Pope Pius XI
motivation

Although Pope Pius XI enjoys conversing and interacting with people (as mentioned in the previous chapter), he also has a self-reliant, independent spirit. Ambrogio Damiano Achille Ratti can go it alone if need be because Pope Pius XI likes to be a free agent. He likes to exchange ideas, but as stated below, he does not always listen.

He is a person who thrives on challenge, and he often feels that he must battle his way through life, relying on no one and nothing but his own strength, intelligence and courage. Pope Pius XI believes in being totally honest, true to himself and his own vision and convictions, even if it means standing alone. Honesty, integrity, personal honor and authenticity are Ambrogio Damiano Achille Ratti's gods, and he has no sympathy for weakness of character in others.

Pope Pius XI craves the freedom to do things in his own way, and he works very well independently. Cooperating with others or carrying out another's will is not his style. Pope Pius XI likes to be the chief - or to go it alone.

Pope Pius XI loves action and if others are settling down into a nice, comfortable little rut, then he is always ready to stir things up, do something new, make changes and introduce some fresh blood. Routine and sameness are tantamount to death for him. He is not afraid of trying something that has never been done before, and even though he may sometimes be perceived as a fool, Pope Pius XI also discovers, invents and initiates things that others will later emulate. Taking risks and following his own star are the breath of life for Ambrogio Damiano Achille Ratti, and he wilts (or gets very frustrated and angry) if he cannot do this.

He is spontaneous, impulsive, direct, enthusiastic and assertive. Pope Pius XI believes in the power of positive thinking and positive action, and he perceives himself as a strong, even invincible, person. Pope Pius XI hates being ill or in a position of dependency. Accepting his own human limitations and emotional needs is often difficult for him.

He is basically aggressive in his attitudes and less adept at relating to others, picking up on subtle messages and nuances, listening, nurturing and harmonizing. He is often so fired up about his own projects or goals that he inadvertently runs over or ignores other people's feelings and interests. Being receptive and appreciative of others' contributions, ideas and feelings would be highly instrumental in improving Ambrogio Damiano Achille Ratti's relationships. His impatience to get on with things causes Pope Pius XI to be rather insensitive, thereby alienating others unnecessarily. He also frequently tries to accomplish his goals through anger or temper tantrums. Pope Pius XI would gain much by learning to slow down, relax and sometimes just let things be, however his energetic, restless nature rarely allows Pope Pius XI to do so.

Leading groups and classes, and being involved in community efforts, social activities, events or movements are areas where Pope Pius XI really shines and expresses his creativity. An awareness of politics or the larger social impact of individual actions is natural to him.

He is often plagued by feelings of personal inadequacy, inhibitions and self-doubt. Pope Pius XI has a cautious, realistic attitude toward life and is highly responsible and disciplined with regard to his obligations and duties. Pope Pius XI tends to work and struggle more than necessary and to take himself too seriously.

Pope Pius XI probably has great intellectual ability and curiosity. Pope Pius XI never seem to run out of ideas and always welcomes the study of new subjects, the more abstract the better. But he also has the basic sense to translate abstract ideas into practical reality.

His vitality is not up to par and his will-power a bit weak, making Pope Pius XI vulnerable to swindle or deceit. His inner discontent and casual attitude could easily lead Ambrogio Damiano Achille Ratti into dubious schemes. Pope Pius XI should refrain from any activity that seems to be subversive.
