One little success story of mine which I must tell you about, concerns Royal Office Products of New York. They once took a big chance on my analysis of an applicant's writing.

His name was Harry Benson, in fact, and he was after an executive job, and he was a person they would never have taken on otherwise... because he cam across very badly orally and in his appearance.

However, on the strength of my interpretation of his writing, they took him on and now, only a few years later, he's already President of the company.

I'd like now to turn to doodling because most of us doodle away merrily, quite absentmindedly, and hear what you have to say about that.

Oh, you can tell a great deal about people from their doodles as well as their handwriting, The doodle to my mind, is a message straight from the subconscious. The reason you are feeling the way you are is always written in your doodles.

Can you give us some indication of what you mean? Take for example, very angular or tangled horizontal lines, now if a person when doodling does a lot of them, it is very indicative of hidden anger and frustration.

Arrows when drawn stand for ambition, and when they are aimed in a lot of different directions, this will mean confusion in reaching goals.

Before we started the programme, I happened to be doodling on this pad here. What does that tell you about me? That's if you can repeat it.

Well, let me see. You've drawn a very detailed and symmetrical design which tells me, superficially at any rate, that you are a very orderly and rather precise person, a conformist if you like, who doesn't like chaos and has to have everything planned.
