Melanie B
approach to life and appearances

The following is a description of Melanie B's basic stance toward life, the way others see her, the way Melanie B comes across, the face she shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Melanie B - her real motivation, which describes the kind of person she is at heart and where her true priorities lie. Study this page and the next one and compare them - there may be significant differences between the two, in which case "the inner Melanie B" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Melanie B a little better. This page describes the disguise Melanie Brown wears, her role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

Modest, unobtrusive, and often rather quiet or shy, she is a person who is content to stay in the background or to serve as an assistant, in the supporting role rather than in the lead. She is quite humble in her own assessment of herself; she seeks perfection, with a tendency to be overly self-critical. No matter how well she does something, Melanie B always sees the flaws in it and how it could be improved. Often Melanie Brown will simply refuse to attempt something because she feels she cannot meet her own high standards.

Melanie B has an eye for detail and she gets upset when something is not done just so, usually something others consider rather inconsequential or trivial. She is hard to please and her relationships with others may suffer because of this. Melanie B also has refined sensitivities and is very discriminating and particular in her choice of foods, clothes, friends, artwork, etc. Order in Melanie Brown's environment is very important to Melanie Brown.

Melanie Brown steps into situations rather cautiously, and not without realistically assessing all of the risks and potential advantages involved. Unless something is a safe bet, she is unlikely to dive into it. Melanie B tends to underestimate her own capacities and to lack confidence and trust in life, which inhibits her spontaneity. Worrying is a bad habit of hers. On the other hand, Melanie B rarely falls flat on her face and what she does, she does very well.

Others see Melanie B as a self-sufficient and rather self-contained person. Melanie Brown has a strong sense of propriety. Politeness, good manners, and correct behavior are important to her. Her clear, cool, objective and non-emotional attitude is apparent to others first, and though she is really quite helpful and caring, she does not radiate much sympathy and as a result, others may not see the helpful side as readily. Melanie B may seem more businesslike and factual as well as more conservative than she really is at heart. She is the person others might go to for technical advice or an unbiased opinion, but not for emotional support.

She is keenly observant, intelligent, and has a great desire for learning and for self-improvement, but she is not especially ambitious and is often satisfied with a rather simple, unglamorous position in life.

Despite the fact that her core self is quite a bit different from the face the world generally sees, Melanie B has a strong desire to be seen and recognized, to be acknowledged, and to have a significant influence on people in her environment. She may do remarkable things in order to be noticed. However, Melanie B often does not get the full recognition she wishes for.

Melanie B appears to be unusual, highly independent, and a free spirit. There is a touch of brilliance, of the creative genius, in her manner. She is also restless and easily distracted, tending to fly from one thing to another, which may give the impression that Melanie Brown is unreliable.

Melanie B has strong leadership qualities and finds it natural to take charge of her family environment. She throws herself wholeheartedly into all her affairs, does not like others to make demands on her, but Melanie B will willingly give of her in most situations.

Melanie B seems to float between the worlds and prefers to live in a world of illusion rather than reality. Somewhat insecure and uncertain, she may try to avoid responsibility. Her ideas tend to be a bit strange and Melanie B should guard against pursuing the wrong objectives.
