Rosalynn Carter
motivation

Although Rosalynn Carter appears to be modest and shy (as described on the previous page), at heart she has a strong need to shine and be the center of attention. She is very self-conscious and self-critical however, and she often shies away from the limelight. Her dilemma lies in the fact that she wants to take center stage, but doubts her abilities. Rosalynn Carter needs to avoid being overly critical of herself and to practice hard at whatever she does so that she feels fully confident.

Proud and intensely individual, Rosalynn Carter 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". Rosalynn Carter must put her personal stamp on whatever she does, and direct her own course in life. Rosalynn Carter needs to have a place where she can shine, express herself creatively, and be the one in charge.

For Rosalynn Carter, 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. Rosalynn 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.

Rosalynn Carter 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, Rosalynn Carter likes to be the strong one in her relationships and she really does not share the leading role very easily. Ideally, Rosalynn needs to find a person who is as strong-willed as she is, but who will not try to dominate or compete with her.

Carter'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.

Rosalynn Carter tends to get involved in the helping professions or in activities where her efforts are hidden, behind the scenes, unacknowledged, or unknown to the public. Asserting herself or getting up in front of an audience may be exceedingly uncomfortable for Carter.

Sensitive and imaginative, she is attracted to artistic and creative pursuits and to mysticism. Rosalynn Carter is impressionable and receptive, and often has experiences that are unusual and unexplainable by the rational mind. Rosalynn has an abundance of dreams, visions and longings, but does not always have the concentrated will and stamina to make them materialize. Gentle, idealistic and peace loving, Rosalynn often seeks to avoid the harsh realities of life. Rosalynn has an ethereal quality about her.
