Handwriting Analysis, and Comprehensive Astrology and Numerology

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/

You must thoroughly understand your competition to triumph.

Everyone has their own unique strengths and weaknesses, and many of the most dominant ones can’t be exposed by conventional methods.

Alternatively, comprehensive astrology and numerology allow you to expose limitations and vulnerabilities, along with many other personal dynamics, such as when a person will appear to be invincible and untouchable.

Think of how much time and money you could save if you knew the approximate times when you would most definitely lose to your adversary.

Also, think of the incredible advantage you would have if you knew when your opponent is most ineffectual.

Please note: Hazardous situations such as a person’s livelihood being in jeopardy, or having to deal with a nasty situation may demand the type of assessment featured in this article. Furthermore, under certain circumstances, your competition my resort to clandestine methods in an attempt to gain an edge. It’s under these conditions that you’re forced to take additional steps to level the playing field. The approach outlined here allows you to do this.

Below I list several confidential areas of interest, discernible through comprehensive astrology and numerology in a Competitive Advantage Assessment, related to knowing your competition in remarkably uncommon ways.

1. Periods of strength, such as when the person is on top of their game–seemingly unconquerable (e.g., in negotiations, deal-making, etc.), most likely to receive recognition, or most likely to win a lawsuit and, or come out on top regarding any legal action.

2. Periods of weakness, such as when the person is most vulnerable, likely to talk too much and spill the beans, likely to encounter dangerous business opportunities, likely to be at risk for financial loss, likely to encounter people who are ultimately against their highest good, most likely to feel like they’ve been betrayed, likely to be humbled, under very poor timing to launch a new endeavor, at risk for ill-fated speculation, or likely to feel the most isolated and fearful.

3. Periods of transition, such as when the person is at a peak point in their career, likely to have to start over, or feeling like things are stagnant.

In conjunction with handwriting analysis ( http://scottpetullo.com/blog/2011/07/5-possible-ways-to-understand-and-outmaneuver-your-enemy/ ), a Competitive Advantage Assessment involving the above-mentioned areas of focus (and much more) can greatly help you reduce your risk.

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/

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Exposing potential problem areas through handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology gives you a distinct advantage, helping you to dramatically reduce your risk.

Copyright © 2011 Scott Petullo

To outsmart your rival, you need a thorough understanding of that person.

Even the most trivial detail about your adversary’s personality could be used to gain an advantage in negotiations or other competitive matters, yet most facets of character are buried deep in the unconscious, below the persona that is presented to the world. Everyone has their own distinctive weaknesses and strengths.

Five possible methods to grasp the true nature of your rival, giving you the edge necessary to prevail are listed below.

1. Contact your opponent and ask him to complete a multiple choice, fill-in-the blank self-test personality evaluation. Make sure to request that he answers the questions honestly, since self-assessments can be manipulated. Unfortunately, this option probably isn’t viable.
2. Meet with your management staff, even though they don’t know the adversary and aren’t experts in personality analysis, in an attempt to inspire ideas about the adversary’s hidden personality. Regrettably, this would most likely amount to oblivious speculation, yielding a complete lack of actionable intelligence.
3. Hire a good psychologist to analyze his character, although the psychologist would likely demand an in-person assessment, and it’s doubtful your foe will be receptive to the idea.
4. Hire a security investigations firm to dig up secret information about him and his true character, which would probably involve interviewing former associates and those who are or have been close to him (if they are willing). Although this option often produces great results, you must be willing to pay a very minimum of $2000 and frequently $7500 and up for the most competent specialists. The other concern with this option is that the subject can appear to be “clean” (no criminal history, no noticeable bad reputation, etc.), but still be a master villain and a genius at evading detection.
5. Hire a reliable expert who employs handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology to delineate his authentic, veiled personality. All it takes is a sample of his script (e.g., a brief handwritten letter), and his birth data (full date of birth at a minimum, preferably with exact time, location, and full, legal birth name).

