Phil Everly
motivation

Everly's quiet, unassuming, rather modest facade (described in the previous chapter) is liable to mask certain far less modest goals and ambitions in life. Materially (or in other ways), he is much more aspiring than he may seem, and reaching the top academically or professionally is really important to him.

Serious, disciplined and quietly ambitious, he is driven to prove himself and to achieve material accomplishments and success. His work, his position in the world, and his contributions to society are very important to Everly. Phil Everly will persevere through enormous hardship and frustration in order to reach a goal he has set for himself, and he often sacrifices much in the area of personal relationships and home life in order to do so.

Phil Everly has a thoughtful, quiet and self-contained disposition and does not readily show his inner feelings and needs. Phil Everly seems to always be in control, capable, efficient and strong. He is often the person in the family or group who is given more responsibility (and more work) than the others. He is highly conscientious and even as a child he possessed great maturity, soberness, and worldly wisdom.

He is basically a pragmatic realist, and though he may have all sorts of dreams, ideals and colorful theories, he feels that the ultimate test of a concept is its practical usefulness. Phil has an innate shrewdness and business sense, and there is a bit of the cynic in him as well.

He is clear-headed, detached and objective, and is not swayed by emotional dramatics. He is often authoritarian - strictly fair, but without mercy. Phil Everly has a great respect for tradition and even if he does not agree with certain laws, he will abide by them or strive to change them, but never flagrantly disregard them. Cautious and conservative, Phil Everly plays by the rules.

He is subtle, understated, quiet, deep, not easy to get to know intimately, and never superficial. He is a modest person and sometimes overly self-critical. Giving himself (and others) permission to feel, play, be spontaneous and silly, and sometimes weak and vulnerable is not easy for Everly.

Everly's strong points are his depth and thoroughness, patience, tenacity and faithfulness. His faults are a tendency to be rigid and inflexible, and too serious.

Phil Everly has a very dramatic, creative, expressive nature and he loves to perform. Phil enjoys being the center of attention and he seeks to shine, to excel, and to be outstanding in some unique way. He is very involved in his own creativity and self-expression, and takes great pleasure in developing and using his special talents be they artistic, athletic or intellectual. Phil Everly has a strong sense of pride.

The above description of Phil Everly is so deeply ingrained that he has little objectivity and often little appreciation for other, different ways of approaching life. Phil Everly tends to be one-sided. There is little ambiguity in his makeup and he generally knows what he wants and what will make him happy.

He is infused with a sense of personal destiny or mission and can be extremely driven, obsessed and fanatical. Learning about power and how to use it effectively is definitely on his agenda. Phil Everly confronts abusive power, tyranny and dominating people who will teach him about power and eventually force Everly to claim his own.

He is inclined to feel uncomfortable or restrained in some way in the presence of others and prefer to be alone. Phil Everly is modest and shy in his approach to others and tends to accept more responsibility than he really needs to.
