Robert Conrad
motivation

Robert Conrad is actually a more sensitive, vulnerable and compassionate person than his proud and somewhat vain manner (described in the previous chapter) would suggest. Although he maintains a strong, confident facade, he is actually quite soft, understanding and caring.

At heart he is very gentle, impressionable and receptive - a dreamer. The world of his imagination, feelings, and intuition is as real to Robert Conrad as anything in the outer world, though he may have trouble verbalizing or interpreting his inner experiences in a way others can understand. Mystical, artistic, musical, emotional and imaginative, he has a rich inner life, though Conrad may seem rather unobtrusive and quiet outwardly. Robert Conrad usually keeps to himself.

Robert shows great sensitivity and empathy toward others and often senses things psychically or intuitively which prove to be correct. He is tolerant, forgiving and nonjudgmental, accepting people unconditionally regardless of their flaws, mistakes, or outward appearance. Robert has deep compassion for the suffering of any fellow creature and he often feels the pain of others as if it were his own. Robert Conrad sympathizes with the needy, the disadvantaged and the misfits of society. He is capable of giving selflessly, living a life of devoted and compassionate service to others, as a healer, physician, social worker or minister. However, Conrad tends to give indiscriminately, to let others take advantage of his kindness, and to encourage the weak to remain so by becoming dependent upon him. Robert has little sense of boundaries, or of knowing when to say "no". Moderation and self-discipline are not his strong points.

He is a lover and a peacemaker rather than a fighter, and he tries to avoid open conflict. Conrad will patiently ignore or "tune out" problems and hope they will go away by themselves, rather than confront them directly and Conrad tends to lack the positive, fighting spirit that is sometimes necessary to overcome challenges. He is fluid, open, nonresistant and somewhat passive. Robert Conrad does things in a subtle, often covert, manner.

His gifts may also lie in the realm of the creative, artistic, or musical, for he possesses great sensitivity, inspiration and limitless imagination. Robert Conrad has a strong affinity for beauty and love.

His faults include a tendency to be lazy and negligent, and to wallow in self-pity rather than take strong, definite action to change his life for the better. He also tends to become so detached from his immediate environment that he lives in a disorderly, chaotic sort of hodgepodge, though this probably bothers those around Conrad more than it bothers him.

Robert Conrad craves intense experiences and is attracted to aspects of life that are strange, unfathomable or taboo. Robert may hide his interests or inclinations, except from those who know him very intimately. Robert Conrad is rarely content with himself and his life, and he has an inner urge to continually delve deeper than ever before. Robert is also highly interested in social power and the role that money and economics play in people's lives.

Robert Conrad is extremely sensitive, compassionate and giving, often to his own detriment. His ideals and spiritual values motivate Robert Conrad, and he cannot live for personal gain or materialistic concerns alone. There must be an element of beauty, magic, imagination, inspiration or creativity in what he does. Otherwise Robert Conrad becomes listless and aimless. The arts, theater, music and/or charitable work are ideally suited to Robert.

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

His vitality is very strong and he is likely to be a workaholic. If Robert Conrad is not careful, he may work so hard that he becomes exhausted, leaving himself open to physical breakdown. Robert Conrad also has a strong drive to win and to dominate others.
