Matthew Lawrence
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 Matthew Lawrence, 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 Lawrence at times he may consequently appear less intelligent or at least less quick-witted and verbal than others. This was especially true of Matthew Lawrence 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. Matthew often forms an opinion about a person or situation without much factual knowledge of them, and his impressions are usually correct. Lawrence can be somewhat absent-minded and he becomes so immersed in his own thoughts that he overlooks things in his immediate, tangible environment. Matthew Lawrence is extremely open-minded and believes that anything is possible. Intangible or spiritual forces seem just as real to Matthew Lawrence as anything in the concrete world. His imagination and sympathetic understanding of other people are two of his greatest gifts.

Matthew Lawrence thinks a great deal about his career, his reputation and public image, and the way he makes a contribution or impact on the world at large. Public speaking or communications of some other kind is likely to be an important aspect of the work Matthew Lawrence does.

Intellectually, he is very competitive, argumentative sharp, and incisive. Matthew Lawrence starts arguments and may stir up animosity with his impulsiveness and tactlessness. Lawrence always likes to have the last word, and others often feel that he does not really listen to what they are attempting to communicate; so while he may win the battle (especially if it is a battle of wits), he may well lose the war. In other words, Lawrence's relationships in all arenas suffer tremendously from Lawrence's aggressive way of getting his point across and his inability to take in what others are saying. Learning techniques to calm Lawrence's nervous system and relax his mind would be extremely beneficial for him.

Matthew Lawrence has a very restless and curious mind, and an endless thirst for knowledge, information, learning, or - at the very least - mental stimulation. Intellectually, Lawrence likes to cover a lot of ground, see the big picture and grasp the overall concepts. Matthew Lawrence naturally seeks to discover how all of the small pieces fit together in some grand pattern, and what it all means. Details, technical precision, and the practical application of his theories or insights are not really Lawrence's concern. His "broad brush strokes" approach can be a bit sloppy.

The study of universal law, religion, philosophy or other primarily abstract and conceptual fields appeal to Lawrence. He is ideally suited for broadcasting, publishing, communicating to large groups of people and teaching. When he is enthusiastic about an idea, it is very hard for Matthew Lawrence to keep it to himself. He has a bit of the evangelist in him.

Prudent and far-sighted, Matthew Lawrence has a talent for organizing and negotiating advantageous business deals. Lawrence has a wealth of plans and is capable of thinking them out and putting them into action successfully. Matthew Lawrence seems to have the sense to avoid any real risky ventures.
