Zara Phillips
drive and ambition

Once Zara Phillips sets her mind on a goal, her dedication, determination, and commitment are extraordinary. Phillips pursues her ambitions tenaciously and will stubbornly refuse to give up, let go, or be influenced in any way. Like Aesop's tortoise, Zara 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 Zara Phillips to kept to that path. Getting started is more difficult. Zara Phillips has a lazy, comfort-loving side and there is often a good deal of inertia for her to overcome before Phillips 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. Zara Phillips 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. Zara'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. Zara Phillips also tends to play it safe, and to limit herself as a result.

Zara Phillips expects to work hard for anything she accomplishes and she has no patience for people who do not pull their own weight. Work is a passion for Zara at times, and she pushes herself too hard. Phillips can also be too demanding of the people she works with.

If her energy is not invested in a job or career, Zara Phillips can become fanatic about her health, and may exercise or "work out" vigorously and perhaps excessively.

Because of her somewhat negative attitude, Zara could feel listless a great deal of time and is likely to become physically inactive. Zara Phillips tends to become easily overwhelmed; her objectives tend to be unclear, and Phillips questions her ability to attain them.

To achieve her long-range goals and ambitions, the process must be interesting and mentally stimulating, as Phillips gets bored with work that is not challenging intellectually. Zara Phillips needs variety and social stimulation as well. One problem she may have is saying the wrong thing at the wrong time, or to the wrong person. Zara needs to watch her words. Her tongue or even her sense of humor can get Zara Phillips in trouble with superiors at times.

Zara has an abundance of energy, drive, and spirit to accomplish just about anything she desires. Much can be accomplished thanks to Zara's single-mindedness and zeal to get things done. Sometimes Zara Phillips pushes herself too hard without even realizing it, but sometimes even she needs to relax and stop doing. Zara Phillips has the reputation for being a go-getter and a good worker.

She is sensitive to everything around her and soaks up experiences like a sponge. Zara Phillips must avoid becoming depressed when things do not go her way. Phillips also needs to overcome being somewhat timid and to build up her own self-image.
