Nelson Eddy approach to life and appearances
The following is a description of Nelson's basic stance toward life, the way others see him, the way Nelson Eddy comes across, the face he shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Nelson Eddy - his real motivation, which describes the kind of person he is at heart and where his 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 Nelson Eddy" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Nelson a little better. This page describes the disguise Eddy wears, his role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.
Forward-looking and progressive, he is a person who supports change, innovation, and human advancement, and Nelson Eddy is often strongly committed to a humanitarian cause or social improvement. He is extremely aware of the interrelations between all people, and is always projecting personal issues unto a greater whole. Eddy sees the political or social ramifications of personal actions, and he wishes to contribute something of value to the world, or at least to his community or group.
The ideals of equality, fairness, human rights, brotherhood, and social justice color Nelson's whole outlook and approach to life. He is truly interested in the good of the whole and not only his own personal well-being.
Sometimes he may overlook or ignore his own and others' personal needs, desires, and feelings, especially if they do not conform to his ideals of how one should feel or act. Though he has little patience for conservative narrow-mindedness, Nelson Eddy himself is sometimes dogmatic about his beliefs and ideologies.
He is attracted to the avant-garde, the latest advances in human thought and development, and he is eclectic and cosmopolitan in his tastes. He may consider himself a "global citizen" rather than claiming a narrow, limited identification based on nationality, race, familial heritage, etc. Nelson Eddy is strongly influenced by his peer group and the flavor of the times in which he grew up, more so than by parental or family influences. He is involved and active in groups, community efforts, as well as cultural and progressive movements.
On a personal level, Nelson Eddy is friendly and expresses a kind of impersonal good will towards others. Eddy probably has many acquaintances but few really close friends, and much of Eddy's relationships with others are based on a sharing of common ideals and principles, rather than on emotional ties. Others see Nelson Eddy as a good friend and a comrade who is objective, fair and rather detached emotionally. Nelson does not often show his emotions, and may be unsure about how to respond to others' emotional expression, for he tends to be very rational.
Nelson Eddy is also very independent and refuses to be possessed by any individual. Nelson Eddy is not comfortable with traditional sexual roles and is inclined to have "liberated" views about marriage, relationships, sharing of child rearing responsibilities, etc. Nelson Eddy needs to have a life outside of the personal, domestic sphere and to be involved with people on a broader scale. The nurturing of family ties, and close, deep, personal relationships may take a back seat to Eddy's work or outside social activities.
There is an air of universal sympathy, gentleness, and nonjudgmental acceptance about Nelson Eddy which draws people in need to him. Because he has a good deal of intuitive insight or psychic perceptiveness, Nelson is able to say or do just the right thing for them. Nelson Eddy needs to beware of fostering dependency in those people, however.
The initial impression Eddy makes on people may be somewhat deceiving, in that the way Nelson thinks and his true opinions are not always readily apparent. Nelson Eddy may try to clothe his ideas and thoughts in terms that tend to mute them rather than clarify them. For instance, he may have a very definite, unambiguous opinion, but state it in such a gentle, tactful manner that it seems that he does not believe it as vigorously as he does. This creates miscommunication or misunderstandings at times. On another level, Nelson Eddy tends to become scattered and nervous when he is out of balance. He needs clarity and order in his environment to be at his finest.
The way Nelson Eddy comes across to others, particularly on first impression, tends to conceal certain important aspects of his. Specifically, what gives Nelson pleasure, how he likes to give and receive affection, and what he seeks in friendship or love relationships are not at all apparent from Eddy's outward demeanor. Nelson Eddy seems to send mixed signals, and this can create a bit of confusion for the people who are interested in getting close to him or knowing him on more than a superficial level.
He is intellectually alive, curious and willing to learn. Intellectually competitive, Nelson Eddy is fond of debating with others and could have some stormy proceedings. Nelson present his position skillfully, defends it ably and finds satisfaction in doing so.
