It's just a test.
>I know, but I can't help but wonder about the logic of how a test comes up with their answer. I am the type who would watch children's science shows because I am curious to know how it works and why does it work. LOL
By understanding our own complexities is a good place to begin I feel.
The key to the enneagram and all it's wisdom is in the self reflection and I find that answering the questions in itself pretty revelatory!
> I agree, I realized how I am when it came to team, cooperative and independent. I realized that my style of team work where I feel most comfortable is when the teacher leave us alone and allow us to divide the project to where each person can do their independent part and allow us to bring it together. How am I going to make it in the work world if I prefer to be independent and void of dealing with messy chaos that comes with humans trying to do a project together and think their ideas is best.
Find your own path. We must all figure out who we are and where we choose to fit in to the world and NO ONE can make that descision for us.
You also scored high in Five...
> Yes, that was nice. I know I am too outgoing and funny to be a Five though.
> > TRUE!
> > I liked that when asked about leadership (unlike other tests) I was given the option to define my leadership style. Not just " Are you a Leader or a Follower" type question-no destinction! We can all lead at certain times in our lives-or day for that matter.
> What is the answer to your leadership style and what type are you?
Bossy! I tend to try and dominate especially when it is a creative situation. I find it hard to have conflict and comprimise when it comes to my ideas and visions so I will just do it my way...so I guess trail blaze.
I've been personally studying and applying the eeneagram for six years now and I THINK and FEEL that I am a Self Preservational four with both wings...but sometimes I will explore the eight and the six and the two just to get another feel for it all. I find it helpful to walk around for a few weeks or months questioning myself as to whether i have found my style or whether I have been so deeply entranced that I have been deluding myself. But I'm pretty certain now after discovering the sub-types.
