Human Intelligence Determined Through Handwriting Analysis

Tuesday, April 24th, 2012

Merriam-Webster dictionary defines intelligence as “…the ability to learn or understand or to deal with new or trying situations…the skilled use of reason…the ability to apply knowledge to manipulate one’s environment or to think abstractly as measured by objective criteria (as tests)…mental acuteness…”

There exist many factors that comprise human intelligence. Some of these include analytical ability, speed of thinking and quick comprehension, logical thinking, ability to make distinctions, decisiveness, clear thinking, and more. It’s important to avoid giving a single component too much emphasis, such as speed of thinking.

Unfortunately, negative traits like rationalization, stubbornness, and disorderly or confused thinking detract from a person’s intelligence.

Additionally, handwriting analysis can also straightforwardly assess emotional intelligence, which largely has to do with emotional maturity and balance, and has a significant impact on a person’s overall intellectual capacity. After all, an unhealthy emotional state, made worse by life’s pressures and stress, has a considerable detrimental influence on mental aptitude.

All of the aforementioned personality qualities (negative and positive) are readily assessed through handwriting analysis to determine a person’s general level of intelligence.

As one of the most effective means of identifying true personality, including overall intelligence, handwriting analysis helps you to significantly reduce your business and personal related risk. http://scottpetullo.com/blog/2011/09/addressing-handwriting-analysis-skepticism/

Exposing 7 Menacing Subconscious Personality Defenses

Tuesday, April 10th, 2012

You have free will to make the most of your life, yet there are things in life that you can’t control, such as other people’s behavior and the risk they pose to you: http://scottpetullo.com/blog/2011/05/fate-vs-free-will-you-can%E2%80%99t-choose-your-tests-in-life-but-you-can-prepare/

Embracing the illusion that you can spend a few hours or so (or even months) with someone and gain an understanding of their true personality—all the masked problem traits—is one of the biggest threats to your business and personal related risk.

Understanding the authentic nature of key individuals in your life can go a long way toward reducing your risk.

In order to do a handwriting analysis assessment within ethical boundaries, under normal conditions, the subject must first give their consent. Typically, potential new hire assessments, for example, wouldn’t include the analysis of the sorts of negative attributes below because they are unrelated to the personality qualities needed to successfully do the job.

However, dangerous circumstances such as a person’s livelihood being at risk, or otherwise having to deal with a bad character may well necessitate an analysis involving the types of personality traits featured in this article.

Select clinical behavioral terms (and other extreme phrases and descriptions) are listed here to illustrate the usefulness of the science. These and more are measurable by handwriting analysis: “narcissistic,” “prejudiced,” “evasive,” “envious,” “paranoid,” “confrontational,” “sadistic,” “emotionally unbalanced,” “mental disorder,” “dejected,” “depressed,” “psychotic,” “vindictive,” “deceitful,” “domineering,” “dumb,” “psychosis,” “pathological,” “duplicitous,” “two-faced,” “hot-tempered,” “lacking in integrity,” and “dishonest.”

Subconscious defense patterns are generally very tough to modify and include some of the most threatening and troubling personality traits.

Examples of resistance-type defenses include aggressiveness, domineering behavior, defiance, and resentment.

Examples of acute escape-type defense patterns (which are commonly more difficult to modify than the four listed above) include severe evasiveness, self-deception, and secretiveness.

A potential business partner, associate, romantic interest, or other significant individual in your life possessing such perilous personality qualities as lack of emotional balance, excessive rationalization, resentment, and insincerity would be a disaster, particularly when the subject possesses astuteness and cunning (all of which are straightforwardly assessed in handwriting analysis).

As one of the most effective means of identifying genuine personality, including red flag matters like those listed above, handwriting analysis gives you an immense advantage in helping you to limit your risk. http://scottpetullo.com/blog/2011/09/addressing-handwriting-analysis-skepticism/

The Futility of Psychological Self-Tests: 2 Key Problems

Sunday, April 1st, 2012

Countless psychological self-tests and compatibility analyses can be found on the Internet, and even many dating sites today have these sorts of evaluations in an attempt to improve matching success.

There are two problems with these self-tests:

  1. Actual personality and compatibility can’t be determined because self-tests are subjective and lacking in objectivity. A person filling out a self-report test invariably figures out the intent of the questions and answers how he or she believes they should answer to yield the most appropriate results.
  2. Besides not being able to accurately assess select personality areas, self-tests don’t assess key variables of real-life interaction, such as personality red-flag factors including complex fears and defenses.

Relying on dating site self-tests to screen potential romantic partners, for example, even those that are touted to include sophisticated “matching algorithms,” is a losing proposition.

