A Coin Toss

Survival profile

You cannot stay in one place for long. You move somewhere new without resistance and read change as opportunity rather than threat — but often the movement has no clear destination. It keeps you from being trapped anywhere dangerous, and it also denies you the time to build supplies or deep ties. You are alive because you keep moving, and you have accumulated nothing for the same reason. In daily life it shows in how little you own. Moving does not daunt you, your hobbies have turned over several times, and you have few old possessions. You settle into a new neighborhood faster than most. Conversely, you can count on one hand the people you have known ten years or the things you have done for several. Travelling light is a clear advantage. But the people who last a long time are usually also the people with something stored somewhere.

Strength and weakness

The freedom of being tied to nothing pulls you out of danger. That same freedom leaves you with no supplies and no people to draw on. Your instinct for leaving a situation that feels off has saved you more than once. But since you never stayed anywhere long, the list of people you could actually call for help is short.

Advice

• Move Toward Something — Leaving and heading somewhere are different. Decide where you are going once before you set out.
• Keep a Few Threads — You do not have to cut every tie to travel. Two or three people you can still reach changes your odds.
