approach to life and appearances

The following is a description of Mozart's basic stance toward life, the way others see him, the way Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart comes across, the face he shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - his real motivation, which describes the kind of person he is at heart and where his true priorities lie. Study this page and the next one and compare them - there may be significant differences between the two, in which case "the inner Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Mozart a little better. This page describes the disguise Mozart wears, his role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

Modest, unobtrusive, and often rather quiet or shy, he is a person who is content to stay in the background or to serve as an assistant, in the supporting role rather than in the lead. He is quite humble in his own assessment of himself; he seeks perfection, with a tendency to be overly self-critical. No matter how well he does something, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart always sees the flaws in it and how it could be improved. Often Mozart will simply refuse to attempt something because he feels he cannot meet his own high standards.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart has an eye for detail and he gets upset when something is not done just so, usually something others consider rather inconsequential or trivial. He is hard to please and his relationships with others may suffer because of this. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart also has refined sensitivities and is very discriminating and particular in his choice of foods, clothes, friends, artwork, etc. Order in Mozart's environment is very important to Mozart.

Mozart steps into situations rather cautiously, and not without realistically assessing all of the risks and potential advantages involved. Unless something is a safe bet, he is unlikely to dive into it. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart tends to underestimate his own capacities and to lack confidence and trust in life, which inhibits his spontaneity. Worrying is a bad habit of his. On the other hand, Mozart rarely falls flat on his face and what he does, he does very well.

Others see Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart as a self-sufficient and rather self-contained person. Mozart has a strong sense of propriety. Politeness, good manners, and correct behavior are important to him. His clear, cool, objective and non-emotional attitude is apparent to others first, and though he is really quite helpful and caring, he does not radiate much sympathy and as a result, others may not see the helpful side as readily. Mozart may seem more businesslike and factual as well as more conservative than he really is at heart. He is the person others might go to for technical advice or an unbiased opinion, but not for emotional support.

He is keenly observant, intelligent, and has a great desire for learning and for self-improvement, but he is not especially ambitious and is often satisfied with a rather simple, unglamourous position in life.

Mozart may seem unpredictable and unreliable in the way he behaves towards others - or his personal relationships may seem constantly in flux, so that Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is always a bit off center.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart also comes across as an independent sort, someone who does not wish to be controlled or dictated to.

His attitude toward life is governed by his feelings and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart tends to seek cordial understanding with others. Mozart has the ability to perceive other peoples' spiritual needs, and trusting his judgment, they are likely to come to Mozart for advice.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart has a tendency to live in a world of his own, a world that is likely to be far from reality. Mozart wants to make a big impression, and with his dazzling personality he knows how to put on a brilliant show.

He is likely to acquire a very powerful position and will gain public recognition for his efforts. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart may even achieve a degree of celebrity in his sphere and would make an excellent politician.
