Jack White
drive and ambition

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

He is interested in concrete results and solid, practical achievements. Jack White needs to have some tangible product or contribution to show for his 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 he does. Jack's stamina and persistence are his greatest assets, but they can also work against him; he can get caught in a rut and refuse to seize new opportunities. Jack White also tends to play it safe, and to limit himself as a result.

Jack White encounters numerous challenges and possibly defeats in the pursuit of his goals and desires, and his setbacks often occur because Jack has been too rash or intent on satisfying his own will regardless of the impact on others. Jack White is intense and passionate, and simply does not know when to stop sometimes! Recklessness with others can be a problem for White.

He is intensely willful and can create trouble for himself by rather unconsciously forging ahead, without realizing that he is trampling over people. Sometimes, if Jack White cannot get what he wants directly, he will try to dominate, manipulate or seek power in a covert, subtle sort of way.

Language, words, communication, networking, clarity of speech or writing, being a messenger or go-between - these are key features in his career, as well as how Jack White goes about achieving his goals and ambitions. "Work smarter, not harder" is White's motto.

Innovation, discovery, originality, experimentation and new channels of understanding are important aspects of his life's work. White's ambitions in life, as well as the way he achieves those goals, are unique or "alternative". Concerned with future trends and innovation, Jack White is likely to be ahead of his time in many respects.

The road to success, professional advancement and fulfillment of his long-range goals is likely to be easier and smoother for Jack White than for many. This is partly due to his getting a great deal of financial and/or emotional support. Someone early in his life probably really believed in Jack and had high expectations for him. Jack White contributes to his own success by setting high goals and enlisting the aid of friends and others to achieve these goals. A lack of selfishness or pettiness is a great boon to him. Whatever Jack White does is likely to be expansive and eventually quite prosperous.
