Your name of Benedikt gives you a strong urge for independence. Preferring the simple life, you are content to forego the comforts and amenities that many people regard as essential. Once you get an idea, you forge ahead, despite obstacles, until you reach the end of your project. You are not easily influenced by the opinions and actions of others and can be depended upon for assistance. A physically active person, you have an appreciation for outdoor recreation, which you prefer to pursue on your own or with one or two close friends who share the same affinity for the peace of nature and the physical challenges it provides. Yet, when they get to know you, they realize you are loyal in friendships and would go to any length to help someone in need. From early in life, you have asserted your individuality, learning through your own experiences, relying upon your ingenuity and practical creativity to accomplish your objectives. Under circumstances when others are expressive, you feel inferior because of your inability to communicate your deeper thoughts and feelings. The health weaknesses due to the influence of this name could cause you to suffer either with headaches, weak eyes, sinus problems, lung and bronchial disorders such as asthma or emphysema, or a heart condition. You work best where you can combine physical labour and prefer to work where you can spend time outdoors.