Associate Professor of Social Psychology at Northwestern University Eli Finkel, in an article in the journal of the Association for Psychological Science says, “To date, there is no compelling evidence that any online dating matching algorithm actually works…our report concludes that it is unlikely that their algorithms can work, even in principle, given the limitations of the sorts of matching procedures that these sites use.”  More information here:
http://www.psychologicalscience.org/index.php/news/releases/grading-the-online-dating-industry.html

Although select self-tests can offer some interesting insight, such as serving as an opportunity for a team-building exercise, exclusive reliance on them invites trouble since they can be manipulated.

Alternatively, handwriting analysis is one of the most objective and non-discriminatory forms of personality analysis, giving you a distinct advantage, dramatically reducing your risk. http://scottpetullo.com/blog/2011/09/addressing-handwriting-analysis-skepticism/

5 of the Worst Personality Analysis Mistakes

Monday, February 20th, 2012

Understanding true personality strengths and weaknesses is vital for your career, business, and personal life success. It can save you an enormous amount of time and money if you get it right, yet misinterpreting personality can ruin you.

Myers-Briggs

Although I believe psychological self-tests such as Myers-Briggs (http://scottpetullo.com/blog/2010/02/effectiveness-of-myers-briggs-personality-assessment-questioned/) can help determine social inclination, or even be a somewhat useful part of a pre-employment evaluation program, for example, everybody knows you’re on your best behavior while taking self-tests.

It’s impossible to acquire an adequately defined view of abilities and potential personality problem areas exclusively from self-tests, even if they are “psychologist approved.” The self-tests can be gamed.

Enneagram

The Enneagram personality typing system is another popular method, relying on only nine categories, including “The Reformer,” “The Helper,” “The Achiever,” “The Individualist,” “The Investigator,” “the Loyalist,” “The Enthusiast,” “The Challenger,” and “The Peacemaker.

Essentially, in using such a method, you’re observing a person’s behavior for a period of time, sometimes a very brief period of time, and selecting one of the nine categories, or perhaps more than one.

Let’s see, this person appears (never mind that it could very well be her business persona, and not her real personality) to be rational, people-pleasing, driven and success-oriented, responsible and engaging, versatile and spontaneous, and willful and self-confident.

The above listed traits are specifically from six of the nine Enneagram categories, so that makes her a “Reformer—Helper—Achiever—Loyalist—Enthusiast—Challenger.”

Wait a minute, someone identified her the next day as a “Peacemaker” (agreeable, receptive, reassuring), because “She is so nice; we clicked so well!”

Well, why not just place her and everyone else in all nine categories?

Are you starting to see a problem with this sort of assessment?

Considering some of the negative personality traits from seven of the nine categories, the following are created: the “perfectionistic Reformer,” “possessive Helper,” “self-absorbed and temperamental Individualist,” “secretive and isolated Investigator,” “anxious and suspicious Loyalist,” “scattered Enthusiast,” and “confrontational Challenger.”

Unfortunately, it’s entirely possible someone might possess none of those negative personality traits, or alternatively, even several from multiple categories.

Regrettably, you’re only going to be scratching the surface of authentic personality if you lack an objective system of analysis. In other words, without set standards of interpretation that disallow partiality, guessing at someone’s “type” won’t give you accurate results, and you certainly can’t rely entirely on fill-in-the blank and multiple choice self-tests to delineate true personality.

Instead of oversimplified assessment methods that can’t identify distinct individual strengths and challenges, you need a more comprehensive (and objective) method such as handwriting analysis that can accurately delineate specific personality red flags and talents.

Included below are five common personality analysis mistakes:

  1. Making the erroneous assumption that the complex human personality can be crammed into only one or a few personality types. Expecting consistently accurate character and compatibility analyses with subjective personality typing systems is like expecting to become an overnight millionaire through Internet marketing (less than 5% of all Internet marketers succeed, and far fewer have become millionaires).
  2. Attempting to identify your “blind spots” or strengths through subjective analysis such as with a personality typing system—you need someone outside yourself and a more objective system.
  3. Making the false assumption you can simply look for “cues,” “particular language,” or “specific behaviors” in other people to type them and assess their character accurately (unless you have them under a microscope for hours, including high-stress situations, and you’re a trained psychologist, it’s impossible for the average person to do this, even with “Internet guru advice”).
  4. Erroneously (and astonishingly mindlessly) believing you can predict another person’s future behavior while under pressure exclusively with subjective and self-test personality typing systems.
  5. Mistakenly thinking you can discern subconscious motivations and compatibility from mere subjective and self-test personality typing systems.

I strongly recommend the use of a range of evaluations, including handwriting analysis, in conjunction with other psychological testing methods to determine authentic personality and, or if a person’s abilities match the demands of the job.

