You are a great problem-solver. No task is too hard for you! You are very resourceful and easily able to adapt when necessary. You tend to think critically and logically when making decisions, rarely letting your emotions cloud your judgment. When confronted with a problem, you try to use the information available to make the best decision, hoping for the best. You place a great deal of trust your own judgement, which is based solely off of unbiased logic and reasoning. You have little tolerance for intuitive judgments. Rather, you prefer to evaluate the information available to you and make a decision quickly.
You have initiative. You are very curious and want to learn as much as you can about the world around you. Oftentimes, you become very interested in one topic and are able to learn a great deal about it in a short amount of time. This passion for learning often makes you very successful in your education and your career.
Initially, you can appear to be very reserved. However, once others get to know you, you are an excellent friend. You are accepting of all others and rarely judgmental. You are not a strong conversationalist, but you are great communicator when it comes to working as a team to solve a problem.
Because you are very detail-oriented, you may have a difficult time thinking about big concepts or theories. You would much rather focus on realistic possibilities that are practical, rather than big ideas with limited practical importance. At times, it may be hard for you to see the big picture or look too far into the future, and you may get caught up in details of the present moment instead.
You are not afraid to take risks. In some cases, this can be a positive trait. However, these risk-taking tendencies often make you prone to poorly thought-out decisions. You may make irresponsible financial choices like gambling or impulsive purchases. At times like these, you often forget about your responsibilities and how your actions may affect others. Aside from this, your impulsiveness may make you prone to difficulties in other areas of your life. You are constantly seeking new and exciting things, making it hard for you to focus in school. It is critical that you continually practice keeping your impulses in check. If you are able to do this, however, your enthusiasm and charisma will help you become very successful in life.
