Jerry Brown
drive and ambition

Once Jerry Brown sets his mind on a goal, his dedication, determination, and commitment are extraordinary. Brown pursues his ambitions tenaciously and will stubbornly refuse to give up, let go, or be influenced in any way. Like Aesop's tortoise, Jerry 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 Jerry Brown to kept to that path. Getting started is more difficult. Jerry Brown has a lazy, comfort-loving side and there is often a good deal of inertia for him to overcome before Brown 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. Jerry Brown 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. Jerry'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. Jerry Brown also tends to play it safe, and to limit himself as a result.

He is likely to be known for his drive, energy, ambition and competitive spirit. He is likely to espouse a career based on his ability to take initiative, be a leader, or excel in physical strength and prowess. Jerry Brown most definitely wants to be a winner and will work hard to achieve it.

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

While Jerry Brown is often charged with energy and inspired about what he wants to do (as mentioned earlier), there is a dreamy, visionary, or passive side to him as well. His energy level may fluctuate from being superabundant to rather lax.

Brown dreams up creative solutions to problems and takes an imaginative, unusual approach to getting a job done. When difficulties arise, Jerry Brown prefers to avoid conflict and confrontation in favor of more peaceful or subtle methods of resolving problems. Brown finds it satisfying to work in order to help others or for a cause that transcends his own narrow, personal interests. Jerry Brown has an artistic flair and appreciates the colorful, unique or strange.

Positions of honor, affluence, influence and stature in his community can be his. Jerry Brown feels that his destiny involves leadership or distinguishing himself in some way. Jerry possesses an innate sense of greatness or importance, and a strong drive to achieve recognition for his talent. Jerry Brown should avoid excessive egotism and arrogant pride, for these could limit his opportunities.

He may have to overcome something in his background or personal past in order to achieve his long-range goals and ambitions. Sometimes Jerry Brown may feel pulled in two different directions - what others expect of him or what he needs to do in order to progress versus what his old conditioning or his emotional predisposition would have him do. Overcoming the pull of the past is the key.

In some ways Jerry Brown may feel that he has little choice about his role in society. He is compelled either by unusual external circumstances or by an inner drive, to bring potentially dark, difficult, or taboo issues into public awareness. Jerry delves into the hidden side of life - things which may have been purposefully concealed or repressed - and sheds light on them. Jerry Brown could come into direct conflict with the authorities or powers-that-be as a result. He is apt to have extraordinary ambitions, and could also become overly zealous and fanatical.

The road to success, professional advancement and fulfillment of his long-range goals is likely to be easier and smoother for Jerry Brown 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 Jerry and had high expectations for him. Jerry Brown 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 Jerry Brown does is likely to be expansive and eventually quite prosperous.

Jerry has the ability to concentrate, but is inclined to be wrapped up entirely in his own ideas. Although he has a tendency to think too much, Jerry Brown thinks out the consequences of his actions ahead of time and derives the necessary lessons from his experiences.

Jerry Brown strives to be at one with others, but somehow is not able to synchronize his feelings or viewpoints with theirs. Feeling disappointed, Jerry may prefer a life of seclusion, away from other people.
