Samuel Beckett
mental interests and abilities

Outspoken and direct, he is always eager to express his ideas and opinions and does not mind opposing the consensus and stirring up a little controversy. Samuel has fresh, original ideas and a great deal of enthusiasm for anything new and untried, but once the novelty has worn off, he is interested in another new idea or project. Samuel Beckett never seems to have enough time to do everything he wants. He is very honest, speaks decisively and convincingly about things he believes in, and is unable to pretend to agree with someone if he honestly does not. He may be somewhat lacking in tact.

Beckett enjoys puzzles and other games that challenge him intellectually. Samuel Beckett likes to show off his verbal or intellectual skills and to use his mind creatively. Writing, dramatic speaking or some other manifestation of his creative intelligence appeal to him.

He is mentally restless, intellectually thirsty and immensely curious. Samuel Beckett may study and travel widely in order to satisfy these urges and he is even happier if he shares his journeys with companions. Samuel's gifts lie in his capacity for learning about the beliefs of a broad spectrum of people, making long-distance connections, opening up channels of communication and understanding, bringing people together from foreign lands, and promoting social and cultural exchange.

He is an original thinker, capable of unique discoveries and innovations, but he tends to scatter his energies in too many directions at once and to make impulsive or hasty decisions. Samuel Beckett grasps ideas very quickly and becomes impatient with duller or more conservative minds. A fast-moving, mentally stimulating, and unpredictable atmosphere suits Samuel quite well, even though he may complain about the stress and the crazy pace. Samuel Beckett has a technical bent and is interested in the newest scientific theories and findings, electronics, computers, etc.

His mind is highly imaginative and creative and he possesses dramatic, artistic or musical abilities. As a child, Samuel Beckett enjoyed daydreaming, fantasizing and pretending, and probably lived in "his own little world" a good deal. He perceives things that are not obvious to other people and Samuel Beckett has an uncanny ability to "read" people and situations without being told anything about them. However, Samuel Beckett must learn to discriminate between true psychic perception and his imagination. Learning to discipline and focus his mind is necessary if Beckett wishes to use all of his creative potential. Otherwise, Samuel Beckett could be simply a dreamer.

Communication with others is difficult for Samuel Beckett because he often finds words frustrating and inadequate to express his experiences and perceptions. Also, Samuel may purposefully mystify or deceive others.

His thinking is somewhat sober and Beckett visualizes everything with complete reality. Samuel Beckett tends to be a late bloomer and could be a bit narrow-minded or selfish in matters of love relationships. Samuel Beckett seems to have a certain fear of being left out in some way.

He may have some strange experiences and could be interested in exploring the unconscious or some new kinds of consciousness. Curious about mystical and occult things, Samuel Beckett may occupy himself investigating supernatural questions.
