Answer the following question to get a feel for your Enneagram type. Identify which of the following you fear the most, then notice if one or both of the Enneagram types on either side of that are your second and third top fears…
- Being evil or corrupt so you strive to be good and perfect.
- Being unloved or unwanted by others so you make sure you are needed and are a
people pleaser. - Being unaccomplished or worthless so you are driven to excel.
- Not having a unique identity so you strive to be different and significant.
- Being helpless or inadequate so you withdraw from others.
- Being in danger without guidance or support so you are hypervigilant and scan for
perceived threats - Being in emotional pain or being deprived of fun so you keep yourself occupied
with an endless array of fun activities. - Being controlled by others, powerless or being annihilated so you seek power and
the ability to control your environment. - Being abandoned or separated from others so you merge with others’ needs.
This is both your greatest opportunity for growth. It’s also your greatest strength.
