Your Intrinsic Ambition is
VIGOR
Vigor: Overview
Those driven by VIGOR find deep satisfaction in feeling, strong, active, and healthy, no matter what that takes. They also appreciate the connected nature of humans, though this may be beyond their recognition. This lifestyle, with its close union between connection and body, often allows physical activities to transcend to deeper emotional joy in the form of physical meditation and peace, such as a “runner’s high”. Whether spending time with friends and family, connecting with the earth and nature, or spiritual pursuits such as prayer or meditation, VIGOR driven lifestyles appreciate the value of their emotional needs nearly as much as their physical needs.

Strengths
Often those who live a lifestyle aligned to VIGOR find deep contentment, going to bed each night confident of their healthy lifestyle and place in the world. No matter what life throws at them or what barriers they face on their journey, they face them with confidence thanks to their actively renewing sense of motivation and faith in their deep connections to loved ones and to themselves. Meanwhile, VIGOR drive lifestyles often interweave a love of being active with emotional satisfaction enabling simple physical activities to transcend their physical joys into forms of active meditation and peace.
Challenges
Common challenges for a VIGOR driven lifestyle include often finding mentally fulfilling activities, like writing and problem solving, challenging and taxing. Over time, without mentally challenging activities, these types of activities that frequent our daily lives become harder due to reduced mental stamina. Finding mentally fulfilling activities that complement your VIGOR strengths, such as learning new recipes could improve this. Another frequent challenge faced by those living aligned with VIGOR is the physical and emotional exhaustion due to the intensity of these interests. Being mindful to set aside time to recharge and replenish will keep energy and motivation levels high and stable.
