I enjoy observing and noticing details and coming up with solutions or outcomes from the observation or noticing of the details.
Is anyone else like that too??
In what do you make it useful?? I use it in social situations to know who to stay away from and all and how to react to others depending on their true intentions, I also think it can be very useful for a detective or a general.

I very much recognise this, but the situations to which it applies are different for me. I often find it useful in my daily work (mathematics and programming). Sometimes, it also turns against me. This happens when an observation of a detail becomes an obsession. Then I tend to loose my overview.

Yes.. This is in part what I am paid to do as a graphic designer.

Part of my job is finding the main ideas in a fairly disorganized jumble of notes and arranging them in a visual hierarchy that reinforces the ideas my employers are trying to communicate. Observing detail, pattern and structure are central to this process.]

Sometimes you have to pull back and simplify or you can be faulted for being over analytical That's the hard part.

It tires me too when I'm observing something and I get too obsessed with it.

I agree with that too.

I guess everything need observation and noticing for the person to calculate the info they have and come up with a solution, I guess its what you like you're going to pay more attention to and look for anything in it to notice until you get something.
