She prefers a regular routine, with definite hours and clearly defined responsibilities and tasks.

She is interested in concrete results and solid, practical achievements. Marion Zimmer Bradley needs to have some tangible product or contribution to show for her 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 she does.

Indecision and confusion over her ambitions or direction in life may hold Marion back from achieving anything solid, especially in her early life.
