Command
Command leads you to take charge. Unlike some people, you feel nodiscomfort with imposing your views on others. On the contrary, onceyour opinion is formed, you need to share it with others. Once your goalis set, you feel restless until you have aligned others with you. You arenot frightened by confrontation; rather, you know that confrontation isthe first step toward resolution. Whereas others may avoid facing up tolife's unpleasantness, you feel compelled to present the facts or thetruth, no matter how unpleasant it may be. You need things to be clearbetween people and challenge them to be clear-eyed and honest. Youpush them to take risks. You may even intimidate them. And while somemay resent this, labeling you opinionated, they often willingly hand youthe reins. People are drawn toward those who take a stance and askthem to move in a certain direction. Therefore, people will be drawn toyou. You have presence. You have Command.

Likewise, you are attracted toothers who seem to have found and cultivated their own strengths. Youtend to avoid those who want to fix you and make you well rounded. Youdon't want to spend your life bemoaning what you lack. Rather, youwant to capitalize on the gifts with which you are blessed. It's more fun.It's more productive. And, counterintuitively, it is more demanding.
Strategic
The Strategic theme enables you to sort through the clutter and find thebest route. It is not a skill that can be taught. It is a distinct way of thinking, a special perspective on the world at large. This perspectiveallows you to see patterns where others simply see complexity. Mindfulof these patterns, you play out alternative scenarios, always asking,"What if this happened? Okay, well what if this happened?" Thisrecurring question helps you see around the next corner. There you canevaluate accurately the potential obstacles. Guided by where you see
