John Travolta
mental interests and abilities

He is more of a poet than a rational scientist, for his mind does not function in a strictly logical, linear fashion. The language of music, art or poetry comes naturally to John Travolta, and he is also able to think in highly abstract and symbolic terms. Translating his thoughts and impressions into concrete, everyday language may be difficult for Travolta at times he may consequently appear less intelligent or at least less quick-witted and verbal than others. This was especially true of John Travolta as a child, and he probably daydreamed a good deal as well. He is intuitive and able to sense the thoughts and feelings of others even before they say anything to him. John often forms an opinion about a person or situation without much factual knowledge of them, and his impressions are usually correct. Travolta can be somewhat absent-minded and he becomes so immersed in his own thoughts that he overlooks things in his immediate, tangible environment. John Travolta is extremely open-minded and believes that anything is possible. Intangible or spiritual forces seem just as real to John Travolta as anything in the concrete world. His imagination and sympathetic understanding of other people are two of his greatest gifts.

John has an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and wisdom and for an ever broadening understanding of life. John Travolta is the perpetual student and will be involved in higher education, philosophy, or religion. Law, broadcasting, publishing, or fields of communications are also areas that interest Travolta. World travel and studying other cultures are also strong urges of his.

John Travolta has very little interest in or knack for the technical or mechanical. Travolta's forte lies in the human, personal side of life, people, psychology and life's inner workings. John Travolta understands children and enjoys conversing with, counseling, listening to and learning about them. Travolta also needs a variety of social and intellectual experiences on a regular basis, and becomes restless, nervous, and irritable if he cannot get out and about. Travolta often needs to be mobile, to go for a walk or a drive, to regroup and to reestablish his emotional equilibrium. John Travolta tends to dwell on the past, to ponder its significance, and at times, to long for it. Nostalgia and sentimentality substantially color John's thinking.

John Travolta has an abundance of ideas, interests, and plans for the future, and may find it difficult to focus on any single area. He is not a specialist for he seeks a broad overview; he wants a glance of the whole picture rather than a close scrutiny of its components. Philosophy, religion or other areas of theoretical speculation interest him.

He also possesses foresight, numerous enterprising ideas and a gambling instinct - all of which contribute to his success in the business world. However, Travolta's optimism and grand vision can also get him into trouble. John Travolta sometimes promises more than he can deliver, glosses over important details that come back to haunt him later, and overestimates the potential of an idea or product.

Traveling is a great love of Travolta's, especially if there is a mind-expanding or educational aspect involved, and John Travolta may travel extensively in his work. Consulting or education would be ideal fields for him.

Independent and freethinking, John Travolta dislikes being told what to do and how to do it, and he especially does not like being told how to think, for John insists on discovering his own truth. John Travolta does well in a rather unstructured environment that allows him to make his own decisions and to respond to the needs of the moment, rather than following a routine, standardized way of doing things. He is also suited to a fast-paced atmosphere, which Travolta finds exciting and stimulating. His mind functions in an intuitive, nonlinear fashion and sudden insights and flashes of inspiration often come to him "out of the blue". John has an aptitude for science and new technologies are of particular interest to him. John Travolta also has a penchant for astrology or other esoteric sciences.

John Travolta has a great deal of nervous energy and he is likely to feel a strong sense of uneasiness. Others can expect to be hit back hard when they provoke him. Travolta is able to make changes if necessary, but in general he is somewhat reluctant to take chances.
