Lorenzo Lamas
motivation

Lorenzo has two conflicting interests that he tries to resolve. As described in the previous chapter, he loves to nurture and support others, and family relationships are very important to Lamas. However, there is another side to Lorenzo Lamas: at heart he is a very independent person and he needs to participate in community endeavors and be involved with the world at large. Having a meaningful career and being involved in a larger circle of friends and associates is important to him as well. There are many ways to satisfy both of these sides. He may become an advocate for family needs or women's and children's issues in the workplace and in society as a whole. Or he may simply lend a personal, supportive, human touch to the impersonal atmosphere of business or academia. One negative possibility, however, is that he is may become very dogmatic about his own personal concerns and biases, not realizing how many of his social, political and even scientific views are rooted in personal experience rather than objective criteria.

He is a freedom-loving, strong-willed and independent-minded individual, and he insists upon living his own life as he sees fit, even if it means ignoring convention and tradition. In personal relationships, Lorenzo Lamas cannot be owned or possessed, and while he is willing to share himself with another, he does not always adjust easily to the emotional give and take of close relationships. Though intellectually open, Lamas can be enormously stubborn, opinionated and inflexible on a one-to-one level. Lorenzo has strong convictions and feelings about fairness and equality, and he tries to abide by them; however, his ideals about how people "should" treat one another do not always take into account human weaknesses, differences and needs. Lorenzo Lamas probably dislikes sentimentality and traditional gender roles and "games".

He is fair, intelligent, objective and rational and he often let his head rule rather than his heart. Lorenzo Lamas seems rather self-sufficient and emotionally detached because he is capable of putting aside his personal feelings and viewing things dispassionately. But once Lorenzo makes up his mind on an issue, it is difficult to dissuade him, and he can be rather dogmatic.

Lorenzo Lamas thinks in broad terms and is concerned with the world beyond his own personal sphere - his town, nation, or even planet. He is likely to become involved in, or show a keen interest in, community endeavors, social organizations and groups of all kinds. He enjoys being part of a group endeavor, and he often assumes the role of organizing, managing or supervising group activities.

Forward-looking and progressive, he harbors great hopes for the future. Lorenzo Lamas stays current and up to date, and responds to contemporary cultural trends, both in terms of personal style and ideas. When young, Lorenzo Lamas was very influenced by peer pressure and by all the "latest crazes". Lorenzo has an experimental mind and is attracted to novelty.

His strong points include his concern for human welfare and social betterment, his sense of fairness and democratic spirit, and his vision. His faults are his stubbornness and inflexibility, and a tendency to be very obtuse and insensitive when it comes to personal feelings and human needs.

Lorenzo Lamas craves intense experiences and is attracted to aspects of life that are strange, unfathomable or taboo. Lorenzo may hide his interests or inclinations, except from those who know him very intimately. Lorenzo Lamas is rarely content with himself and his life, and he has an inner urge to continually delve deeper than ever before. Lorenzo is also highly interested in social power and the role that money and economics play in people's lives.

Lorenzo has big aspirations and the desire to succeed in life in a grand way. Lorenzo Lamas tends to exaggerate, promise more than is feasible and misjudge by being overly optimistic. However, he never gives up on his hopes for the future. Lamas tends to be restless and discontent with the responsibilities and limitations of life.

Lorenzo is extremely sensitive and imaginative, and he can get lost in his dreams, fantasies and visions. He is attracted to artistic and creative pursuits, as well as to the world of color, beauty, and emotion. Lorenzo Lamas is also drawn to mysticism and he has deep spiritual aspirations and yearnings. Gentle and peace loving, Lamas may lack the will and competitive spirit needed to make his way in the world. He is often impractical and may seek to avoid or escape the harsh realities of life.

He is prone to fanaticism and cannot go halfway in anything he does. His extremism may seem (and actually be) obsessive and somewhat blind. That is, Lorenzo Lamas does not always consciously understand why he feels as driven or intense about a given course of action as he does. There is a strong element of fate or inevitability in Lamas' life. A significant death or loss in his close relationships is likely to profoundly influence Lorenzo Lamas and shape important life decisions and he may consciously seek out intense, life-or-death experiences as well.
