Their work is of all-consuming importance to many of those ambitious individuals born on this day. Yet their ambition is rarely of the type to demand personal glory or spectacular financial rewards, but is instead the natural product of their perfectionism. October 28 individuals are inquisitive types who are determined to use the fruits of their discoveries to move forward into uncharted waters.
Fascinated with deconstruction and reconstruction, the meticulous attention to detail and logical turn of mind give October 28 people remarkable potential to make pioneering contributions to the world. Because they are extremely tenacious and focused, they are typically absorbed in their endeavors—indeed, when others regard them as having reached the pinnacle of their success, they will remain unsatisfied, believing that their task remains uncompleted and that progress can still be made.
Their independent inclinations endow those born on this day with the capacity to break new ground in any area that excites their interest, particularly in the realms of science and technology. Although they are fueled by their desire to benefit others, and are firm but fair leaders, their concern is often of the more abstract, humanitarian variety rather than emotion- ally based. Their propensity to immerse themselves in their intellectual or professional interests make them rather solitary figures, whose love and loyalty is gen- uine: however, those closest to them may not always realize this, since they are not given to expressing their affection openly.
