Ally Sheedy
drive and ambition

Once Ally Sheedy sets her mind on a goal, her dedication, determination, and commitment are extraordinary. Sheedy pursues her ambitions tenaciously and will stubbornly refuse to give up, let go, or be influenced in any way. Like Aesop's tortoise, Ally labors patiently and steadfastly until she achieves what she wants - or until it is clear beyond a shadow of a doubt that all is lost. She is a reliable, consistent and productive worker, and she often shoulders more of the workload than her co-workers, usually without complaint. She often ends up with the nitty-gritty work. She prefers a regular routine, with definite hours and clearly defined responsibilities and tasks. In fact, establishing a pattern or routine is very important to her success because once she gets started in a certain direction, it is easy for Ally Sheedy to kept to that path. Getting started is more difficult. Ally Sheedy has a lazy, comfort-loving side and there is often a good deal of inertia for her to overcome before Sheedy gets going; but once she gets a momentum going, her energy level is strong and steady.

She is interested in concrete results and solid, practical achievements. Ally Sheedy needs to have some tangible product or contribution to show for her efforts, and cannot be content with only intangible rewards (such as having a good time, learning, or spiritual enrichment). Material well-being and security is also a large factor in determining what she does. Ally's stamina and persistence are her greatest assets, but they can also work against her; she can get caught in a rut and refuse to seize new opportunities. Ally Sheedy also tends to play it safe, and to limit herself as a result.

She is a team player and works well in collaboration with others who share her goals, ideals, and intentions. Ally Sheedy can coordinate group efforts and inspire people to work toward a shared goal.

Team sports are also a lot of fun for Ally, and she could be a leader, coach, or director of any group endeavor.

Ally Sheedy has a rather cocky, confident, we-can-do-it attitude which people in her environment pick up on quite readily. Inspiring, motivating, and encouraging others to go out and do their very best is one of Ally's innate gifts. Ally Sheedy has faith in the power of action and boldness, and enjoys imitating new programs and projects.

Although enterprising and proactive, Ally Sheedy is also capable of ample much self-discipline, patience and effort. She may swing from confidence and trust in the future to pessimism and doubt, when it comes to achieving her aims in life.

Ally Sheedy works hard and patiently to achieve her objectives and perseveres in spite of difficulties and discouragement. When concentrating on a single, clearly defined goal, Ally is able to accomplish a great deal, but she often feels that the path is long and arduous, and that she must struggle on alone and shoulder the burden single-handedly.

She is capable of great self-control and self-denial and can be a hard taskmaster, expecting far too much of herself. She also tends to hold herself back and doubt her own power and ability. Ally Sheedy feels that she meets with great resistance whenever she tries to assert herself or take initiative. Anger and frustration can be big problems for Ally Sheedy, especially when she tries to work with other people or depend too much on others for support. Ally works best in solitude.

Her competitive drive and lofty ambitions (commented upon earlier) feed on either intense spiritual idealism or a rather inflated, grandiose idea of what Ally Sheedy can actually accomplish. Her energy level is apt to fluctuate from being very high, as noted earlier, to rather low, as mentioned in the following paragraphs.

Unless she has a goal that transcends merely personal gain, Ally Sheedy is apt to become deeply discontented, aimless and uncertain of her direction in life. At her best, Ally Sheedy will work or fight for a greater cause, and feel fulfilled through serving the greater good. However, should she lack the necessary focus, Sheedy could be confused and easily persuaded to do things that are either unethical or simply ineffectual.

Ally Sheedy has a strong sense of mission and instinctively knows that in order to achieve anything great, one must eliminate superfluous activities and give oneself wholly to the task at hand. Her zeal, enthusiasm and clarity of purpose enable Ally Sheedy to succeed and to achieve whatever she sets her mind to. Ally Sheedy has a strong will, but is usually quiet and understated by nature.

She is likely to feel depressed frequently and has a strong desire to overcome it, but may not be able to count on much support from others. Ally Sheedy tends to separate herself from others and she feels like being expelled from society.

Deep, compelling drives which Ally Sheedy does not entirely understand are apt to be the source of her rather extraordinary ambitions. She may find that a drive for dominance, power, and control arises out of the rather problematic and intense relationships Ally had with one or both of her parents. If Ally Sheedy is willing to delve deeply into her own fears and inner life, clearing away much of the conditioning of her earliest years, she will indeed discover tremendous inner resources which can be used to fuel her rise in the world.

Her resistance and stamina are inclined to be a bit low and Ally Sheedy tends to be easily influenced by others. She may leave herself open to being corrupted by others and should guard against involvement in situations that she may later regret.
