Michael Bennett
motivation

Behind Bennett's rather solid, conservative appearance (as described on the previous page), he really is a go-getter. While Michael Bennett seems rather soft, there is actually a lot of fight and spunk in him. His practical and down-to-earth side may be at odds with the part of Bennett that wants action, exploration, adventure and excitement, but these two facets of his nature can also complement one another. His pioneering and enterprising spirit is liable to get Michael Bennett in trouble several times, but eventually his determination to see a project through will succeed.

He is a person who thrives on challenge, and he often feels that he must battle his way through life, relying on no one and nothing but his own strength, intelligence and courage. Michael Bennett believes in being totally honest, true to himself and his own vision and convictions, even if it means standing alone. Honesty, integrity, personal honor and authenticity are Bennett's gods, and he has no sympathy for weakness of character in others.

Michael Bennett craves the freedom to do things in his own way, and he works very well independently. Cooperating with others or carrying out another's will is not his style. Michael likes to be the chief - or to go it alone.

Michael Bennett loves action and if others are settling down into a nice, comfortable little rut, then he is always ready to stir things up, do something new, make changes and introduce some fresh blood. Routine and sameness are tantamount to death for him. He is not afraid of trying something that has never been done before, and even though he may sometimes be perceived as a fool, Michael Bennett also discovers, invents and initiates things that others will later emulate. Taking risks and following his own star are the breath of life for Bennett, and he wilts (or gets very frustrated and angry) if he cannot do this.

He is spontaneous, impulsive, direct, enthusiastic and assertive. Michael Bennett believes in the power of positive thinking and positive action, and he perceives himself as a strong, even invincible, person. Michael Bennett hates being ill or in a position of dependency. Accepting his own human limitations and emotional needs is often difficult for him.

He is basically aggressive in his attitudes and less adept at relating to others, picking up on subtle messages and nuances, listening, nurturing and harmonizing. He is often so fired up about his own projects or goals that he inadvertently runs over or ignores other people's feelings and interests. Being receptive and appreciative of others' contributions, ideas and feelings would be highly instrumental in improving Bennett's relationships. His impatience to get on with things causes Michael Bennett to be rather insensitive, thereby alienating others unnecessarily. He also frequently tries to accomplish his goals through anger or temper tantrums. Michael Bennett would gain much by learning to slow down, relax and sometimes just let things be, however his energetic, restless nature rarely allows Michael Bennett to do so.

Michael Bennett tends to get involved in the helping professions or in activities where his efforts are hidden, behind the scenes, unacknowledged or unknown to the public. Bennett may find it exceedingly uncomfortable to assert himself or get up in front of an audience.

Michael Bennett tends to see things from his perspective only and to be rather subjective. He also enjoys talking and expressing his views but does not always listen as well. Michael Bennett has a clear mind, a love of learning and new experiences, and he needs constant mental stimulation and activity.

Michael has big aspirations and the desire to succeed in life in a grand way. Michael Bennett 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. Bennett tends to be restless and discontent with the responsibilities and limitations of life.
