This type can grasp the overall
situation easily and see
all the facets of a project. This helps him to be a good
organizer. He can
envision a plan and present it effectively, helping
people to see their role
in relation to others. The Visionary has a good sense of
symmetry and balance,
and he realizes how important it is to never impose on
people. This person
carries an organized mental picture of things in his
mind's eye, which gives
him the tools to guide others effectively. He finds a
challenge in achieving
harmony and peace within himself and in his surroundings.
This type is aware
of subtle details in personality and is able to work with
others easily.
He can see what it is like to be in another man's shoes,
but can still remain
emotionally detached. The Visionary has the ability to
"feel with" other
people which establishes rapport and good communication.
He is sensitive
to his surroundings and creates for himself an attractive
and pleasant
environment. This person is neat in appearance. He is
usually artistic and
appreciates the beauty and balance of nature. In his
friendships with others,
outward manifestations of affection are important. When a
Visionary is out
of balance, however, he will have many difficulties.
There will be a drive
to have everything perfect. He quickly sees an overall
picture but insists
that everyone else see it his way. He seldom misses
spotting errors in other
people's work or flaws in their ideas, and he thinks it
is his duty to correct
them. The unbalanced Visionary will disorganize
situations by bringing up
many complicated details to convince others that his way
is best. When people
do not allow him to dominate, he becomes discouraged,
disillusioned, and
gives up. He may even resort to developing a headache to
gain sympathy. He
uses his thoughts for the purpose of control and
manipulation. He takes a
tragic view of life because things never seem to meet his
expectations of
perfection. He lives a fairy tale life in his own world
of make-believe.
A Visionary with very little self-awareness worries a lot
about little things
and is easily upset. He often becomes emotionally
involved with other people's
problems. This concern is motivated by his desire to
control and force others
to depend on him for help or advice. He retains memories
of negative emotional
experiences and frequently brings them to mind. This
person does not handle
pressure well and complains that he is over-sensitive and
easily hurt. He
exaggerates his emotional needs and withdraws into
himself, frequently becoming
tired or confused. He is a poor listener and usually
seems not to hear or
understand what others try to explain to him. Once the
Visionary can learn
more about himself, however, he can overcome these
difficulties. It is a
matter of learning to understand himself and his
tendencies. The Visionary
is known as clairvoyant or clear-seeing. Everything he
sees is then translated
into thought and feeling, and he usually remembers what
he sees. Some Visionaries
even have a "photographic mind" and are able to
recall names, dates, places,
or events very easily once they have seen them. You might
say they think
in pictures.
