Carol Burnett
drive and ambition

She is a perfectionist and has high standards for her own work. Carol Burnett often feels that if she wants something done right she must do it herself, for others do not do as thorough a job as she does. Doing a task well is very important to her, and she may labor over minute details that others would not bother with. Carol Burnett strives for accuracy, efficiency and precision, and she becomes very irritable when things are not done "right".

On the other hand, Carol Burnett can become so much of a perfectionist and so self-critical that she will not even attempt many activities and projects, feeling that her efforts will simply not be good enough. She is usually modest and realistic in assessing what she can accomplish and, if anything, Carol Burnett underestimates herself. Of course, practice makes perfect, and if Burnett does apply herself diligently in a given area, she gradually gains self-confidence as she masters skills and develops expertise.

Carol Burnett conserves her energy and paces herself so that she does not waste or diffuse her efforts. An unwillingness to take risks or venture from the beaten track can sometimes limit her opportunities. In short, Burnett may not aim high enough, thereby settling for too little in life.

Carol Burnett 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 Carol at times, and she pushes herself too hard. Burnett can also be too demanding of the people she works with.

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

Carol Burnett has a very active and fertile imagination and Burnett's ambitions are never strictly mundane, practical and concrete. Carol Burnett has a strong desire to act out her fantasies, dreams, visions and ideals. Artistic creation, drama, or other areas in which Burnett can express herself imaginatively are ideally suited to her. Ordinary life seems drab and uninteresting to Burnett, and she needs to have some lofty dream or something grander than her own narrow personal interests to live for. Sometimes Burnett may be confused about exactly how and where to direct her energy and she often drifts along rather than making clear decisions about what she wants. Carol Burnett has a passive side and at times lacks the will power, physical energy, strength and fighting spirit to achieve her aims.

Burnett impresses others with her strong individuality and her powerful personality. Carol Burnett puts all of her energy into getting ahead and attaining her ambitions and feels no desire to demonstrate her abilities to anyone, but her work is likely to be noticed.

Her desires are very strong and at times Carol Burnett could be quite forceful and impulsive in her sexual expression. Carol wants to be with those who are closest and most important to her and she has a great need to express her affection in her relationships.

Innovation, discovery, originality, experimentation, and opening up new channels of understanding are important aspects of her life's work. Burnett's ambitions in life, as well as the way she achieves those goals, are unique or "alternative". Concerned with future trends and the new, Carol Burnett is apt to be ahead of her time in many respects.

Often Carol Burnett 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 Carol 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 Carol Burnett has to decide on one or another at a given time, rather than try to have both.

She is optimistic, has a lot of ideas, and is very fond of talking. Always ready to expand her mind, Carol Burnett has a zeal for learning new subjects. She may be interested in scientific fields and is likely to be very successful in her vocation.
