Ricky Nelson
approach to life and appearances
The following is a description of Ricky's basic stance toward life, the way others see him, the way Ricky Nelson comes across, the face he shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Ricky Nelson - 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 Ricky Nelson" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Ricky a little better. This page describes the disguise Nelson wears, his role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.
Modest, unobtrusive, and often rather quiet or shy, he is a person who is content to stay in the background or to serve as an assistant, in the supporting role rather than in the lead. He is quite humble in his own assessment of himself; he seeks perfection, with a tendency to be overly self-critical. No matter how well he does something, Ricky Nelson always sees the flaws in it and how it could be improved. Often Nelson will simply refuse to attempt something because he feels he cannot meet his own high standards.
Ricky Nelson has an eye for detail and he gets upset when something is not done just so, usually something others consider rather inconsequential or trivial. He is hard to please and his relationships with others may suffer because of this. Ricky Nelson also has refined sensitivities and is very discriminating and particular in his choice of foods, clothes, friends, artwork, etc. Order in Nelson's environment is very important to Nelson.
Nelson steps into situations rather cautiously, and not without realistically assessing all of the risks and potential advantages involved. Unless something is a safe bet, he is unlikely to dive into it. Ricky Nelson tends to underestimate his own capacities and to lack confidence and trust in life, which inhibits his spontaneity. Worrying is a bad habit of his. On the other hand, Ricky rarely falls flat on his face and what he does, he does very well.
Others see Ricky Nelson as a self-sufficient and rather self-contained person. Nelson has a strong sense of propriety. Politeness, good manners, and correct behavior are important to him. His clear, cool, objective and non-emotional attitude is apparent to others first, and though he is really quite helpful and caring, he does not radiate much sympathy and as a result, others may not see the helpful side as readily. Ricky may seem more businesslike and factual as well as more conservative than he really is at heart. He is the person others might go to for technical advice or an unbiased opinion, but not for emotional support.
He is keenly observant, intelligent, and has a great desire for learning and for self-improvement, but he is not especially ambitious and is often satisfied with a rather simple, unglamourous position in life.
His emotional responses, feelings, and prejudices come across to others quite clearly and Ricky Nelson could be seen as a rather moody, inconsistent creature. On the other hand, he is not impersonal or removed, so people are drawn to confide in him. At times Nelson may wish he was not so easy to read.
Bright, alert, quick of tongue and/or of movement, there is youthfulness about Ricky's manner and appearance regardless of his chronological age. Ricky Nelson also always appears busy and active, and somewhat restless. Nelson needs mental stimulation from his environment, or he will rapidly get bored.
Ricky Nelson seems tolerant, broad-minded, and well-educated or as if he has traveled widely. He radiates a certain distinction, even nobility. Nelson is apt to have a significant impact on the people he encounters, without even realizing it - a positive, encouraging one.
To others, Ricky Nelson appears capable, mature, and down to earth. Even when he was young, there was a certain practicality and responsible air about Ricky that inspired people to rely on him. Nelson keeps his cool in most situations.
Ricky Nelson has a sweet, appealing demeanor and seems instinctively to grasp the concept that "one catches more flies with honey than with vinegar". His personal brand of charm is usually quite winning. Ricky coax rather than coerce. However, if he does not get what he wants, Ricky Nelson is likely to resort to insincere flattery, wheedling, whining, or pouting rather than stating directly what he needs, or doing for himself. Nelson seems to need others' approval first.
