Personality Test

Eannagram test


For me it was really accurate. I got:
you chose AY - your Enneagram type is EIGHT.

"I must be strong"


Asserters are direct, self-reliant, self-confident, and protective.

How to Get Along with Me

Stand up for yourself... and me.
Be confident, strong, and direct.
Don't gossip about me or betray my trust.
Be vulnerable and share your feelings. See and acknowledge my tender, vulnerable side.
Give me space to be alone.
Acknowledge the contributions I make, but don't flatter me.
I often speak in an assertive way. Don't automatically assume it's a personal attack.
When I scream, curse, and stomp around, try to remember that's just the way I am.
What I Like About Being a Eight

being independent and self-reliant
being able to take charge and meet challenges head on
being courageous, straightforward, and honest
getting all the enjoyment I can out of life
supporting, empowering, and protecting those close to me
upholding just causes
What's Hard About Being a Eight

overwhelming people with my bluntness; scaring them away when I don't intend to
being restless and impatient with others' incompetence
sticking my neck out for people and receiving no appreciation for it
never forgetting injuries or injustices
putting too much pressure on myself
getting high blood pressure when people don't obey the rules or when things don't go right
Eights as Children Often

are sometimes loners
seize control so they won't be controlled
fugure out others' weaknesses
attack verbally or physically when provoked
take charge in the family because they perceive themselves as the strongest, or grow up in difficult or abusive surroundings

I know it fits your field PERFECTLY.

I know mine fits me, but mine isn't nearly as nice.

I wonder what the right profession would be for an "asserter"....

probably directing, actually. Being blunt and controlling seems to work..LOL

Re: Personality Test

Well I suppose you can be assertive, outspoke and NICE too.

My casts always make fun of me for how blunt I can be and my occasional outburts "DO YOU READ THE SCRIPT?!?!" but I know they love me... The one person I've directed the most asked me to assistant direct his senior project, so I can't be THAT awful to be around.
