Handwriting: Michael Moore's signature

Handwriting of Michael Moore

Michael Moore’s signature is incredibly dynamic in every way.

Notice how the direction of Michael’s signature is dramatically upward. This indicates his positive mental attitude and his feeling that things are going to work out well, regardless of the circumstances.

Michael’s large capital ‘M’ indicates his confidence. The wide loop in his capital ‘M’ indicates his incredible capacity for responsibility. Just as he is holding the world, Michael will shoulder the world in relation to responsibility without hesitation. The flat-bottom loop in the capital ‘M’ indicates Michael’s need to excel and to best his personal best.

The v-wedges at the base of all the letters indicates Michael’s drive to achieve. The corresponding upper v-wedges in his letters indicates his equally strong drive to be in control of his life, his destiny and his decisions: This is a man who will never be ‘told what to do’.

The descending portions of Michael’s capital ‘M’ indicate diplomacy: He’s a man who easily can gain the cooperation of others: People do what Michael asks because they really like him!

His needle-pointed ‘r’ in his family name indicates his sharp mental perceptions.

The large size of his script indicates he is people oriented, big picture oriented and has a personality that ‘shines’ naturally.

Michael is a truly dynamic man!

Handwriting: Zacks Logo

Handwriting and Zacks Logo!

A handwritten logo conveys the personality of a company just as clearly as a signature conveys the personality of the writer. The handwritten logo also implies the type of person who will visit and shop at the store or the company as a customer or client.

Zacks is a clothing company with a bold, dynamic logo. The dynamism of their logo suggests the type of dynamic woman, full of confidence and panache, who is attracted to their stores and who buys their clothing.

The Zacks logo is a print-writing that is very well integrated (the letters look like they ‘belong’ together) indicating the woman who shops at Zacks has above-average intelligence.

The capital ‘Z’ on the logo is tall, indicating excellent confidence in the woman who shops at Zacks; the great width of the logo indicates the women shopping at Zacks have a strong sense of self or ‘ego’, and like themselves.

The hook at the beginning of the capital ‘Z’ indicates the woman who shops at Zacks wants to acquire nice things for herself and has the drive and desire to achieve.

The ‘a’ in the logo is absolutely clear, suggesting Zacks customers to be honest, frank and clear in their intentions and their tastes. The slightly tucked-in hook within the ‘a’ indicates a Zack customer will be someone who deals with issues on her own time and on her own terms, and who will not discuss an issue until she is more than ready to do so.

The k-buckle in the Zacks logo has the buckle of the letter ending higher than the tops of the lower-case letters, indicating ‘defiance’. Therefore, a Zacks customer is likely someone who needs to be her own authority figure and does not take kindly to being told what to do.

The printed ‘s’ in the Zacks logo indicates the woman who shops at Zacks is someone who is a constructive thinker.

The bold underscore under the Zacks logo indicates the customers who shop at Zacks and the people who work at Zacks are extremely self-reliant.

Handwriting: Top 7 Dynamic Sales Qualities

Top 7 Qualities of a Dynamic Sales Person from the Strokes of Handwriting

Handwriting reflects dynamism in writing, especially in relation to sales. Employers giving each potential job candidate a few blank sheets of paper and requesting their candidate to write some of their long/short term goals will gain a wealth of information to more closely target their questions to both candidates and references. Using the qualities below, employers will also be able to see if these very dynamic tendencies are within their candidates strokes of writing!

1. Enthusiasm: Seen in long t-bars (longer than the ‘usual’ length of a t-bar in crossing a t-stem). Your candidate’s enthusiasm will give them added energy to apply to tasks and projects and, in addition, make them ‘people magnets’ because of their natural charisma inherent in this enthusiasm stroke. They will be natural leaders because they’ll throw themselves into what they do 100% and others will wish to be a part of it.
2. Optimism: Seen in lines of writing that move gently uphill on the page, and within t-bars that also move up on the page. Candidates who have these qualities in their handwriting will have a positive mental attitude that will help through any highs and lows.
3. Fluidity: Seen in joined t-bars to the next letter and any figure-8 strokes in g’s, s’s or f’s. Fluidity of mind will enhance your candidate’s communication ability, and help them ‘flow verbally’ around problems and objections. This fluidity will make your candidate an excellent troubleshooter because they’ll be able to change the subject or smooth over difficult topics without the other party realizing what they’re doing.
4. Confidence: Look for high capital letters in your candidate’s writing (about 2 ½ times the height of the lower case letters). Evidence of such confidence in your candidate’s writing should enhance their self-esteem and improve their quantity of sales.
5. Initiative: Look for v-wedges in the mid-portion of your candidate’s h’s and k’s, and possibly in the letter t’s that occur at the end of a word. A candidate with initiative will not want to wait too long for anything, but will want to go after whatever needs to be done. Those who retrace the centre portion of these letters will prefer to opt for the tried and true rather than take too much of a risk.
6. Persistence: Look for tie loops in your candidate’s t-bars as well as star-shapes in the t-bars for someone who won’t give up until every scenario has been explored.
7. Able to work independently: Look for stick-like downstrokes in some or all of your candidate’s y’s and g’s. These ‘loner strokes’ reflect someone who does their best work independently and who has leadership and managerial skills.

Handwriting: Tim Hortons logo

Handwriting and Tim Hortons Logo!

Handwriting tells a very tall tale where business logos are handwritten or a certain script is used for the logo.

Tim Hortons has a positive logo with an abundance of dynamic qualities.

The slant of the logo is forward, suggesting the company has a desire to reach out to others, and really cares about the service they give. The baseline of their logo is steady, indicating the company is reliable, dependable and sincere.

The t-bar in both ‘Tim’ and ‘Hortons’ is firm, suggesting firm willpower, projecting the company has similar strong willpower.

