  • Pragmatic

Pragmatic

Definition: concerned with practical considerations and consequences; related to matters of fact

Balancing Quality: Idealistic

Comment: Some pragmatists would say anything beyond the material or economic facts of life are not worth concerning oneself with. We all show our range of reality. You cannot expect anyone to value qualities not applicable to their view.
