Your name of Yanli gives you independence and determination. You have known misunderstandings and a tendency to jealousy and moods of depression. Usually, you would prefer to develop your own business or work for someone who realizes your strengths. Nothing intimidates you once you make up your mind. Lavish affection tends to embarrass you, yet often you desire to be natural, and to seek affection and understanding from those closest to you. You are an active person, with an appreciation for outdoor activities, either on your own or with one or two close friends who share the same affinity for nature and the challenges it provides. You work best alone making your own decisions as it is not always easy for you to respond to the advice and direction of others as you feel the need to be in control. You express yourself in as few words as possible and often choose silence rather than idle chatter. You work best where you can combine physical labour with mental activity. Living much within your own thoughts and finding it challenging to communicate easily with others, you are, at times, too candid and honest in your assessment of situations.