Handwriting analysis, in conjunction with comprehensive astrology and numerology, is invaluable to reduce your risk because it can’t be manipulated and absolutely assesses actual personality–subconscious character—well beyond the persona when an individual is at their best, such as when they know they are being scrutinized.

What Really Matters Besides The 3 Most Important Interview Questions

Tuesday, February 14th, 2012

The job interview is one of the most important parts of the hiring process, along with background checks, confirming employment history and credentials, and evaluating skills related to the job.

George Bradt, a forbes.com contributor, succinctly captures the core essence of the job interview in 3 key questions:

  1. Can you do the job (abilities)?
  2. Will you love the job (motivation)?
  3. Can we tolerate working with you (are you a fit for the company and its current employees)?

http://www.forbes.com/sites/georgebradt/2011/04/27/top-executive-recruiters-agree-there-are-only-three-key-job-interview-questions/

The above-linked article is from the perspective of a hiring manager or business owner who wants to hire the best candidate possible for the job and minimize turnover.

Considering that about 40% of corporate executives leave their respective organizations in less than 18 months, existing hiring practices aren’t very efficient.

Not only do bad hires damage the company’s profit margin, but being placed in an inappropriate job also hurts a person’s career.

The problem with relying heavily on the interview process is that many applicants excel at interviewing; they’re rapid-fire thinkers who will look you in the eye and tell you exactly what you want to hear in a convincing way, even if they aren’t sincere. Essentially, just like personality self-tests, the interview process can be manipulated, and you won’t even know it until after the person is hired.

I recommend the following to avoid the above-mentioned pitfall:

  1. Conduct multiple interviews with several supervisors.
  2. Evaluate the candidate’s skills related to the job through multiple assessment methods, including handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology.
  3. In the case of having the luxury of several good candidates from which to choose, identify the least risky candidate through handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology. This involves looking for compatibility red flags between the potential new hire and existing staff, and also identifying personality red flags (e.g., involving people skills) that might clash with the company’s culture.

Additionally, it’s wise to confirm the potential employee’s true motivations to determine if they are likely to love the job or not: http://scottpetullo.com/blog/2011/11/handwriting-analysis-and-motivations-what-really-motivates-you/. For example, no matter what they say in the interview, if they thrive in a team environment, they won’t be happy working independently.

Under stress on the job, after the hiring process and while superiors aren’t watching, a person’s authentic personality emerges.

There exist many personality traits and red flag concerns that aren’t easy to measure by only talking to an applicant, reviewing their resume, and through standard personality evaluations.

Having an accurate read of character through handwriting analysis, and comprehensive astrology and numerology, you’ll greatly reduce your risk, and save enormous amounts of time and money in hiring situations.

5 Ways to Get to Know Someone’s Character

Tuesday, February 7th, 2012

Everyone has his or her own unique strengths and weaknesses, and there will always be people who are a serious threat to your security.

The way to discern which individuals will benefit you greatly and which are fated to be a challenge is to get to know them well. As the saying goes, people don’t change, you just get to know them better.

Here are five ways to get to know someone’s personality:

  1. Time. The longer you spend getting to know someone, the better you’ll know him or her. However, time is a luxury and there could be great risks allocating a long period of time for someone only to find out that they are a hazard to your livelihood and life in general.
  2. Stress. Under pressure a person drops their persona, and the real character is revealed; a person who appears to be a great leader, for example, turns out to be a domineering dictator under stress. The problem here is that many people are very good at maintaining the façade until it’s too late. You might spend months or even years being under the illusion that a person is good for you until you find out the scary truth.
  3. Sex. Intimacy is a sure way to know someone very well. However, since most people don’t have sex with their staff or coworkers, or those with whom they do business, sex is only useful for getting to know someone’s character in select situations. Even in your personal life, it may be too late by the time you’re intimate with the person you thought was exceptional.
  4. Security investigations are a very good way to get to know someone, but you must be willing to pay at least $2000 and commonly $7500 and up for good intelligence on an individual. The other issue with this option is that the person can appear to be completely “clean,” with no tarnished image, record or criminal history, but could simply be a genius at avoiding detection.
  5. Handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology can help you make enormous headway in effectively outlining a person’s authentic character. All you need is the person’s birth data and a reasonable sample of his or her script (e.g., a brief handwritten letter).

Uncovering perilous risks through handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology is extremely cost effective and gives you a substantial edge in goal attainment.

Business and Personal: Identifying Acceptable Risk vs. Dangerous Risk

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012

Prudent risk-taking in business and your personal life is a major component of success.

Taking a chance is far less risky if you’re well informed. Below I list five examples of how you can identify, through handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology, whether an opportunity is right for you or if it’s likely to be problematic.

