Anna Freud
drive and ambition

Anna Freud is extremely strong-willed and she pursues her goals and desires with passionate dedication and determination. She is capable of total concentration and tremendous discipline, and she is very difficult to influence or sway once her mind is made up. When Anna Freud wants something, Freud can be very one-sided and almost obsessed with it. She is very instinctive and does not always consciously know why she feels as strongly and deeply as she does.

She also tends to be secretive and unwilling to reveal her aims and intentions, and the intensity of her will and desire may not initially be apparent to others. However, Freud is very forceful in a quiet and subtle way. Anna Freud often manipulates or forces her will upon other people, without being overtly aggressive. She is not interested in confrontation but she is a formidable foe if she encounters opposition or aggression. Anna is courageous and has a rather primitive, raw side as well.

Anna Freud expects to work hard for anything she accomplishes and she has no patience for people who do not pull their own weight. Work is a passion for Anna at times, and she pushes herself too hard. Freud can also be too demanding of the people she works with.

If her energy is not invested in a job or career, Anna Freud can become fanatic about her health, and may exercise or "work out" vigorously and perhaps excessively.

Dynamic, self-willed, and fiercely independent, she has extraordinary drive and energy. When Anna Freud wants something, she wants it this very minute, and she acts quickly, impulsively and decisively. Her impatience inclines Anna Freud to be abrupt with people and reckless. She needs a great deal of personal freedom to do things in her own way and does not happily conform to schedules, rules or regimes imposed by others. She is intolerant of authority and can be very rebellious. She is very frank with others, sometimes brutally so. Anna Freud may have an explosive temper. High-strung and often nervous and tense, Anna finds it difficult to slow down, pace herself or relax. Anna Freud is always on the go. She is restless, daring and experimental.

She may find it difficult to communicate with others and has a tendency to quarrel. It is hard for Anna Freud to express herself and her ideas and opinions may often be challenged by others. Because of frequent disagreements, Anna is likely to feel that her relationships are incompatible.

Working with others seems to make Freud happy and she is likely to be a much sought colleague or co-worker. Anna Freud has a need to establish many relationships and she enjoys open communication with her contacts.

Anna's profession is apt to involve communications, language, carrying messages, sales, speaking, or teaching - put simply, getting ideas across. A great deal of social involvement, networking, and personnel skills also play a significant part in her professional role.

Often Anna Freud feels like she is being pulled in two directions - what she needs to do to fulfill her long-range ambitions, and what she actually feels like doing. This may make it difficult for Anna to be constant and consistent in pursuing goals, career aims, etc.

Relationships with women, trying to satisfy family needs, or other emotional attachments sometimes also conflict. Often Anna Freud has to decide on one or another at a given time, rather than try to have both.
