and can become discontented, particularly when things are not happening fast

strong-willed. He uses a direct approach when dealing with others, but still
considers them. He is generally seen as a good decision maker and problem
solver, a verbally fluent individual. He has the ability to influence and
persuade others to his way of thinking. He tends to get bored very quickly once
the challenge is gone or once the excitement of a job has been lost. He is
competitive, very much a self starter and very ambitious. Because this person
is so active and eager, he must be careful to channel his energy productively.

little more patient and tolerant, particularly with those who are not as quick
or responsive. He is a person who is generally very forceful and dominating,
particularly on first acquaintance. He is a results-oriented individual, who
knows the direction in which he wants to go. He is willing to take risks to
make things happen. He may find if difficult to back off once decisions are made, or when in conflict with others.
