Phil Rudd
approach to life and appearances

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

Ferociously proud and somewhat vain, Phil Rudd likes to be impressive and to be considered special and unique. He is not timid, meek, or self-effacing, and is rarely content with staying in the background or in a subordinate position. He is a natural leader, and does not take orders from others very well. Rudd must have something of his own, something creative - be it a business, a project, a home or whatever - that he can develop and manage according to his own will and vision. Whatever Phil does, he does it in a unique, dramatic, individual way. He likes to put his own personal stamp on it.

Phil Rudd also has a very strong sense of dignity, self-respect, and personal honor and is deeply offended if someone treats him in a humiliating or dishonorable way. Rudd will rarely confront the offender - he is too proud to do so - but he will lose his affection and respect for them. Phil dislikes pettiness and hates to be snubbed or ignored.

Rudd admires others who are strong individuals like himself. When Phil Rudd befriends someone, Rudd is tremendously loyal, sincere, and willing to go to extraordinary lengths to make that person happy. He is very giving and generous, but his gifts are never anonymous - Phil expects recognition and appreciation for them. He also expects the intense loyalty that he offers to his dear ones to be reciprocated. However, Phil Rudd often has trouble developing relationships with people who are as strong as himself, for he does not really cooperate or share the leading role very easily. If he is not in the leading role, he aspires to be and will compete with the person who is.

Phil Rudd has great heart and courage, and people often look to him for strength, encouragement, and affirmation. Phil always puts his best face forward and rarely allows others to see him hurting, disheartened, or vulnerable. Phil Rudd also has a very strong need for love, admiration, appreciation, and praise, although he does not like others to realize just how important it is to him.

His outlook on life tends to be very personal and rather self-centered. His own self-expression, self-actualization and self-realization interest Phil more than anything else. Phil Rudd feels that if he does his best where he is, the rest of the world will take care of itself.

Phil Rudd comes across as contained, and perhaps wary or mistrustful as well. He watches his step, and frequently withdraws if his environment does not feel welcoming and safe. As a result, Rudd may seem much more conservative than he actually is. Phil is wary of committing social blunders and is extremely sensitive to criticism or rejection. As he matures, Phil Rudd's confidence is likely to grow because he will learn to depend more on his own self-assessment..