The very rounded i-dot in ‘Tim’ indicates loyalty toward the company and toward their customers. The close i-dot to the i-stem suggests the company cares deeply about detail.

The ‘star’ in the capital ‘H’ of ‘Hortons’ indicates tenacity: This suggests the company will not give up until every possible aspect of a scenario has been explored.

The greek ‘e’ against the ‘r’ in ‘Hortons’ indicates a love of learning and challenge, and a need for harmony, indicating similar qualities in the company.

The deep v-wedges in the m’s and n’s within the logo indicate the company to be extremely analytical in their research and approach to what they do. The corresponding upper wedge in the ‘m’ and ‘n’ suggests ‘investigative’ ability, and projects that the company will trail-blaze rather than being directed by what other companies do.

The sharpy-pointed letter ‘s’ in ‘Hortons’ indicates steadfastness to a course once the company has it set.

The t-bar being in the upper portion of the t-stem in ‘Hortons’ indicates the company will not hesitate to set high goals.

The letters of the logo all being connected suggests the company has a logical, sequential mind-set and suggests a good ability to solve problems!

Handwriting: Sensitivity Enhanced with Other Fears

Handwriting: Sensitivity to Criticism Enhanced with other Fear Strokes

As discussed in my last Blog, Sensitivity to Criticism is a common fear trait, primarily seen in writing where there are fairly large loops on the stems of the ‘t’ and ‘d’. Sensitivity can be enhanced when other fear or defensive traits are seen within the writing together with the wider loops in the t’s and d’s.

For example, sensitivity seen in far forward slanted writing that also has a heavy pen pressure suggests someone with deep feelings and strong emotions … hurts caused by criticism in such a person will leave enduring effects.

Sensitivity seen in a writing that slants leftward indicates someone who may protect themselves by criticism by withdrawing into themselves.

Sensitivity seen in a writing where the strokes of the m’s and n’s are tightly retraced suggests the person is so fearful of expressing his thoughts that he will inwardly hold hurts caused by criticism tightly to himself, in time resulting in stress which could conceivably cause health issues.

Similarly, sensitivity seen in a writing that contains ‘secretiveness’ (rightward ovals within letters such as ‘o’) indicates an individual who wants to express his ideas but is fearful of doing so.

A person who is extremely sensitive to criticism may well attempt to protect himself with deceit (double looping within oval letters), vanity (extremely tall t- and d-stems), or other traits.

It is within social contacts that a person prone to sensitivity to criticism suffers most. Such a person’s success in relating to others can well depend on their ability to defend themselves against this fear. Pride (seen in t-stems that are approximately twice the height of the lower case letters) can mask hurt feelings, for a person who is proud would rather ‘suffer’ than disclose that they have been hurt.

If a sensitive person becomes defensive and, in this defensive mode verbally strikes back at those he feels are criticizing him, he may cause others such discomfort that they don’t want to be near him and will actively avoid him!

Handwriting: Sensitivity to Criticism

Handwriting: Sensitivity to Criticism

Sensitivity to Criticism is evident in handwriting. Sensitivity to criticism is a common fear trait, acquired through continued disapproval and also nurtured by recurring hurts or rejection.

If you as a child met with frequent criticism, especially from those whose good opinion you valued or desired, your self-image may have deteriorated to the point where you have formed a habit of imagining unfavourable attitudes where in truth none exist.

The sensitivity discussed here is produced when there is repeated damage to a person’s ego that results in the person having a continuing fear of hurts, even imagined ones. This type of person may well have the habit of imagining unfavourabe attitudes where in truth none exist.

It is ironic that as much as sensitive people need assurance through praise, they often deprive themselves of it by refusing to enter into situations where there is even a chance they will encounter criticism. In a sense, they have their ears plugged to avoid hearing words of disapproval, and, in the process, they don’t hear words of praise, either!

The primary indication of sensitivity to criticism in handwriting is where there are the loops in the stems of ‘t’ and ‘d’ letters (letters which do not have looped stems in standard script). T’s and d’s embody pride and the elements of self-esteem. A loop, no matter where it occurs in writing, is imagination. When added to a ‘t’ or ‘d’ stem, this indicates a real or imagined view on the part of the writer of what other people think about their ideas, habits or actions. The more inflated the looped stems, the greater their fear of and sensitivity to criticism is.

Celebrity Handwriting: Alfred Hitchcock

Celebrity Signature: Alfred Hitchcock

Showmanship is clearly evident in the signature of Alfred Hitchcock with his profile above his name; it’s every bit as distinctive as the candelabra above Liberace’s signature.

Notice the bold underscore under the signature. This underscore signifies strong self-reliance. The loop at the end of the underscore is an additional flair.

The first and last name of the signature is joined, indicating fluidity of mind. This is evidence of talent both in writing and conveying his ideas to others. The capital ‘A’ is open at the top, further indicating Alfred Hitchcock’s ability to convey and share his ideas and thoughts with others.

The signature itself moves strongly upward on the page, indicating strong optimism. The high t-bar in his family name indicates Alfred’s high goals and further indicates he had no fear of stretching way out of his ‘comfort zone’ to achieve his goals.

The straight downstroke in the mid-point of the signature indicates strong determination. The ‘harpoon’ v-shape attached to the downstroke indicates ‘aggressiveness’, or the drive to go after what he wanted in life.

There is an ‘energy’ to this signature that indicates the energy, drive and charisma of the writer. All the letters are joined, indicating Alfred Hitchcock’s logical, sequential mind and his ability to solve problems.

The retraced letter ‘l’ in his first name indicates Mr. Hitchcock was quite particular about his ideas. The ‘pinched’ letter ‘o’ in his first and his family name suggests he was someone who did far more for others than he realized.

A talented signature denoting a very talented man!
