Although it may seem that she is just patiently plodding along, Tippi Hedren is actually quite shrewd and has a clear purpose in mind. She is far more astute and ambitious than her rather gentle, forbearing manner (described in the previous chapter) would suggest.
Serious, disciplined and quietly ambitious, she is driven to prove herself and to achieve material accomplishments and success. Her work, her position in the world, and her contributions to society are very important to Hedren. Tippi Hedren will persevere through enormous hardship and frustration in order to reach a goal she has set for herself, and she often sacrifices much in the area of personal relationships and home life in order to do so.
Tippi Hedren has a thoughtful, quiet and self-contained disposition and does not readily show her inner feelings and needs. Tippi Hedren seems to always be in control, capable, efficient and strong. She is often the person in the family or group who is given more responsibility (and more work) than the others. She is highly conscientious and even as a child she possessed great maturity, soberness, and worldly wisdom.
She is basically a pragmatic realist, and though she may have all sorts of dreams, ideals and colorful theories, she feels that the ultimate test of a concept is its practical usefulness. Tippi has an innate shrewdness and business sense, and there is a bit of the cynic in her as well.
She is clear-headed, detached and objective, and is not swayed by emotional dramatics. She is often authoritarian - strictly fair, but without mercy. Tippi Hedren has a great respect for tradition and even if she does not agree with certain laws, she will abide by them or strive to change them, but never flagrantly disregard them. Cautious and conservative, Tippi Hedren plays by the rules.
She is subtle, understated, quiet, deep, not easy to get to know intimately, and never superficial. She is a modest person and sometimes overly self-critical. Giving herself (and others) permission to feel, play, be spontaneous and silly, and sometimes weak and vulnerable is not easy for Hedren.
Hedren's strong points are her depth and thoroughness, patience, tenacity and faithfulness. Her faults are a tendency to be rigid and inflexible, and too serious.
Her career, reputation, and public image are very important to Hedren. Tippi Hedren has a strong desire to be influential or make her mark on the world. The merely personal sphere does not satisfy her; her ambitions include making a major contribution and receiving broad recognition for her unique effort and gifts. Tippi Hedren may undervalue the personal or inner side of life.
She keeps her feelings well under control, but is inclined to feel inferior and insecure. Hedren displays a cool and reserved manner and tries to hide her inner discontentment. Tippi Hedren also has a tendency to cling to the past.
Her vitality is very strong and she is likely to be a workaholic. If Tippi Hedren is not careful, she may work so hard that she becomes exhausted, leaving herself open to physical breakdown. Tippi Hedren also has a strong drive to win and to dominate others.
