Mick Mars
motivation

Although Mick Mars 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 Mars' course is set, he pursues it tenaciously until it is completed, stubbornly resisting any attempts to sway him from his purpose.

Mick Mars 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 Mick Mars 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, Mars can be enormously lazy at times and has a tendency to overindulge in good food and other earthly pleasures. Mick Mars 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. Mick Mars 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 Mars for support. Though he hates upheaval and sudden changes, Mick Mars usually maintains his poise and equanimity. Mick Mars 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".

Mick 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 Mars' tendency to always insist upon realism and undervalue the imaginative, speculative, and fanciful - in other words, Mick Mars 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 Mars. Mick Mars 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. Mick Mars may undervalue the personal or inner facet of life.

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

He is intensely willful, zealous, and fanatical though Mick often hides the intensity of his feelings and his personal motives and desires. Mars is infatuated with power and has an almost compulsive desire for personal recognition and the desire to be "somebody". Mick Mars tends to worship heroes who have powerful personal magnetism and charisma and often seeks to emulate them. Mick Mars both fears, and is intensely fascinated with, death and the hidden, secret, dark side of life.

He is warm-hearted, kind, generous and very popular, especially with the opposite sex. Mars' happy feelings rub off onto others and everyone enjoys being with him. Due to a protective and encouraging upbringing, his relationships with his parents are good.

Mick Mars tends to become excited and upset at the slightest cause, generating tension with others. Mick also could encounter strange experiences or coincidences with others. He may have a feeling of being different than others and he wants to be his own person.
