Shaun Cassidy
drive and ambition

He is a "busy bee" - energetic, restless, and forever on the go. His active mind is always buzzing with ideas and Shaun sometimes finds it difficult to relax, slow down or take the time to reflect and regroup. Shaun Cassidy tends to live on nervous energy. He can accomplish a great deal in short bursts, but projects that require long-term commitment, stamina and steady, persistent effort are not easy for Cassidy. Shaun Cassidy often scatters his energies into so many directions and activities at once that he cannot finish or follow through on all of them. He needs variety, change and intellectual challenges.

Shaun Cassidy has a sharp and eager mind, and he enjoys games and competitions with an intellectual challenge. Shaun likes to match wits with others.

Cassidy often achieves his desires through his verbal skill and his ability to speak out clearly and convincingly for what he wants. His drive and energy are more intellectual than physical. Shaun Cassidy uses his wit, intelligence, communication skills, social sophistication and awareness to achieve his goals.

Quick-witted and sharp-tongued, Shaun Cassidy enjoys arguing, debating, and contesting other people's opinions. He is quite forthright and sometimes tactless. Cassidy can be very convincing about his point of view, but he is prone to a "hard-sell" approach that sometimes backfires. Challenging mental work is an apt venue for Shaun's aggressive intellect.

While Shaun Cassidy enjoys challenging himself to extend his abilities or try new activities, he is apt to bite off more than he can chew. Failures or accidents due to his overestimating his prowess or capacities and being overly eager and poorly prepared may result. Fortunately these disappointments or blunders do not dampen Shaun's spirits or his ambitions permanently; he has a lot of resilience and optimism. Most likely Shaun Cassidy will need to develop his physical coordination and sense of timing in order to practice some of the activities he dreams of.

His competitive drive and lofty ambitions (commented upon earlier) feed on either intense spiritual idealism or a rather inflated, grandiose idea of what Shaun Cassidy can actually accomplish. His energy level is apt to fluctuate from being very high, as noted earlier, to rather low, as mentioned in the following paragraphs.

Shaun Cassidy has a streak of the pacifist or defeatist in him. Learning to assert himself in a strong, clear, forthright manner and developing stamina in the face of obstacles are necessary to counter such tendencies. To accomplish all he is capable of, it would also be very beneficial for Shaun Cassidy to work on building up his physical energy. Shaun needs to get regular exercise, eat healthfully, get plenty of rest (something he may require more than an average amount of), and especially avoid activities and people who dissipate and waste his time.

Shaun Cassidy has a powerful will and when he wants something, he pursues it passionately and relentlessly until he achieves it. He may be so driven by his desire that he loses all objectivity. Shaun Cassidy often becomes compulsive, even obsessed, with doing or achieving something, no matter what the costs or how hard he must work for it. His forcefulness may be veiled or subtle, for often Cassidy does not reveal his real aims and intentions to others until they cross him. Intense power struggles and relationships with a strong dominance/submissiveness theme are likely to erupt. Shaun Cassidy has enormous energy reserves, and is capable of extraordinary effort and great achievement if he uses his energies for constructive purposes.

Conflicts in his early childhood are apt to be played out in Shaun's later professional life. Unresolved rivalry with a parent or sibling may result in antagonism toward superiors or competitors. If Shaun Cassidy can work through some of these past events, he will have even more energy and drive to achieve positive goals.

In some ways Shaun Cassidy may feel that he has little choice about his role in society. He is compelled either by unusual external circumstances or by an inner drive, to bring potentially dark, difficult, or taboo issues into public awareness. Shaun delves into the hidden side of life - things which may have been purposefully concealed or repressed - and sheds light on them. Shaun Cassidy could come into direct conflict with the authorities or powers-that-be as a result. He is apt to have extraordinary ambitions, and could also become overly zealous and fanatical.

His career is likely to involve some aspect of protecting, caring for and nurturing others. Equally important to him are home, family relationships, cherishing the past and carrying on tradition. Shaun Cassidy is likely to be quite popular through his profession or business.

In his professional life, Shaun Cassidy is likely to earn a great deal of recognition and success. Early on in his career, prominent and influential people in his field are apt to notice Shaun and help him along. At some point, he himself is likely to be quite influential - at least in his chosen line of endeavor. Shaun Cassidy is destined for a leadership role.
