Always thinking ahead and see what i can prepare or complete. And the there an other kind of people, that does the exact opposite. Always wait until they really have to do something, to be able to take the next step. (i mean, maybe one don't have to do it, if one waits long enough) These two kinds of people doesn't play together very well
