You are someone who has had two teachers that have greatly influenced your life. A nature, and a nurture. Your nurture teacher has trained you to be a performer, someone who is very creative and can work their way to the top of any social situation, relying on others when you fall short. Your nature teacher has trained you to thrive and survive on your own within the depths of mother nature, always knowing where to go and how to survive in the worst of conditions, relying on your own brute force and natural ability. These conflicting ideologies work as a yin and yang, becoming the two major driving forces within your life. In any given situation, these teachers may appear within your mind, each fighting against the other one for control over your actions.

Suggested Characteristics
Successful students of split philosophies have to be able to capture and hold an audience’s attention, so they tend to have flamboyant or forceful personalities much of the time. Other times they have to rely on their stoic nature and wilderness intelligence to ensure they can keep themselves and others around them safe.
