Blind spot: overestimating authority’s power.

Growth: learning to trust self & others.

Vice: Fear

Virtue: courage.

Style: troubleshooting & overcoming obstacles. Concerned about finding certainty. Great in a turnaround.

Conflicts: can act like a wet blanket during times of expansion. Can frustrate best case scenarios & Threes who promote a winning image.

Appearance: radiates a nervous energy, comfort rather than style.

Facial expression: hyper-alert, scanning look

Speech: cautious, puts limits, protected.

Gift: responsible, dependable, trustworthy, and loyal to what is lawful.

Works best where there are clear lines of authority & defined problems, where honesty & asking hard questions are valued: university classroom, auditing, investigative work.

Problems in places with ambiguous guidelines, and behind-the-scenes wheeling and dealing.

What I Like About Being a SIX

Being committed and faithful to family and friends

Being responsible and hardworking

Being compassionate toward others

Having intellect and wit

Being a nonconformist

Confronting danger bravely

Being direct and assertive

What’s hard about being a SIX

The constant push and pull involved in trying to make up my mind

Procrastinating because of fear of failure; having little confidence in myself

Fearing being abandoned or taken advantage of

Exhausting myself by worrying and scanning for danger

Wishing I had a rule book at work so I could do everything right

Being too critical of myself when I haven’t lived up to my expectations
