Stephen King
mental interests and abilities

One of Stephen's greatest assets is his ability to see both sides of an issue, and to negotiate and bring about compromise and reconciliation. Tactful, reasonable, and endowed with considerable social finesse, Stephen King works well with people in business as well as in personal relationships. He is objective and somewhat detached from emotional bias, and makes an excellent consultant, mediator or public relations person. Stephen King insists on fairness and seeks to foster harmony or at least peaceful coexistence between people. His sense of diplomacy is an asset to any business or social setting. Stephen King also has fine aesthetic sensitivities and could work in an artistic or cultural environment.

Stephen has an introspective turn of mind and may enjoy keeping a journal or a record of his dreams and personal experiences, or learning about psychology, history, and the inner workings and emotional foundations of his own life. King is studious and somewhat of a bookworm.

Stephen has a knack for establishing a rapport and communicating with people, is blessed with great interpersonal skills, and is adept at dealing with the public. Stephen King communicates concern, interest, and the ability to listen, which encourages people to open up and confide in him even if they do not know Stephen well. King fosters close relationships with others by talking to them (even gossiping will do), or by writing intimate, personal letters. Women feel that Stephen King understands them.

Although he is perceptive and attuned to the personal, human side of any issue (as described above), Stephen King is also capable of considerable intellectual detachment and objectivity. King combines the qualities of being subjective and intuitive with a rational, analytical approach. Stephen has an introverted frame of mind and tends to dissect or deeply analyze his own inner life and experiences as well as those of others.

Stephen King has a great capacity for concentration, handling details, and learning about subjects others might find ponderous, too technical or dry. He could easily become a teacher of some specialized skill or field of knowledge. Practical applications and techniques are his forte. In speech Stephen King tends to be factual and to the point.

Although Stephen King's thinking is precise and logical, as described above, at times King can be quite the opposite. There may very well be periods of absentmindedness, building castles in the air, or ruminating over mystical, abstract or imponderable subjects, as discussed below.

His mind does not function in a linear, logical manner and Stephen King is often unable to express his thoughts in simple, everyday language. Symbols, images, art or music better express King's ideas. Flights of imagination and fantasy carry Stephen into strange and beautiful worlds, and he could foster the ability to transcribe some of his perceptions so as to share them with others, for example, by writing fantasy, fiction, lyrics or poetry. King is sensitive to nuances and possesses intuitive or psychic gifts, but he may become confused between imagination and true perception. Stephen King has a strong mystical and idealistic bent, and has difficulty focusing his attention on practical or mundane activities. Stephen King is strongly attracted to metaphysical and spiritual topics.

His mind is marked by a penetrating depth and thoroughness. Stephen King ferrets out the facts, and particularly enjoys problems with an element of mystery, darkness or the forbidden. Generally, King does not shy away from the truth, no matter how unpleasant it is.

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