25. Using the 3 Instincts in Your Work: Self-Pres, Sexual, and Social [Enneagram Groups Series]

Even if you don't yet know your Enneagram Type, narrowing down your Dominant Instinct can still tell you SO much about yourself (instead of 9, there's just 3 options...but when you overlay it with types that means there's actually 27 Types!)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀And it be a tremendous help in understanding where others are coming from - their values, focus, and natural tendencies (it may seem like they're trying to drive you crazy on purpose, but it's most likely that thing that is such a no brainer to you might not come so naturally for them or even be on their radar).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Each comes from evolution:> Self Preservation - keeping yourself alive> Sexual/Intimate - keeping the species alive> Social - exists in higher intelligence species, keeping the herd/community alive⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀And in modern society, they still impact how we show up and respond to the world around us.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀There's so much they can tell you, including what type of offers are going to be most aligned with your natural preferences and skills. If there's currently something on your website you're not absolutely stoked to be offering, this might help.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀At the end of the day you're a complex human being, not boxed by any type, but this will give insight into ways to make money that both align with your passions and your skills.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀All 3 are inside of you. Here's how each one plays out:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Dominant:Comes most natural and influences how our Enneagram Number expresses itself.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Secondary:Functions a bit more neutrally.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Neglected:Falls out of view and requires intentional growth.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀As you move through your self-growth journey all will be integrated and used to be your healthiest and most fulfilled self.Have a request for a future episode?
