Benjamin Pajak lives in the here-and-now, constantly obeying his impulses. He is guided by a fire burning within him. He rarely heed the warnings of reflection and reason; instead, he listens to his instincts, as if his unconscious were perpetually emerging. This is the source of his spontaneity and passion. Because he is continually being born, he champions all phenomena symbolic of birth: breaking ground, beginning, clearing. He has little interest for pursuing the new ideas he brought into being, because his inner flame is always urging him to move on quickly to the next innovation. He is not a good manager. He is straightforward. When he commits himself, he does so with mind, body, and soul. Restraint and moderation are concepts which are totally foreign to him, because he lives by the fullness of his instinct, the force of his desire. Due to his energetic temperament, his determination immediately invents the action necessary to fulfill his desires. It goes without saying that his attitude engenders certain risks. Sometimes his impetuousness, or a lack of maturity or patience, or a keen appetite for experience leads him into a blind alley. But risk is a part of his life. Since his fervor is immune to calculation, second thoughts, and cunning, he has no fear. He is the type of hero whose courageous deeds are difficult to distinguish from acts of bravado or of sheer foolhardiness. His top priority is to take action, immediately. Delay is torture to him. He is in a hurry to live, to take his urges and impulses to their ultimate conclusion, even though his lack of forethought may actually make his goal take longer to accomplish. He rarely evaluates obstacles objectively: instead, he dashes into the fray, bristling with determination, oblivious to the size or scope of the difficulties. He rides home triumphantly, whether he has battered his head against a brick wall or met no resistance whatsoever. But he has a true hero’s courage and vitality. He is undaunted by challenges and real danger, to the surprise of outside observers. Like everyone, he sometimes experiences failure. But he rarely despair or become overly discouraged by it; it never overcomes his. He doesn’t see it as a tragedy; he just figures he missed that time, but next time, he won’t. In fact, he’ll muster even more strength and power for the next attack, since he is convinced he can succeed. He sometimes has problems finishing something he has started
