Great Green Career

The Thinker   The Builder
     
CURIOUS MINDS like yours are keen to dig up more information about people, places and things all the time. You are a voracious reader. While easily getting lost in your own world of fantasy, films, music...you still have a sensitivity and interest in contemporary affairs.

Subjects like history, geography, environmental and social studies are to your liking. You have a way with words and don’t groan when asked to write a thousand word essay.

You are a bit of a stubborn independent minded person. New ideas and places attract you.

Though a not a party animal, your reflective self likes interacting with people of all kinds.


  CREATING OBJECTS of use out of waste; tinkering and fixing gadgets at home; building imaginative structures was a talent that did’nt go unnoticed in your childhood.

You feel challenged and excited when asked to create something. Working against a deadline with equally creative team mates thrills you.

Mathematics, geometry, physics and chemistry are subjects that you score high in.

If asked to rotate a 3D object in your mind you dont hesitate and can visualise it quite easily – in other words you have great ‘spatial intelligence’.

A genuine concern for the way humans and their technologies have degraded the ecology drives you to seek innovative solutions.


     
The Communicator   The Healer
     
POLITICAL ANIMAL is what would describe you best. Contemporary social issues attract your attention. Human behaviour fascinates you.

You love debating controversial social issues. You feel stongly about environmental and social issues.

You devour newspapers, magazines, books – an information junkie. You enjoy travelling.

You have reasonable reading and writing skills. If not actually practice, the visual and performing arts interest you. Creative and imaginative people inspire you.

Personal passions and interests over wealth and fame is your motto.

  NURTURING and regenerating people and the environment is what gets you motivated.

Your extra sensitivity towards other living creatures and their plight attracts appreciation and exasperation from others around you.

You feel strongly about animal welfare and are also keen on wildlife.

The outdoors is not just a challenge but a space you crave to spend hours in. Heat, dust and rain don’t bother you very much.

You are physically fit, tough and have stamina.

You are emotinally independent and are happy being with yourself, alone, for long stretches of time.
