Energy Projection Analysis

"You project an aura of seriousness, maturity, and authority. Even as a child, you likely appeared 'grown-up.' People respect you instinctively and look to you for leadership. You appear ambitious, disciplined, and perhaps a bit reserved or cold. Others perceive you as a boss or a father figure. Your mask is one of competence and stoicism, often hiding a deep need for approval and a fear of failure."
