Those with which he works best are lands, forests, the sea, the plains, the mountains and certain kinds of mechanical things. Instead of combining things and people in his work, like the Alimentive; machines and people, like the Muscular; or people only, like the Thoracic, the Osseous must not only confine himself almost exclusively to working with things, but he must work with them away from the interference or interruption or superintendence of other people. Capitalizes His Independence Instinct The Osseous, like other types, succeeds in work which automatically brings into play his basic instincts. His fundamental instinct is that of _independence_. He never succeeds signally in any line of work in which this instinct is repressed or thwarted.