Please note: clinical behavioral terms (and other extreme expressions and conditions) such as “narcissistic,” “prejudiced,” “evasive,” “envious,” “paranoid,” “confrontational,” “sadistic,” “defiant,” “emotionally unbalanced,” “mental disorder,” “dejected,” “depressed,” “psychotic,” “vindictive,” “deceitful,” “domineering,” “dumb,” “psychosis,” “pathological,” “duplicitous,” “two-faced,” “hot-tempered,” “lacking in integrity,” and “dishonest” aren’t typically addressed in assessments related to potential hires (or other, similar situations) because they are unrelated to the personality qualities needed to successfully do a job.

In order to do an assessment under normal conditions within ethical boundaries, the subject first allows permission for the formal analysis. Circumstances and instances in this article are only to illustrate the usefulness of handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology.

Extreme situations such as an innocent person’s life being at risk and, or dealing with a dangerous criminal might warrant an analysis involving the types of personality characteristics featured in this article.

The handwriting analysis, and comprehensive astrology and numerology assessment might reveal, for example, one or more of the following results, which could give you a substantial edge in how you might approach your adversary:

1. Excessive desire for acquisition of money (knowing their motivations can greatly assist you and, or alert you to potential liability, such as in personal relationships).
2. A savior complex (would “do the right thing,” excessively, to his detriment).
3. Excessive vanity, narcissism (he could be manipulated through excessive praise and admiration).
4. Excessive rationalization, self-deception, excessive fantasy oriented thinking and, or lack of objectivity (might fool himself into settling for something less than he would otherwise, might lack a solid sense of discernment, especially while under excessive stress).
5. Excessive restlessness (might abandon negotiations too soon).
6. Perfectionism and, or excessive attention to detail (could get lost in the finer points of an undertaking, missing the bigger picture).
7. Problematic emotional balance and emotional maturity (emotional problems and lapsing into a childish disposition while under pressure could easily lead to his losing focus, thus his edge).
8. Excessive resentment (inability to let go of past wrongs could trip him up, and additional perceived injustices could break his concentration, forcing him into making a mistake).
9. Excessive sensitivity to criticism and, or excessive inhibition (knowing this could allow you to force him into being distracted).
10. Excessive secretiveness and, or evasiveness (expecting a lack of transparency can help you in your tactics).
11. Excessive lack of integrity (knowing you’re dealing with someone who has great difficulty living by his asserted convictions can help prepare you for the worst).
12. Excessive dishonesty (knowing the person is insincere, a liar and, or a deceiver can save you enormous hassles).
13. Excessive conflict avoidance (he could be manipulated into taking a less strife-oriented route, giving you the ability to steer him in the direction you choose).
14. Defiance and, or stubbornness (if you know your opponent may resort to unreasonable, unyielding behavior, you can plan accordingly).
15. Excessive tendency to bluff (expecting your adversary to bluff will allow you to more easily spot it when it happens).

As calculating and cold as it may seem, sometimes you’re forced to fight fire with fire. Greatly decrease your vulnerability and exposure to risk using handwriting analysis and comprehensive astrology and numerology, allowing you a clearer path to success.

A recent CareerBuilder survey among over 2400 U.S. hiring managers includes startling findings:

*A bad hire has negatively affected 67% of companies

*$50,000 wasted on one bad hire for 24% of companies

*$25,000 wasted on one bad hire for 40% of companies

*58% of companies stated their average cost of hiring one employee at more than $1000 (not including cost of a bad hire)

*Lost time in replacing a bad hire, lost productivity, and financial loss in having to recruit a replacement were reported as the most common ways a bad hire negatively affected companies

More information here:

It’s important to note that the generally accepted cost of a bad hire is over two times the annual salary. The costs of a bad hire estimates in the above survey were likely underestimated due to the bulk of the hidden costs being overlooked.

A sure way to reduce your risk of a bad hire is to use a full range of personality assessments, including handwriting analysis, to determine a person’s fit for the demands of the job.

Handwriting analysis is an effective tool to investigate well beyond the surface persona to reveal the subconscious personality, the real personality.

Under pressure on the job, after the interview and while superiors aren’t watching, a person’s authentic abilities and challenges emerge.

There are 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.

Remember, multiple-choice, self-test personality assessments can be manipulated. Handwriting analysis, executed by a well-trained professional, can’t be manipulated.

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