You have a good feeling for the drama of situations – all that overblown emotionalism and heightened tension is like food for your soul. You need these qualities to such a degree that often you’ll exaggerate mundane events in order to accommodate your sense of fantasy.
You like to look at and plan things from the larger viewpoint. You are not as good at working with detail as you are in seeing the big picture. Your ideas are always on a grand scale and you do not like to get bogged down in trivialities. Because of your great optimism you may promise more than you can deliver. You have the tendency to exaggerate whatever it is you are talking about, including yourself and perhaps your own abilities. There are times when you just plain talk too much or say the same things over and over, figuring maybe you weren’t understood or heard the first time you said them. You have the tendency to check and re-check things over and over even though you know they were fine the first time, like setting the alarm clock or checking to see if you locked the front door. At times you can be impractical because of the scale of your visions. Travel is especially interesting to you as it gives you a chance to be exposed to and soak up new knowledge. You are always ready to let other people know what your opinions and viewpoints are, even though they haven’t asked. Philosophical speculation and theorizing about abstract concepts are fun for you. You’re always ready to play Devil’s advocate even if you happen to agree with your opponent’s point of view. You just like a good discussion, argument or debate. You enjoy mental sparring matches.
You are interested in the broad view, in universal principles and systems, in seeing connecting relationships and patterns, and in seeing the whole picture rather than the component parts. You have great respect and thirst for knowledge and education is very important to you, whether it is the formal kind or the informal kind that continues long past college days. You love to teach and to pass on your knowledge and experiences to others. As a teacher you learn as much from your students as they learn from you because you are always questioning and wondering about this and that. Writing and speaking are also two avenues that you may pursue and it wouldn’t be surprising if you had some sort of connection to broadcasting, publishing or advertising. You are a natural salesperson and people tend to trust you and believe what you tell them.
You are perhaps better at dreaming up schemes than in implementing them. You are just as happy if someone else does the actual work after you have thought up what needs doing. You have a direct, open, frank and honorable mental attitude and you do not go around intentionally trying to deceive people. Your optimism and faith in the future help you succeed in all your activities. At times you can display a certain stubbornness of mind and thought. You like variety and want to be as accomplished as possible in as many areas as you can be. Just be careful that you do not end up the Jack-of-all-trades and the master of none, unless, of course, that is really what you want for yourself.
