Ridley Scott
motivation

Ridley Scott's appearance and the way he comes across to others (as described on the previous page) are very congruent with his true nature (described below). He is very idealistic, and a great lover of space and freedom.

He is a gambler and an adventurer at heart, one who loves to take risks, to discover and explore new worlds, and to travel the untried path rather than the safe, reliable one. He is independent, freedom loving, and often very restless. He needs a lifestyle that provides opportunities for travel, movement, change, and meeting new people. A steady routine, which offers much in the way of security but little in the way of space and freedom, is odious to him.

To Ridley Scott, life is a journey and an adventure that is endlessly interesting and rich with possibilities, and it may be difficult for him to decide where to focus his attention and efforts. Ridley Scott probably traveled around and experimented with many different paths before he settled on a particular career. Or he may go from one project to the next, for once the challenge and vital interest is gone, he is very quick to move on. Commitment, discipline, focus and concentration are not his strong points. Scott can be irresponsible and disinclined to take on the burdens and limitations of adult life.

An incurable optimist, he has big dreams, aspirations and hopes for the future and is usually engaged in pursuing a far-off goal. Ridley Scott has a great deal of faith and trust in life and failures do not crush his spirit. Scott always bounces back from disappointments, often with another bright dream or scheme. Ridley Scott has a sporting, playful attitude toward life and he is philosophical about his mistakes. Ridley has the ability to sense future trends, to see the big picture, and he likes to theorize and speculate. However, he gets annoyed with all the details and practical requirements required to implement his theories.

Scott expresses himself in a very open, direct and straightforward manner and is often blunt and tactless as well. Because he does not take himself too seriously, he may not realize how deeply his candid statements can wound more sensitive souls. In fact, though he may not realize it, Ridley's insensitivity and lack of understanding regarding others' feelings is probably one of his worst faults.

Ridley Scott enjoys being in close relationships but also needs freedom and he does not do well with a possessive, clinging, or emotionally demanding partner. He is quite generous, and heartily dislikes pettiness in others. Someone who shares his ideals, his sense of fun and his zest for life would be the right companion for Scott.

Scott is very attracted to world travel, foreign cultures and studies that expand his intellectual horizons and broaden his understanding of the world.

Ridley Scott is philosophically inclined and concerned with seeking answers to the big questions of life or getting an overall picture of any situation. Abstract concepts and/or plans for the future occupy his mind much of the time.

At times Ridley Scott may feel an uncontrollable urge to radically alter his direction in life or to act in ways that seem eccentric or at least highly atypical. When his life becomes too predictable, Ridley may do something to upset the status quo, sometimes without realizing why or how he is doing it. These impulses may seem at odds with his conscious intent and desires for himself, and can be unsettling. However, there is a streak of unconventionality and creative genius in Ridley Scott that needs to be expressed now and then.

Scott always seems to find the right words to verbalize his feelings, especially in regard to love and friendship. Ridley Scott also has a keen sense of beauty and he probably appreciates art, music or poetry.

Maintaining relationships with friends and associates is very important to Ridley Scott and he keeps in touch with them through his shared interests. His friends are likely to be very supportive to Scott in everything he does.
