First Born

By Minotte Rodrigo-Cuenca

Firstborns tend to be highly motivated to achieve. Of the first 23
astronauts sent into outer space, 21 were firstborns or only children.

Positive traits: They are natural leaders and often high achievers. The
majority of politicians, spokespersons and managing directors are
firstborns. They frequently live with a sense of entitlement and even
superiority, they sometimes don't have to prove themselves. They often
come in two flavors: Compliant nurturers/caregivers (the ates) or
aggressive movers and shakers (the kuyas). Both are in control; they
just use different methods. As a rule, firstborns are picky, precise
people and have difficulty adjusting(not true). They pay attention to detail, tend
to be punctual, organized, and competent. They want to see things done
right the first time.

Negative traits: They don't like surprises and have to learn how to
express more emotion. They are often moody and occasionally lack
sensitivity. They can be intimidating and pushy. Sometimes they can be a
bit "know-it-all," and often, they are poor at delegating - largely
because they don't trust other people as much as themselves. They also
tend to be bossy, perfectionists and overly-conscientious.
