Pearl Bailey
drive and ambition

She is a perfectionist and has high standards for her own work. Pearl Bailey 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. Pearl Bailey strives for accuracy, efficiency and precision, and she becomes very irritable when things are not done "right".

On the other hand, Pearl Bailey 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, Pearl Bailey underestimates herself. Of course, practice makes perfect, and if Bailey does apply herself diligently in a given area, she gradually gains self-confidence as she masters skills and develops expertise.

Pearl Bailey 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, Bailey may not aim high enough, thereby settling for too little in life.

Pearl Bailey expects to work hard for anything she accomplishes and she has no patience for people who do not pull their own weight. Work is a passion for Pearl at times, and she pushes herself too hard. Bailey can also be too demanding of the people she works with.

If her energy is not invested in a job or career, Pearl Bailey can become fanatic about her health, and may exercise or "work out" vigorously and perhaps excessively.

Pearl Bailey seems to lack determination and has a sense of inferiority. She tends to think negatively about herself and is inclined to downgrade herself. But Pearl Bailey has strong self-control, accepts hardship well and has the desire to overcome her difficulties.

Pearl has the patience and the stamina to realize her visions and bring them down to earth, a fine balance between hard work and realism, and a positive, hopeful spirit. Pearl Bailey grows through following systems and plans, and taking one step at a time. Overnight success or instant enlightenment is not what Bailey aims for. Her patient, well-balanced approach gives Pearl Bailey credibility with many different types of people, and she is apt to gain an excellent reputation for being able to do big things without overreaching or becoming pretentious.

Pearl has an abundance of energy, drive, and spirit to accomplish just about anything she desires. Much can be accomplished thanks to Pearl's single-mindedness and zeal to get things done. Sometimes Pearl Bailey pushes herself too hard without even realizing it, but sometimes even she needs to relax and stop doing. Pearl Bailey has the reputation for being a go-getter and a good worker.

Pearl Bailey feels that she knows who she is and therefore is confident that she can achieve her objectives. She may consider marriage as her sole aim in life and could become completely bound up in her marriage and family life.

Pearl Bailey tends to have a very deep soul-life and a great need for deep spiritual understanding and truth. Pearl has the ability to open herself up to the spiritual dimensions and what she may learn could prove to be of permanent value to her.
