Winnie Madikizela-Mandela
mental interests and abilities

One of Winnie's greatest assets is her 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, Winnie Madikizela-Mandela works well with people in business as well as in personal relationships. She is objective and somewhat detached from emotional bias, and makes an excellent consultant, mediator or public relations person.

Winnie Madikizela-Mandela also has fine aesthetic sensitivities and could work in an artistic or cultural environment.

Winnie Madikizela-Mandela thinks a great deal about her career, her reputation and public image, and the way she makes a contribution or impact on the world at large. Public speaking or communications of some other kind is likely to be an important aspect of the work Winnie Madikizela-Mandela does.

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

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

Although broadminded and interested in the philosophical or long-range implications of any plan (as mentioned earlier), Winnie Mandela's mind is clear and practical as well. Her wide-ranging ideas and interests are grounded by a sense of realism and order. At times Winnie Madikizela-Mandela may seesaw between her optimism and sense of broader possibilities, and her skepticism and need for facts and tangible proof.

Winnie Madikizela-Mandela possesses excellent powers of concentration and enjoys studying or deep thinking in solitude. Discriminating and highly rational, Winnie Mandela gets right down to the bare bones in any discussion and is quick to see the fuzzy thinking or weaknesses in another's logic. She is well-suited to any work that requires organized thinking, precision and a methodical approach. She enjoys working on problems that others consider too tedious, repetitive or technical. Winnie Madikizela-Mandela tends to become a specialist in a given field of knowledge and to become engrossed in all of the small details involved, sometimes unaware that only few people share her particular interest, especially to the extent that she does.

Never satisfied with the face value of anything, Winnie is always probing beneath the surface for deeper reasons and hidden motives - though she rarely reveals her own. Winnie Madikizela-Mandela has a very suspicious, even paranoid, side. Her mind is penetrating and Winnie Madikizela-Mandela has an aptitude for research, investigative reporting or private investigation. She is keenly interested in the deeper aspects of the human psyche, with a sort of "x-ray vision" of the inner motivations and intentions of others. She is drawn to anything secret, hidden, or mysterious, and may pursue esoteric or occult studies. Winnie Mandela is also a forceful and convincing speaker or writer, with the ability to influence people's thinking by the sheer power of her conviction.
