0:00 Intro
0:55 The angle of your signature
2:10 The size of your signature
3:19 The legibility
4:04 Full name or initials?
4:40 Embellishments

Hi Vanessa, I absolutely love your channel - its like Shrine of Education and you being the Saint of Education. Actually, both perceptions are true how I feel. Every thing about the signatures scince are totally true in my case as an upwardly signiture style and also, the many people's signiture types I know of. At age 50, I still attend Financial Education Courses while an active fresh Member of a prestigious Toastmasters Club. Life has blessed me with many successes for which I have worked really hard, made sacrifices and traveled continents in order to have better life for my children, my family myself, my friends, and humanity in general. Like all your other priceless contents/materials I watched, this is another masterpiece; I can't even tell you to keep up the good work because Saints don't need to be reminded of that, it's in their nature and its what's they do. Huge respect Saint Education - Vanessa. Umer.

First, I'm left handed. How does that play into signature analysis, or handwriting analysis in general? Remember that the sides of our hands always run across the ink/graphite, which impacts the direction of writing, regardless of personality. Second, I have a client who takes up three signature spaces with her circled initials. So she's an independent and complicated narcissist, who doesn't care if she interferes with other people's need to sign after her.

The signature is the personality on parade, not the personality itself. What's important to remember is that while it may signify how they feel about themselves, what you see isn't what you get if the regular writing is different.

I also want to add to the topic that over the years, a person's signature can change a bit or a lot. Take me- my signature has changed a lot over the years with the changes in my life! Previously my signature showed less confidence (as per ur study) but now it shows hell of confidence! Might be because i'm now totally self sufficient, successful & indipendent! Also i'm happy. My signature is clear, medium sized, straight & full but with big capitals.

every time I write my signature it changes. Forgers wouldn't have to work very hard to forge my sig, SOMETHING IMPORTANT to note, is when you get a new passport (at least in the US) you HAVE to replicate your signature across all documents you sign or they won't accept the paperwork! So if you are like me and have a variable signature, and you have a passport update or replacement, practice your signature.
