Olympia Dukakis
drive and ambition

She is a perfectionist and has high standards for her own work. Olympia Dukakis often feels that if she wants something done right she must do it herself, for others do not do as thorough a job as she does. Doing a task well is very important to her, and she may labor over minute details that others would not bother with. Olympia Dukakis strives for accuracy, efficiency and precision, and she becomes very irritable when things are not done "right".

On the other hand, Olympia Dukakis can become so much of a perfectionist and so self-critical that she will not even attempt many activities and projects, feeling that her efforts will simply not be good enough. She is usually modest and realistic in assessing what she can accomplish and, if anything, Olympia Dukakis underestimates herself. Of course, practice makes perfect, and if Dukakis does apply herself diligently in a given area, she gradually gains self-confidence as she masters skills and develops expertise.

Olympia Dukakis conserves her energy and paces herself so that she does not waste or diffuse her efforts. An unwillingness to take risks or venture from the beaten track can sometimes limit her opportunities. In short, Dukakis may not aim high enough, thereby settling for too little in life.

Asserting herself and being direct and forceful about what she wants is very often difficult for Olympia. Though she may have a great deal of energy and drive, Olympia Dukakis lacks confidence or simply the desire to put herself and her interests first. Positively, Dukakis can be very unselfish, working more on behalf of others rather than for herself.

However, Olympia Dukakis denies her own desires and needs too much, and she is likely to secretly become very angry, which will sabotage her finest efforts.

Olympia Dukakis has a very active and fertile imagination and Dukakis' ambitions are never strictly mundane, practical and concrete. Olympia Dukakis has a strong desire to act out her fantasies, dreams, visions and ideals. Artistic creation, drama, or other areas in which Dukakis can express herself imaginatively are ideally suited to her. Ordinary life seems drab and uninteresting to Dukakis, and she needs to have some lofty dream or something grander than her own narrow personal interests to live for. Sometimes Dukakis may be confused about exactly how and where to direct her energy and she often drifts along rather than making clear decisions about what she wants. Olympia Dukakis has a passive side and at times lacks the will power, physical energy, strength and fighting spirit to achieve her aims.

She may be able to sustain a great deal of tension over a long period of time, but then Olympia Dukakis suddenly releases it by taking unexpected and very radical actions. Dukakis is not above challenging others for a decisive fight!

Language, words, communication, networking, clarity of speech or writing, being a messenger or go-between - these are key features in her career, as well as how Olympia Dukakis goes about achieving her goals and ambitions. "Work smarter, not harder" is Dukakis' motto.

She is attracted to careers which are somewhat unusual, creative, or avant-garde, and which offer Olympia Dukakis a maximum amount of freedom and independence. The nine-to-five routine is really not her cup of tea. Olympia may make her living in diversified ways rather than focusing on one specific area or talent, and she is happiest when she can create a place in the world for her unique combination of different talents and interests. It is hard and unnatural for Olympia Dukakis to try to fit herself into a ready-made mold.
