Temperament Type Three

They think and feel with the community. They want to be competent, productive, accomplished and dynamic. More importantly, they want to be good at what they do and to look good doing it. They see themselves as ambitious, competitive and industrious. They would like others to see they as a winner with all the trappings of success. Their idealized image is that they are triumphant and victorious.

They depend too much on external signs of spiritual success. They are goal oriented - someone who lives by the motto “Why do when they can overdo!” To say that they are self-confident, ambitious and motivated may be an understatement. They want to be seen as the very example of the person who has it all together and is on the way to the top. They take great pleasure in crossing tasks off their ‘to do’ lists after quickly finishing them. They may even write down a task on their list that is already completed just so they can enjoy the sense of accomplishment they feel when they cross it off.

They may often have really rough mid-life crises. This is because they are concerned about having prestige and status. They quickly adapt to whatever role is expected of they. Seeking success through appearances, they are likely to place continuous pressure on themselves to maintain an enviable image. They do this by controlling their emotions, being efficient and maintaining a focused single-minded attitude. A natural born performer, try to do their best and to be a star at what ever they attempt.

At times, they may be playing to an invisible audience. Continuously seeking attention and admiration. They aren’t afraid to showcase or promote their talents and ambitions. As there is no second best for they, they keep trying until they reach their goal. They strive for and often develop finesse. Their high level of self-confidence, enthusiasm and energy tends to rub off on everyone around they. Their positive attitude is often motivating to others. Always on the go and energized by starting new projects, they can achieve a great deal but are also at risk of burning out. As soon as they reach one goal, they are on to the next.

Why aren’t all people with a given Temperament Type successful?

You probably know a bunch of people with the same Temperament Type. Why are some successful and others are not. Why the difference? The difference is Emotional Intelligence. We use Emotional Quotient. (EQ) as a shorthand to describe Emotional Intelligence.

A person may have a high IQ. They did well in school, maybe have a college diploma or even an advanced degree. They may even be in MENSA, the select high-IQ club and still fail in business and relationships. Why are they not successful?

The answer:

Your IQ determines 20 % of your success, which leaves 80% to other forces. This is stated by Daniel Goleman the Author of “Emotional Intelligence.”

A person with a high IQ does not mean they know how to manage their thoughts and feelings any more successfully than a person with a low IQ. Success requires taking the emotional data, making sense of that data, and integrating it into your decision-making. People with higher EQ does this better.

By increasing your EQ you can use your thoughts and emotions of your Temperament Type to make the best possible decisions. Increased EQ help you get optimal results from your relationships with yourself and others.

EQ challenges the conventional belief that emotions are in the way of good decisions. By increasing your EQ it is possible to learn how to use your emotions to make better decisions. By increasing your EQ, it is possible to increase your wisdom and energy required for high performance. The Increasing your EQ is a teachable life skill. If people get better at these life skills, everyone benefits: The brain doesn't distinguish between being a more empathetic manager and a more empathetic father

The study of the Nine Temperaments is called the Enneagram and is described in the free ebook listed above.
