Vince Gill
motivation

Although Vince Gill appears gentle and sympathetic toward others (as explained in the previous chapter), he is also a "warrior". Gill sometimes feels torn between these two facets of his character: the sensitive, tenderhearted, home-loving side, and the assertive, competitive, risk-taking side. People who first meet Vince Gill often think that he is a "softy", but later find out that he is strong willed and pursues his goals aggressively.

He is a person who thrives on challenge, and he often feels that he must battle his way through life, relying on no one and nothing but his own strength, intelligence and courage. Vince Gill believes in being totally honest, true to himself and his own vision and convictions, even if it means standing alone. Honesty, integrity, personal honor and authenticity are Gill's gods, and he has no sympathy for weakness of character in others.

Vince Gill craves the freedom to do things in his own way, and he works very well independently. Cooperating with others or carrying out another's will is not his style. Vince likes to be the chief - or to go it alone.

Vince Gill loves action and if others are settling down into a nice, comfortable little rut, then he is always ready to stir things up, do something new, make changes and introduce some fresh blood. Routine and sameness are tantamount to death for him. He is not afraid of trying something that has never been done before, and even though he may sometimes be perceived as a fool, Vince Gill also discovers, invents and initiates things that others will later emulate. Taking risks and following his own star are the breath of life for Gill, and he wilts (or gets very frustrated and angry) if he cannot do this.

He is spontaneous, impulsive, direct, enthusiastic and assertive. Vince Gill believes in the power of positive thinking and positive action, and he perceives himself as a strong, even invincible, person. Vince Gill hates being ill or in a position of dependency. Accepting his own human limitations and emotional needs is often difficult for him.

He is basically aggressive in his attitudes and less adept at relating to others, picking up on subtle messages and nuances, listening, nurturing and harmonizing. He is often so fired up about his own projects or goals that he inadvertently runs over or ignores other people's feelings and interests. Being receptive and appreciative of others' contributions, ideas and feelings would be highly instrumental in improving Gill's relationships. His impatience to get on with things causes Vince Gill to be rather insensitive, thereby alienating others unnecessarily. He also frequently tries to accomplish his goals through anger or temper tantrums. Vince Gill would gain much by learning to slow down, relax and sometimes just let things be, however his energetic, restless nature rarely allows Vince Gill to do so.

His career, reputation and public image are very important to Gill. Vince Gill has a strong desire to be influential or make his mark on the world. He is not satisfied with the personal sphere alone; his ambitions include making a major contribution and receiving broad recognition for his unique effort and gifts. Vince Gill may undervalue the personal or inner facet of life.

Vince Gill is loving and well loved by others, and has a strong need for relationships that offer kindness, friendship and affection. His artistic and creative powers are also well developed and Vince does everything in a harmonious, gracious, pleasing manner. Aesthetics are very important to Gill, as are his personal appearance and attractiveness.

Gill occasionally gambles, splurges or overextends himself in ways that may be at odds with his usual way of doing things. Exaggerating his accomplishments or spending too much in order to impress others and build up his own self-esteem can be a problem. However, Vince Gill also has faith and an optimistic side, which enable him to recover from the negative consequences of his excesses, and to learn from them.

Vince Gill has a sense of good fellowship and comradeship and is very much at ease in contact with others. Gill works successfully with others in his community, groups or associations and may get some assistance from some very powerful and influential people.
