You're popular and definitely a people person and can be the life of the party even in every-day settings like the coffee shop. That people oriented personality of yours makes people part of what distracts you during your daily to dos. The phone rings or sounds off with a text message but the fact that you're working on something important doesn't stop you. You reach for it because there's another human being on the other end of the line and you want to connect. You're easily distracted and chase the BSOs (AKA, bright shiny objects) on a regular basis. You have a great memory and are good when it comes to laying out the details like names, dates and facts, which makes you prone to keeping it all in your head instead of putting it in writing. That strength makes you good at creating that TDL (to do list) but your impulsive nature has you fall short when it comes to knocking things off of it. Things on it get done, just not in such a timely manner. The same cannot be said, however for the spontaneous tasks that come to mind during the day. They get done because you usually shift gears to tend to them as soon as they come up. Discipline is not your forte, my dear and multitasking gets you every time because you choose things more complicated than walking and chewing gum.

Introverted, talented, creative, focused, persistent and quite serious. Sometimes a little too serious, so lighten up buttercup. Decisive and resolute also come to mind. You are all about the details and love lists, charts graphs and any other form of organized info including figures like the latest stats on your favorite subject or the passion that is your work. Those beautiful things serve you well because you tend to be visual. Seeing it makes it real for you. You are a constant thinker, to the point of it being your bane. You can easily kill things with your thoughts because they hold tight, never letting go. Then it becomes too late to act because you've over analyzed it and it wasn't even really that serious. That is part of what kills your productivity because it can cause you to procrastinate and it's right up there with those high standards of yours when it comes to stalling, and let's not forget about the tendency for perfectionism that has you waste precious time that you can never get back. Being orderly and organized comes in handy and will fuel your days if you let it because you're focused on what needs to be done when you're not thinking things to death.

You're decisive and a bit strong willed; an adventurous soul with a compulsive need for change. That need can work well for you if your work environment brings that to the table. That take-charge personality of yours makes it easy for you to delegate as long as you're sure you're handing the task over to someone who's capable and will follow through and get 'er done. If you're not so sure your controlling ways can have you in the role of Micro Manager and that will kill your productivity. Now, don't take it personally when I say that you might think that you're perfect. You've just got the confidence of a male peacock and want to spread those beautiful feathers for all to see. They dare not tell you that you aren't perfect. You have a great need for accomplishment so you push when it comes to getting things done and some may consider you to be pushy or bossy, but you're focused on the stuff that needs to get done, right? The plan is always laid out, sometimes just in your head but it's there nonetheless. It's sad to say that you probably don't include the necessary down time you need to bounce back from going so hard to feed that need for accomplishment. The goals-oriented nature helps keep you and those around you on track if they're working on your team because you wouldn't have it any other way.

You are laid back and low key and your expression around productivity is, "Relax. I know, I'll get to it." You've got a patience about you that might have people wondering just how you can exhibit so much of it. The patience allows you to continue to flow through difficult days and get things done although your focus is sometimes just not there. You get along with just about everyone you meet which is a bonus for working with or on teams. You may not want to be the one in charge, but if you allow for it, you can learn to be a leader, but you'll have to work on the focus and your indecisive nature (better known as procrastinating to make a decision). That's not sexy and it costs you time. You're a good listener. People love that and they can be on the list of things that impede your productivity. Because you're all laid back, you tend to move slowly but surely, which isn't all that great when it comes to deadlines. You can find yourself burning the midnight oil to get something done because you wait until right before it's due to take it on. That same behavior is what has you late to meetings too. Sometimes it's the hard thinking that has you wait to dive in. You almost always get it done, but in your own time. Now that you know your Persona, register for the Time Rival's Journey.
