Mary Welsh Hemingway
drive and ambition

Once Mary Welsh Hemingway sets her mind on a goal, her dedication, determination, and commitment are extraordinary. Mary Welsh pursues her ambitions tenaciously and will stubbornly refuse to give up, let go, or be influenced in any way. Like Aesop's tortoise, Mary labors patiently and steadfastly until she achieves what she wants - or until it is clear beyond a shadow of a doubt that all is lost. She is a reliable, consistent and productive worker, and she often shoulders more of the workload than her co-workers, usually without complaint. She often ends up with the nitty-gritty work. She prefers a regular routine, with definite hours and clearly defined responsibilities and tasks. In fact, establishing a pattern or routine is very important to her success because once she gets started in a certain direction, it is easy for Mary Welsh Hemingway to kept to that path. Getting started is more difficult.

She is interested in concrete results and solid, practical achievements. Mary Welsh Hemingway 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. Mary's stamina and persistence are her greatest assets, but they can also work against her; she can get caught in a rut and refuse to seize new opportunities. Mary Welsh Hemingway also tends to play it safe, and to limit herself as a result.

Mary Welsh Hemingway often buys things on impulse and she can be reckless with her material resources and money. Mary has certain possessions that she is extremely attached to and possessive of.

Conscientious, responsible, and serious about her work, Mary Welsh Hemingway accomplishes a great deal through her dedication. She is the person in the office or company who follows through, quietly sustains the effort, and keeps on going in spite of tedium, setbacks, or dry spells. This is often the key to Mary's success. However, Mary Welsh Hemingway is humble about her accomplishments and contributions, and may thus not receive the recognition or recompense that she deserves.

Older, more experienced individuals or mentors are likely to play a significant and beneficial role in Mary's life.

Deep, compelling drives which Mary Welsh Hemingway does not entirely understand are apt to be the source of her rather extraordinary ambitions. She may find that a drive for dominance, power, and control arises out of the rather problematic and intense relationships Mary had with one or both of her parents. If Mary Welsh Hemingway is willing to delve deeply into her own fears and inner life, clearing away much of the conditioning of her earliest years, she will indeed discover tremendous inner resources which can be used to fuel her rise in the world.
