Gran - the Doer

Gran is an outgoing, straight-shooting type. Enthusiastic and excitable, Gran is a "doer" who lives in the world of action. Blunt, straight-forward risk-taker, she is willing to plunge right into things and get her hands dirty. She lives in the here-and-now, and places little importance on introspection or theory. She looks at the facts of a situation, quickly decides what should be done, executes the action, and moves on to the next thing.
Gran has the uncanny ability to perceive people's attitudes and motivations. She picks up on little cues which go completely unnoticed by most people, such as facial expressions and stance. She is typically a couple of steps ahead of the person she is interacting with. Gran uses this ability to get what she wants out of a situation. Rules and laws are seen as a guideline for behavior, rather than mandates. If Gran has decided that something needs to be done, then her "do it and get on with it" attitude takes precendence over the rules. However, Gran has her own strong belief in what's right and what's wrong, and will doggedly stick to her principles. The Rules of the Establishment sometimes hold little value to Gran, but her own integrity mandates that she will not under any circumstances do something which she feels to be wrong.
Gran has a strong flair for drama and style. A fast-moving, fast-talking person who has an appreciation for the finer things in life. She is very good at story telling and improvising. Typically making things up as she goes along, rather than following a plan. She loves to have fun, and is fun to be around. But can sometimes be hurtful to others without being aware of it, as she generally doesn't know and may not care about the effect her words have on others. It's not that she doesn't care about people, it's that her decision-making process does not involve taking people's feelings into account. She makes decisions based on facts and logic.
Grans least developed area is her intuitive side. Impatient with theory, and sees little use for it in her quest to "get things done". Gran will occasionally have strong intuitions which are often way off-base, but sometimes very lucid and positive. She does not trust her instincts, and is suspicious of other people's intuition as well.
Gran would have had trouble in school, especially higher education which moves into realms where theory is more important. Making it boring because she felt she gained no useful material which can be used to get things done. Gran can be brilliantly intelligent, but school was a difficult chore for her.
Gran needs to keep moving, and so does well in careers where she is not restricted or confined. Gran would make an extremely good salespersons. She will become stifled and unhappy dealing with routine chores. She has a natural abundance of energy and enthusiasm, which makes her a natural entrepreneur. Getting very excited about things, and having the ability to motivate others to excitement and action. She can sell anyone on any idea. She is action-oriented, and makes decisions quickly. All-in-all, she has extraordinary talents for getting things started. Not usually so good at following through, may leave those tasks to others.
Gran is a practical, observant, fun-loving, spontaneous risk-taker with an excellent ability to quickly improvise an innovative solution to a problem. She is enthusiastic and fun to be with, and is a great motivator.
