Your first name of Poteat has made you versatile and creative. Although you have many friends, you tend to lose interest in people very quickly. You may gamble or be drawn to quick investments but not to those ventures that require years to build. Your name makes you an intense person with a need for constructive outlets through creative expression; otherwise you could be driven to indulgence as an escape. Your name makes it difficult for you to settle down, to assume your responsibilities, and to make progress through conscientious, step-by-step effort. You are quick-minded and imaginative, and find it difficult to appreciate those who think in a slower, methodical way. New friends bring the appeal of new experiences, but emotional involvements can over-ride prudence and discretion. You could do well in sales work or in meeting the public where quickness of mind and expression are all important. Out of your quick thinking has been borne hasty speech. Acting on impulse instead of with forethought has led to many disappointments and bitter experiences.
