Nancy Poydar
approach to life and appearances

The following is a description of Nancy's basic stance toward life, the way others see her, the way Nancy Poydar comes across, the face she shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Nancy Poydar - 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 Nancy Poydar" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Nancy a little better. This page describes the disguise Poydar wears, her role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

Nancy Poydar appears gentle and soft, and she acts rather reserved with others until she knows them well and feels it is safe to be open with them. Nancy has a strong need for emotional security and a sense of belonging, and is deeply attached to the past: her heritage, roots, family, cherished friends, familiar places, etc. Making radical changes or moves away from what is familiar and safe can be very painful and difficult for her. Poydar tends to cling to people, memories and possessions of personal or sentimental significance. Having a home, a safe haven, is very important to Poydar.

Poydar approaches life emotionally and subjectively and she is sensitive to the emotional atmosphere, the subtle undercurrents of feeling in and around her. Instinctive and non-rational, Nancy Poydar is often unable to give a clear, simple explanation for her actions. Something either feels right, or it does not.

Her emotions and personal loyalties tend to color Nancy's thoughts and opinions. She views life from a very personal perspective and often cannot mentally detach herself from her own personal bias and prejudices. She is apt to be concerned primarily with how something affects her and those dear and close to her, rather than with the principle or the broader social implications. For instance, she may be very patriotic and feel that whatever "my country" does is right without really knowing much about the other nation's policies or point of view. Simply put: if it is good for Nancy and her near and dear ones, then it is good. If it is not good for her and her near and dear ones, it is no good.

She is tenaciously loyal, protective, and supportive of those she cares about, and has a very strong nurturing, paternal nature. Nancy Poydar empathizes with others and intuitively senses the feelings and needs of other people. Compassionate and sympathetic, she is easily moved by others' pain, and Nancy Poydar is often the one that others seek out when they need comfort, reassurance, or help.

Her moods fluctuate and change frequently and she is sometimes open and sometimes withdrawn emotionally. Nancy Poydar communicates nonverbally and appreciates a person who can pick up subtle cues and hints, rather than having to make everything explicit.

Nancy never forgets either kindness or unkindness shown to her.

She is direct, honest, and to the point - some might say excessively so. However, no one has to guess who Nancy Poydar is or what she wants - she is pretty much up front. Nancy radiates a refreshing enthusiasm and vigor when she is at her best. She seems to enjoy competition without taking it terribly seriously.

Nancy Poydar tends to suppress her feelings and may even pretend that she does not have any, therefore appearing rather cold. Nancy feels separated from others and is inclined to isolate herself. Others see Nancy Poydar as a reserved, detached and serious person.

Nancy Poydar tends to be somewhat inhibited and does not want to attract attention to her. She is likely to think that other people are more important than she is and prefers to live in seclusion.
