Personality Profile For Alan Watts

Alan Watts

The following is a personality profile of Alan Watts based on his work.

Alan Watts is unconventional.

He is empathetic, he feels what others feel and is compassionate towards them. He is intermittent as well: he has a hard time sticking with difficult tasks for a long period of time. But, Alan Watts is also proud: he holds himself in high regard, satisfied with who he is.
