Todd Haynes
mental interests and abilities

Clear, objective and realistic, he is unimpressed by exaggerated claims or promises. Todd Haynes insists on being shown the facts behind any statement he hears, and his natural skepticism often borders on cynicism. Haynes approaches problems clearly and rationally and maintains his poise and objectivity even in the midst of critical situations. Anyone seeking Haynes' advice is certain to get an unemotional and unbiased assessment of their situation, and Todd - therefore - makes a good arbitrator or judge. He is thorough, conscientious and disciplined in his thinking, and has an aptitude for business, organization and administration. Todd Haynes is also a good strategist, and he will plan and patiently follow a realistic course which will lead to his eventual success. Serious-minded and studious, Haynes enjoys quiet time alone for thinking or reading.

Todd Haynes has a good understanding of group trends, politics, mass movements, and community affairs. Sharing ideas with groups of people is something Haynes does well and is likely to be involved with. Todd collaborates well in group efforts and is likely to be part of a successful team or large organization.

Intellectually, he is very competitive, argumentative sharp, and incisive. Todd Haynes starts arguments and may stir up animosity with his impulsiveness and tactlessness. Haynes always likes to have the last word, and others often feel that he does not really listen to what they are attempting to communicate; so while he may win the battle (especially if it is a battle of wits), he may well lose the war. In other words, Haynes' relationships in all arenas suffer tremendously from Haynes' aggressive way of getting his point across and his inability to take in what others are saying. Learning techniques to calm Haynes' nervous system and relax his mind would be extremely beneficial for him.

He enjoys philosophical speculation and theorizing about abstract ideas and concepts. Haynes is interested in a broad perspective, universal principles and systems, and connecting relationships and patterns - namely, he prefers to see the whole picture rather than the sum total of its components.Todd Haynes has a great respect and thirst for knowledge and education, and is the proverbial "perpetual student". Todd Haynes also has a talent for teaching and sharing his knowledge, and as a teacher, Todd presents himself as a fellow participant in the ongoing quest for understanding rather than as a figure of authority.

He may become involved in television, publishing or other fields that involve sharing ideas with large groups of people. Todd Haynes excels in areas that require long-range planning and foresight, and can therefore be very successful in business, but he is rather sloppy and haphazard when it comes to implementing his ideas concretely. Todd Haynes should leave the details to someone else. Travel or long-distance contacts and communication will play a major role in his life and work.

Even though Haynes can be a decisive and convincing speaker (as indicated earlier), he also has a highly imaginative and intuitive mind. This combination offers a number of possibilities: Todd could accurately articulate the images and fantasies he has, he could forcefully convince others of his own brand of idealism (or illusion!), or Todd Haynes may alternate from being very clear and direct to being rather evasive or poetic. The following describes the more fluid, non-rational aspect of Haynes' thinking.

Imaginative, intuitive, and nonlinear in his thinking, Todd Haynes has a gift for writing poetry, fiction, or fantasy. Todd also has a natural openness to the spiritual, intangible side of life and could write or speak on these subjects. An innate clairvoyant tendency could also be developed quite easily by him.

His mind is deep and penetrating and he is interested in anything secret, mysterious, or hidden, including the deeper recesses of the human psyche. Todd Haynes possesses an aptitude for private investigation, psychology and research work. Todd Haynes is also drawn to esoteric or occult studies.