  1. You’re tempted to accept an offer involving a business partnership, but you don’t know the person very well. Is he reliable and what are his true motivations?
  2. You formulate what you believe is a fantastic business plan and you’re considering a specific launch date. The approximate time you thought of the original idea, when you plan to launch, and your collective timing speaks volumes about its success. Will this be a great success, a learning experience, or even a disaster?
  3. You’ve met what you believe to be the romantic interest of your dreams. The approximate time and date you met, the compatibility discerned between you, along with your overall timing will tell the truth of the matter: great reward, terrible connection cloaked in illusion, or somewhere in the middle?
  4. A valuable employee is up for a promotion, but are the new responsibilities you have in mind for them appropriate? Failure could really harm this person’s career, not to mention the company.
  5. Confidentiality is extremely important to you. You’re considering three different new associates and they all have appropriate abilities and backgrounds. Which one of them can be trusted the most? Are there any major professional compatibility red flags between you and any of the three candidates?

Exposing unsafe risks through handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology gives you a huge advantage, increasing your peace of mind and level of success.

Origin of Misfortune is in the Past: How to Safeguard Yourself

Monday, January 16th, 2012

Results of empirical observation involving handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology over a span of more than two decades indicate to me that mishaps and other challenges in life aren’t random.

The root of a problem, such as an accident, is in the past, whether that past is in this life or a previous one.

Through personal fate, negative self-subconscious programming (e.g., a person regularly exclaiming how “unlucky,” “clumsy,” or “broke” they are), or other ways such as a self-castigation complex, people sometimes unknowingly do themselves in.

It’s unfortunate, and regularly just a matter of unavoidable, immutable personal fate, but you do have the option to limit your exposure to risk, accidents, and life’s disasters.

3 ways to safeguard yourself from mishaps are listed below:

  1. Watch your thinking. Do you ever find yourself in a semi-daydream state imagining a calamity such as a car wreck or sports accident, or even just a minor physical ailment? Whenever you find yourself going down that mental path, reverse the image and envision yourself as safe and sound and avoiding danger; doing so leaves a positive imprint on your subconscious mind, reducing your risk. Another, more obvious way to limit life’s hazards is to strive to be centered. Meditation helps with this.
  2. Pay attention to the character of those in your life who you don’t yet know very well. Concerned about misfortune in conjunction with a potential business partner, for example? You should be, as you can’t control his or her behavior, but you can prepare yourself and limit your risk by identifying red flags through handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology.
  3. Although it may sound excessively esoteric, it’s wise to learn about your unique personal fate through comprehensive astrology and numerology because it can absolutely prepare you to make the most of your life and handle life’s challenges more effectively, limiting the disadvantages. Finances, love life, family, career, and more—all significant areas of life include unique opportunities and risks and the more you know yourself as related to predestined karma and unalterable personal adversity, the better off you’ll be.

While you can’t avoid circumstances and events that are beyond your control, you can greatly reduce your risk by following the above advice.

Security Investigations: A Little Known Way to Gain an Edge

Monday, December 19th, 2011

The greater the number of unknown factors in your business dealings and personal life, the higher your risk.

You can’t control the behavior of a potential business partner, associate, romantic partner, or an adversary, but you can get to know them well enough to greatly minimize your risk.

Sometimes you’re able to spot red flags before it’s too late, but invariably, well-hidden personality flaws cause substantial loss of time and money.

Successful risk reduction involving personality analysis and forecasting personal trends is about constantly utilizing veiled information, such as buried subconscious personality characteristics or unexpected future time cycle trends.

Everyone has his or her own unique personality strong points and challenges. While it’s true that traditional security investigations can unearth a great deal of useful information about anyone, much can remain concealed, particularly if the person is adept at covering his or her tracks.

Strong Analytical Ability: How to Identify it Before Hiring

Monday, November 21st, 2011

An aptitude for considering all facets of an issue and extracting essential information is crucial for successful workplace problem solving.

Strong analytical ability, persistence, consistency, determination, and other skills are characteristics of the exceptional employee that helps to streamline complex work processes and safeguard your company’s survival and profitability.

Hiring an employee who seems to have strong analytical ability and then later finding out that they don’t can be costly.

How do you find out if someone really has the type of effective analytical ability that can help strengthen your company’s competitiveness?

You could ask a potential hire to discuss how they’ve successfully problem-solved on the job, and how they rate their analytical ability. Personality profiling tests can also help.

Additionally, it’s recommended to evaluate your potential employees with a more objective form of character assessment before you make a job offer.

Handwriting analysis is one of the most non-discriminatory, objective, and accurate forms of personality analysis.

It’s important to note that while under pressure and stress, the true personality appears. The authentic personality, the subconscious self, is effectively examined through handwriting analysis.

Analytical ability can be thoroughly and accurately determined through handwriting analysis, helping you to reduce your exposure to risk.
