Robyn Astaire
motivation

Behind Astaire's sensible, solid, practical exterior (as described on the previous page) lies a much more flamboyant character, described below.

Proud and intensely individual, Robyn Astaire really wants to stand out, to be the very best she can be, and to be recognized and appreciated for her unique contributions. Doing something well and being respected for it is extremely important to her, and she cannot tolerate being relegated to the background, taking orders from others, or being "just one of the team". Robyn Astaire must put her personal stamp on whatever she does, and direct her own course in life. Robyn Astaire needs to have a place where she can shine, express herself creatively, and be the one in charge.

Robyn has big dreams and the determination, spirit, vitality and enthusiasm to realize them. Robyn Astaire also has a noble, romantic heart, and a love of the dramatic, colorful, and extravagant.

For Robyn Astaire, it is true that "the entire world's a stage" and she secretly (or perhaps not so secretly) desires to be the star or hero of the play. Robyn wants to be great and to receive the love and applause of an adoring audience, even if the "audience" is just one other special person. She needs someone to believe in her and her dreams. Though Astaire appears radiantly self-confident and independent, she is actually very dependent on the affirmation, love and recognition of others. She cannot bear going unnoticed or unappreciated.

Robyn Astaire also loves wholeheartedly and generously and really knows how to make the person she loves feel special. Robyn Astaire loves the magic of "being in love" and knows how to keep the romance alive in her relationships. She is also immensely loyal and will defend her loved ones and stand by them to the end - as long as they never offend her pride or betray her trust. However, Robyn Astaire likes to be the strong one in her relationships and she really does not share the leading role very easily. Ideally, Robyn needs to find a person who is as strong-willed as she is, but who will not try to dominate or compete with her.

Astaire's strengths are her zest and love for life, her creative power and her warm and generous heart. Her primary fault is her tendency to be very egocentric, and so concerned with the impression she is making and with her own creative self-expression that she forgets there is another, larger world that does not revolve around her.

She is a private person and inclined to withdraw in very public and impersonal social settings. Robyn Astaire prefers to work at home or in a very personal small business.

Astaire invests a lot of her creative energy into her home, family relationships, and her inner life.

Astaire has an intrinsic creative and artistic ability and an unusual sense of form. Robyn Astaire also has a deep need for relationships that offer affection and can be quite intense when by inner compulsion she feels drawn to someone. Her relationships tend to be peculiar in some way.

Astaire is capable of extraordinary physical or mental efforts to gain success and achieve something that will bring her recognition and respect. Robyn Astaire has a strong need for authority and power over others and is likely to perform better in a leading position.
