Orville Wright
motivation

Although Orville Wright comes across as a very private, somewhat wary and enigmatic individual (as described on the previous page), there is another, quite different side to him: a person who really wants to be noticed, known, loved and admired.

Proud and intensely individual, Orville Wright really wants to stand out, to be the very best he can be, and to be recognized and appreciated for his unique contributions. Doing something well and being respected for it is extremely important to him, and he cannot tolerate being relegated to the background, taking orders from others, or being "just one of the team". Orville Wright must put his personal stamp on whatever he does, and direct his own course in life. Orville Wright needs to have a place where he can shine, express himself creatively, and be the one in charge.

Orville has big dreams and the determination, spirit, vitality and enthusiasm to realize them. Orville Wright also has a noble, romantic heart, and a love of the dramatic, colorful, and extravagant.

For Orville Wright, it is true that "the entire world's a stage" and he secretly (or perhaps not so secretly) desires to be the star or hero of the play. Orville wants to be great and to receive the love and applause of an adoring audience, even if the "audience" is just one other special person. He needs someone to believe in him and his dreams. Though Wright appears radiantly self-confident and independent, he is actually very dependent on the affirmation, love and recognition of others. He cannot bear going unnoticed or unappreciated.

Orville Wright also loves wholeheartedly and generously and really knows how to make the person he loves feel special. Orville Wright loves the magic of "being in love" and knows how to keep the romance alive in his relationships. He is also immensely loyal and will defend his loved ones and stand by them to the end - as long as they never offend his pride or betray his trust. However, Orville Wright likes to be the strong one in his relationships and he really does not share the leading role very easily. Ideally, Orville needs to find a person who is as strong-willed as he is, but who will not try to dominate or compete with him.

Wright's strengths are his zest and love for life, his creative power and his warm and generous heart. His primary fault is his tendency to be very egocentric, and so concerned with the impression he is making and with his own creative self-expression that he forgets there is another, larger world that does not revolve around him.

His career, reputation, and public image are very important to Wright. Orville Wright has a strong desire to be influential or make his mark on the world. The merely personal sphere does not satisfy him; his ambitions include making a major contribution and receiving broad recognition for his unique effort and gifts. Orville Wright may undervalue the personal or inner side of life.

He is imaginative and sensitive to anything colorful, beautiful or magical. He is attracted to artistic and creative pursuits, music and mysticism. His spiritual values color Orville's whole perspective and approach to life. He is idealistic and perhaps impractical.

He may be a bit high-strung and over-zealous in the pursuit of his endeavors. Wright always seems to be in a hurry and has the ability to evaluate situations quickly. Orville Wright has a brilliant mind and possibly could invent something.

He is warm-hearted, kind, generous and very popular, especially with the opposite sex. Wright's 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.
