Your first name of Ana-Piedad gives you the desire for success and financial accumulation and the confidence and drive to go after your ambitions, regardless of obstacles. This inability to express sympathy or understanding in a tactful way causes feelings of frustration to well within you at times. Many friendships are lost because of your directness. You start new endeavours and incorporate new ideas, but seldom if ever receive the full benefits and financial accumulation for your efforts. Being extremely independent and capable, you learn through your own experiences and you like to work on your own or in a position where you are responsible for making decisions and directing the efforts of others. Excessive affection embarrasses you and you do not appreciate being the target for endearing words, not that you do not value them, but your self-conscious traits make it difficult for you to know how to respond. Once you commit yourself, you are dependable and persevering. Your thinking revolves around business and ways of making money, rather than on music, art, drama, or philosophy. Those in close association complain that you are not inclined to observe and return acts of kindness, compassion, or affection. You would be a firm parent and your children would be well-disciplined, but you would find it difficult to get close to them and to show compassion and affection.
