Joseph Alioto
mental interests and abilities

He is a progressive thinker and he is open and receptive to new technologies and breakthroughs in science, and the latest discoveries in any field. Joseph Alioto has high expectations and a profound belief that mankind's problems can be solved through the use of man's creative intelligence and inventive mind. Joseph has no patience for those whose conservative, unimaginative outlook limits their capacity to find solutions and envision a better future. Alioto also likes to keep abreast of current developments in world affairs, for he instinctively knows that what happens in one part of the world affects everyone. Joseph Alioto has a strong humanitarian drive. Practically speaking, Joseph Alioto has an aptitude for organization and enjoys being involved in cooperative endeavors or businesses that are contemporary and innovative.

Joseph does not speak up readily, even when he has a lot to say! Also, his mind tends to drift and Alioto finds it difficult to study very factual material that does not have much color or imaginative appeal. His intuition and first impressions are likely to be quite accurate, however, and Joseph Alioto tends to depend upon this faculty in making decisions.

Joseph Alioto would be an excellent teacher or counselor for he listens sympathetically and encourages others to express their inner thoughts and feelings. People trust and confide in Joseph, and he is able to read between the lines and sense what their feelings are as well as what they are saying. Alioto works well with and understands women as well as the emotional, feminine side of life. He is articulate on personal (rather than factual or technical) subjects. Keeping a diary or journal would be satisfying for Alioto. Joseph Alioto also has a talent for learning languages.

Although he is perceptive and attuned to the personal, human side of any issue (as described above), Joseph Alioto is also capable of considerable intellectual detachment and objectivity. Alioto combines the qualities of being subjective and intuitive with a rational, analytical approach. Joseph has an introverted frame of mind and tends to dissect or deeply analyze his own inner life and experiences as well as those of others.

Joseph Alioto has a deep, serious turn of mind, and when out of balance, he tends toward pessimism, cynicism, and overly rigid or judgmental thinking. These are tendencies Alioto may have to work to counteract, by choosing to focus on the humor in a situation, associating with cheerful, positive-minded people, and so on. Being around children can sometimes alter and lighten up his mental outlook considerably. Duty, obligation, "should", and "ought to" may color Joseph's thinking too much.
