Section 1: The inner you, your real motivation
You are, in many ways, an eternal child. Your mind is bright, alert, curious, flexible, playful and always eager for new experiences. All of which means your attention span is often quite brief. You grasp ideas quickly, but once your initial curiosity has been satisfied, you want to go on to something else. You crave frequent change, variety, meeting new situations and people.
It may be hard for you to decide just where your talents and true vocation lie, for you have a multitude of interests and are loathe to limit yourself by concentrating on just one. You are easily distracted by all of the other fascinating possibilities the world has to offer. Your curiosity and restlessness propel you into many different experiences in life, so you’re always willing to try anything once. Doing the same thing over and over again, even if it is something you do well, is real drudgery for you.
You live in your head a great deal - reading, observing, thinking, spinning ideas around - and you need mental stimulation every bit as much as you need food and drink. In fact, if you had to choose between a good book or movie and a good lunch, you would very likely choose the former. You have a creative mind and often live by your wits.
You are also a very social creature, with a strong need to communicate and to interact with people. You enjoy using and playing with words and have a real flair for getting your ideas across in a clever, interesting, articulate manner. Writing or speaking are areas you have talent for.
You also have a rather light and mischievous sense of humour, and rarely take life too seriously. Though you crave emotional involvement, it is hard for you to achieve it, for you are frequently unwilling to commit yourself to anything, to take responsibility, or to limit your personal freedom and mobility.
Your happiness lies in using your creativity and your language skills to communicate something meaningful, to teach, inspire, or bring people together. You have an unbiased mind and can usually offer a fresh, clear, uncluttered perspective. Your faults are a lack of constancy and persistence, and a tendency to overlook or ignore deep emotional issues and other people’s feelings.
The unusual and unorthodox appeal to you. You don’t allow tradition, convention or other people’s expectations to dictate how you are going to live your life. You crave freedom, adventure, excitement, and discovery, and are not afraid of change. You possess inventive and creative genius.
You tend to think and act bravely and have a positive and firm demeanour. You have what it takes to make your own way in life. You may be a bit excitable, but you’ll never shy away from a good argument.
You alternate between aggression and apathy and sometimes feel that you are unable to meet all the demands made on you. Once you become aware of what you need to do, however, you are capable of working long and hard, not giving up until your work is done.
Section 2: Mental interests and abilities
Your mind operates in a very deliberate and methodical manner and you dislike being rushed or forced to give an opinion before you have thoroughly ruminated and digested an idea. You are also difficult to influence once your mind is made up.
Though slower to grasp new concepts or learn new skills, you are patient and persevering and, in fact, often become quite adept at whatever you put your mind and hand to, for you are willing to devote much time and attention to it. You succeed not so much because of your mental brilliance, but because you have the ability to concentrate and follow a project through to its completion. You have an aptitude for singing or drawing.
Your mind is serious and deep. You have excellent powers of concentration and enjoy studying or thinking deeply in solitude. You have an aptitude for research or doing mental work that requires precise, organised thinking, attention to detail and a methodical approach. You are conservative, something of a skeptic, and may be narrow-minded and closed to new ideas, especially if there is no concrete proof or scientific verification of them. Socially, you are rather reserved, uncommunicative, and uncomfortable with light, frivolous conversation.
You have good powers of perception and visualisation and an
intense imagination. Greatly inspired, you feel optimistic and
hopeful for the future. You are likely to talk a lot about your
plans and are inclined to put on an act at times.
