Tammy Faye
motivation

Behind Faye's open, enthusiastic, friendly demeanor (described in the previous chapter), she has a rather gentle, receding nature. She is much more sensitive and vulnerable than her outgoing demeanor would suggest.

Moreover, because her outgoing, enthusiastic approach to life is fueled by high idealism and a vivid imagination, Tammy Faye easily becomes enamored of a romantic or idealistic goal or vision without investing sufficient energy into analyzing, planning or working in order to realize her dreams. Too often Faye waits for the blessings of fortune to provide her with the resources needed rather than applying herself to the work that needs to be done. When properly channeled, Tammy's enthusiasm and vision can be an inspiration to others and an endless source of creative ideas that propel Tammy Faye toward very interesting, creative endeavors.

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

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

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

Her gifts may also lie in the realm of the creative, artistic, or musical, for she possesses great sensitivity, inspiration and limitless imagination. Tammy Faye has a strong affinity for beauty and love.

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

The urge to learn and communicate is essential to Tammy Faye, and she expresses herself very well through writing, teaching or sharing ideas and information. Faye is persuasive and fluent with language.

Restless and inquisitive, Tammy enjoys being mobile and taking short trips and excursions in order to see for herself what is going on in the world around her.

Tammy Faye feels that she has the support of her family or others in her environment for her creative efforts and personal goals, which enables her to act with confidence. She is able to satisfy both her need to be an individual and her need for caring relationships and a sense of belonging. She is in harmony with herself and is therefore an effective individual.

Tammy has big aspirations and the desire to succeed in life in a grand way. Tammy Faye tends to exaggerate, promise more than is feasible and misjudge by being overly optimistic. However, she never gives up on her hopes for the future. Faye tends to be restless and discontent with the responsibilities and limitations of life.

With her charm and outgoing personality Tammy Faye has no trouble attracting people and she enjoys pleasant and congenial relationships with them. She may choose social contact with generous or wealthy people and would prefer to live in a beautiful home.
