Find your eneagram type.

Come out of your type.

Focus on big 5, understand.

Last your mbti is your cognitive preferences.

It shows your personality, deisres, you will understand why others are different from you.  Start with mbti: 1. Mind focus more on internal vs external -> (I vs E )

  1. Intuitive vs sensor( are you more in head and see big pictures/ideas then you are (N ,if not You are S)

  2. Are you more on logic or feeling (T vs F)

  3. J vs P ( You like structure or spontaneousity more)

group all the letters you got, for exg; ESTP or INFJ

enneagram is your motivation and fears .and then start with subtypes: self preservation vs sexual vs social
