Lex Barker
motivation

Although Lex Barker is quite proud and likes to show off and impress other people with his accomplishments and appearance (as described on the previous page) - he is really quite practical, solid, and down to earth (as discussed below). Because of this, he is likely to actually earn the right to be admired - that is, to have actually done something to be proud of.

He is a steadfast and patient soul, capable of tremendous devotion, dedication, endurance and constancy. The ability to follow through and stick with things is one of his greatest assets. Once Barker's course is set, he pursues it tenaciously until it is completed, stubbornly resisting any attempts to sway him from his purpose.

Lex Barker has a very practical nature; he wants to see concrete, tangible results for his efforts, and he is not one to concoct wild dreams that are unlikely to come into fruition. Most of his "wild dreams" have to do with material achievements, well-being and security, for he has a great love of the physical world and he wants to experience and enjoy it to the full. Though Lex Barker will work long and persistently, he also has a strong sensual and comfort-loving side, and he wants to enjoy what he has worked for. In fact, Barker can be enormously lazy at times and has a tendency to overindulge in good food and other earthly pleasures. Lex Barker also loves the beauty of the natural world and he probably prefers a serene country setting to an urban life style.

Basically, his needs are simple and he is easy to please. Lex Barker has a strong desire for security, stability and peace, and will rarely make changes unless he is forced to do so. He is not very demanding emotionally, though he does crave a great deal of physical closeness and affection. Because of his faithfulness, emotional steadfastness and gentle strength, others often depend upon Barker for support. Though he hates upheaval and sudden changes, Lex Barker usually maintains his poise and equanimity. Lex Barker also has an innate sense of harmony with nature, allowing things to grow and unfold in their own time and the patience to nurture something into being - be it a garden, a child, or a creative project. He makes an excellent parent, especially if he follows his instincts more often than "the experts".

Lex has three major faults: one is his bullheaded obstinacy. The second is his unwillingness to deviate from his safe, predictable routine. And the third is Barker's tendency to always insist upon realism and undervalue the imaginative, speculative, and fanciful - in other words, Lex Barker lacks the ability to play with ideas and possibilities, and to open his mind to new horizons.

His career, reputation and public image are very important to Barker. Lex Barker 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. Lex Barker may undervalue the personal or inner facet of life.

He is assertive, energetic, active, courageous and vital. Lex Barker has a very strong physical drive that expresses itself as sexuality and passion, a desire to compete with others, and a tendency to fight. Lex Barker has a victorious spirit and the will to win.

While Lex Barker does have a strong drive, he frequently holds himself back. One of his challenges lies in learning to endure frustration and to patiently overcome the obstacles in his life (or his own internal caution and resistance!).

He is often plagued by feelings of personal inadequacy, inhibitions and self-doubt. Lex Barker has a cautious, realistic attitude toward life and is highly responsible and disciplined with regard to his obligations and duties. Lex Barker tends to work and struggle more than necessary and to take himself too seriously.
