Sade
drive and ambition

Once Sade sets her mind on a goal, her dedication, determination, and commitment are extraordinary. Sade Adu pursues her ambitions tenaciously and will stubbornly refuse to give up, let go, or be influenced in any way. Like Aesop's tortoise, Sade 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 Sade to kept to that path. Getting started is more difficult. Sade has a lazy, comfort-loving side and there is often a good deal of inertia for her to overcome before Sade Adu gets going; but once she gets a momentum going, her energy level is strong and steady.

She is interested in concrete results and solid, practical achievements. Sade 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. Sade'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. Sade also tends to play it safe, and to limit herself as a result.

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

Sade Adu dedicates herself wholeheartedly to a cause, makes a great deal of sacrifices and does away with superfluous activities and interests. Others find her approach too severe and are unwilling to go along with Sade under the difficult circumstances that she is willing to tolerate. Her determination and capacity for self-denial often help Sade Adu get through the rough spots and achieve the goal she is aiming for.

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 Sade goes about achieving her goals and ambitions. "Work smarter, not harder" is Sade Adu's motto.

Sade Adu's profession may be unusual, very innovative and progressive, or outside the "mainstream", providing alternative services or products. Sade's career and rise in the professional arena are marked by a certain uneven, erratic quality. Sudden changes of fortune, unexpected upsets and twists of fate are likely.

Sade seems to lack confidence in herself and worries about being compromised or exposed. She may feel that she is unable to defend herself and tends to withdraw from close relationships. It is more important to Sade to do the right thing than to be popular.

Self-confident and very ambitious, Sade has unusual abilities for self-advancement. She is very career-oriented and inclined to focus all of her energies on her career. Sade likes to be in control of everything and is likely to achieve recognition.
