Leif Garrett
motivation

While Leif Garrett appears pleasant, even and harmonious (as described on the previous page), inside he is deeply emotional and quite passionate. Despite appearances, he is intense and sometimes one-sided and extreme. His smooth, agreeable manner masks a much more strong-willed character.

Quiet, deep, emotionally complex and intensely private, he is not a person who is easy to get to know and understand. Leif Garrett is extremely sensitive but disinclined to show it, and he only allows a special few into his inner world. Like a wary animal, he is cautious and mistrustful of those he does not know until "he sniffs them out". He is highly instinctive and intuitive. Leif Garrett usually has a strong, immediate gut reaction to people, even though he may be unable to clearly articulate why he feels the way he does. His feelings and perceptions go deeper than words.

Leif Garrett also has a powerful need for deep emotional relationships and he forms very intense love bonds and attachments. He is possessive and often jealous of anyone or anything that he perceives as a threat to his relationship with someone he loves. When Leif Garrett commits himself to someone or something, he is wholeheartedly devoted and expects complete loyalty in return. Leif merges with or "marries" the person he loves at a very deep level and therefore separations are extremely painful for him, and often stormy and nasty. When Garrett has been wounded, he is not inclined to turn the other cheek and will retaliate if at all possible. Leif will most certainly never forget the hurt and he often harbors grievances and resentment for a very long time. Forgiveness does not come easily to him.

Whatever he does, Leif does with passion and fervor, and he often goes to extremes. Garrett can be hot or cold, but never lukewarm about anything. Garrett can also be very narrow-minded: either he is 100% involved in something or it does not exist for him at all. Rarely is Leif Garrett emotionally detached and objective. He definitely has a fanatical streak. He is also immensely strong-willed and his tenacity in pursuing his objectives often borders on obsession. He is filled with fierce pride, courage and emotional strength.

Leif Garrett loves mysteries and is deeply attracted to the hidden, dark, secret side of life. Leif never takes things at face value and is always probing beneath the surface of people and situations to discover what is really going on. Leif Garrett tends to be more of a cynic than an idealist.

Ownership gives Leif Garrett a sense of security, and he has a strong attachment to his possessions. Leif also has a natural instinct or understanding of economics, finance, trade, and appraising the value of merchandise.

The above description of Leif Garrett is so deeply ingrained that he has little objectivity and often little appreciation for other, different ways of approaching life. Leif Garrett tends to be one-sided. There is little ambiguity in his makeup and he generally knows what he wants and what will make him happy.

Sensitive and imaginative, he is attracted to artistic and creative pursuits and to mysticism. Leif Garrett is impressionable and receptive, and often has experiences that are unusual and unexplainable by the rational mind. Leif has an abundance of dreams, visions and longings, but does not always have the concentrated will and stamina to make them materialize. Gentle, idealistic and peace loving, Leif often seeks to avoid the harsh realities of life. Leif has an ethereal quality about him.

His comprehension is exceptional and Leif Garrett reacts to everything very quickly. Garrett shows deep respect for knowledge and feels that he must learn everything there is to know. Studying probably was encouraged early on and Leif Garrett was raised to be successful.

Garrett has a strong will and great determination and is willing to work hard to reach his goals. Leif Garrett often takes on more than his share and labors untiringly, sparing himself no pain in his work. Leif should guard against over-exerting himself physically.
