: I would say that what you say about him knowing about this eight role : is more a six thing, because male 6w7 often resembles eights. If he was : an eight I don't think he would go as far as admitting anything, because : he would not see it himself. And when you talk about the passive-agressive : sixes, thats nines. Or some phobic sixes. But not the counterphobics. : BUT all this is stupid of me to write, because the way I see it is a : 5 minute (real world) conversation the only way to decide. : I think the easiest way to type someone is when they are in a stressed : situation, and they defence mecansim-s begins to show. : Talking of military, I belive it's a few ENTJ and a lot ESTJ supervisors there : that loves to give orders and hate reciving them, that's the ones : I would call eight's. : : The NLP system is a guide to how you should become a 3 the way I see it. : Myself I haven't found anything to gain in the NLP system, what's the : point of becoming more in-autentic. : : The only intresting part in it the way I see it is the way it can identify : if someone uses an Audio-digital, Audio, kinestic or Visual preference. : This should be possible to identify by looking at how someone uses their eyes. : I also belive there is poosible to collorate this to jungian functions. : Meaning you can actually see if someone is using introverted functions, : you should also be able to pinpoint the exact function. : To put it to the MBTI I belive the link is something like this... : NT -Visual, but some are also a bit audective (right-brain dominace) : NF -Visual, but some are also a bit audective (right-brain dominace) : It's strange but, many creative musicans and writers are mostly visual. : SOme visuals, are very sensitive to sensations, and I guess most : hypersensetive people fit in here. When talking hypersensetivety, I mean : sensetive to sensory owerload. : SJ -Audective (left-brain dominace)(these are the best at scool) : Learns and remember in a taperecorder way, one thing after the other. : Because our scools are Audective with pure memoration, the visuals : and kinestics are the ones that suffers most in scool.
: SP -Kinestic (left-dominace)(these are the ones that beat's you in bowling) : This are all my ungrounded hunces, but I belive them to be quite true. : If you want proof's go look for it. : After reading all this you should belive that f.ex the visual is best at : finding errors in writing like this, but that's wrong. That's the Audective . : A clear proof of this is dyslectics that about always are visual and not audective... : Of course, the Kinestic is best at sports and the visual best at creative things. : Based on this I belive there should be possible to do a link of this to the : enneagram. : Your man Christy, should be good at remembering names and things you have said : wordly right (like a tape recorder). But bad at faces and remembering things : visually. : Since you are a four I would guess you are the oposite of this. : Let's say that you was at a place an talked to some people, I would say : you would be best at describing the place you visited, while he would be best : at saying the names at those you talked to and maybe remeber a sentence : or two from the conversation. You on the other hand would be good at remembering : their faces. : : Any hit rate at all ? : : (hopes this sounds better than the two times I have given book rewiews in class : whitout reading the book) : Now, I am fed up and don't bother to write more. (Did someone say- thanks ?) : Hope not...:) I was going to take a summer class at Loyola Univ about NLP/Enneagram, but I found out about it too late to register. Maybe next summer. I wish I knew more about NLP. I've taken left-brain, right brain tests and scored very left brained. Only missed 2 on the left brain IQ test. Visual? I can't remember faces, auditory? I can't remember names either. But I can rehash the whole event as to what I felt, what other's reactions were, why they reacted that way, and tear the whole situation down for you. My husband - he's more detail oriented over all and can remember faces better than I can as well as names. After thought ----- I have a strange habit of losing color swatches for the paints I've used in redecorating my house. Then I have to go to the store with absolutely nothing - just with an idea of what color it is, and I always pick out the same exact color in a different brand. I think that's an intuitive function though. The process of visualization is hidden and more connected to the feelings that color gave me. I know that in order for me to learn or remember anything I have to "see" it written. I guess I am visual - but more in a linguistic way. Any of the 4s - what colors and music do you prefer? I ended up painting half my house in this color "angelic white" which is soft spiritual blue before I knew that blue is a meditative color. My favorite composer is Chopin.
