

She is inclined to be a bit eccentric, and difficulties in her relationships with her family members or friends may cause Baldwin to feel depressed and frequently alone. Karen may be more drawn to older people.
