Patty Hearst
mental interests and abilities

She is more of a poet than a rational scientist, for her mind does not function in a strictly logical, linear fashion. The language of music, art or poetry comes naturally to Patty Hearst, and she is also able to think in highly abstract and symbolic terms. Translating her thoughts and impressions into concrete, everyday language may be difficult for Hearst at times she may consequently appear less intelligent or at least less quick-witted and verbal than others. This was especially true of Patty Hearst as a child, and she probably daydreamed a good deal as well. She is intuitive and able to sense the thoughts and feelings of others even before they say anything to her. Patty often forms an opinion about a person or situation without much factual knowledge of them, and her impressions are usually correct. Hearst can be somewhat absent-minded and she becomes so immersed in her own thoughts that she overlooks things in her immediate, tangible environment. Patty Hearst is extremely open-minded and believes that anything is possible. Intangible or spiritual forces seem just as real to Patty Hearst as anything in the concrete world. Her imagination and sympathetic understanding of other people are two of her greatest gifts.

She is often involved in verbal exchanges, interviews, discussions, debates, counseling, negotiations, providing and obtaining feedback, and sharing information. Patty Hearst is drawn to intelligent and verbal people with whom she can communicate and from whom she can learn. Patty loves to have an audience to hear her ideas, and she also appreciates eloquent presentations by others.

Patty Hearst has an abundance of ideas, interests, and plans for the future, and may find it difficult to focus on any single area. She is not a specialist for she seeks a broad overview; she wants a glance of the whole picture rather than a close scrutiny of its components. Philosophy, religion or other areas of theoretical speculation interest her.

She also possesses foresight, numerous enterprising ideas and a gambling instinct - all of which contribute to her success in the business world. However, Hearst's optimism and grand vision can also get her into trouble. Patty Hearst sometimes promises more than she can deliver, glosses over important details that come back to haunt her later, and overestimates the potential of an idea or product.

Traveling is a great love of Hearst's, especially if there is a mind-expanding or educational aspect involved, and Patty Hearst may travel extensively in her work. Consulting or education would be ideal fields for her.

Independent and freethinking, Patty Hearst dislikes being told what to do and how to do it, and she especially does not like being told how to think, for Patty insists on discovering her own truth. Patty Hearst does well in a rather unstructured environment that allows her to make her own decisions and to respond to the needs of the moment, rather than following a routine, standardized way of doing things. She is also suited to a fast-paced atmosphere, which Hearst finds exciting and stimulating. Her mind functions in an intuitive, nonlinear fashion and sudden insights and flashes of inspiration often come to her "out of the blue". Patty has an aptitude for science and new technologies are of particular interest to her. Patty Hearst also has a penchant for astrology or other esoteric sciences.

Patty Hearst tends to have big plans and pursues her ideas with great zeal. Patty Hearst also has the power to influence people and sway them to her point of view. She may accomplish this through public speaking or writing, and could do well in publicity or advertising.
