William Rehnquist
motivation

Though Rehnquist may seem breezy, independent and freedom-loving (as mentioned in the previous chapter), actually he is not completely happy without a partner. He enjoys being on the move and exploring new territory - but he wants a traveling companion! Fulfilling relationships that also do not restrict him is Rehnquist's ideal.

Harmony and balance are his keynotes. William Rehnquist instinctively understands the need to accommodate other people's interests and desires, and he is always fair and willing to meet the other person half way. Tactful, diplomatic, and with considerable social awareness, William does all he can to avoid conflict and discord. He expresses a spirit of cooperation and compromise and often achieves through charm and discretion what would have been impossible to achieve by a direct, forceful approach.

Getting along with others and pleasing them may be too much of importance to him, for Rehnquist can be too dependent on others' approval and opinions to make his own decisions. Rehnquist will rarely act without getting the counsel and feedback of other people. He prefers sharing and doing things together rather than on his own. Being alone feels very unnatural to William Rehnquist, and he has a strong need for a partner and intimate one-to-one relationships.

William Rehnquist invests a great deal of his energy in personal love relationships and he is very idealistic and romantic about marriage. William Rehnquist seeks a partner who is his equal intellectually, and who is capable of a mental relationship as well as a physical and emotional one. He makes a thoughtful, considerate friend or lover, and he enjoys the traditional symbols of love - courtship, flowers, etc. Relationships are like an art to Rehnquist, one that requires time, attention, and creative effort. William Rehnquist appreciates a partner who is subtle and polished, never coarse or dull or blunt.

Fairness and equality, both in his personal relationships and in the world, are extremely important to him. If William Rehnquist fights about anything, it is often about something he feels is unfair and unbalanced. Balance is very important to William and he believes in moderation in all things, avoiding fanaticism and extremism of any sort.

William Rehnquist also has a strong need for beautiful, harmonious surroundings and a natural sense of artistic style and grace, which is reflected in the way Rehnquist dresses, furnishes and arranges his home and workspace. Everything must be aesthetically pleasing and appropriate. Either working with people as a counselor, advisor, consultant, or negotiator - or in an artistic field such as design or photography, would be fulfilling to him.

His career, reputation, and public image are very important to Rehnquist. William Rehnquist has a strong desire to be influential or make his mark on the world. The merely personal sphere does not satisfy him; his ambitions include making a major contribution and receiving broad recognition for his unique effort and gifts. William Rehnquist may undervalue the personal or inner side of life.
