For most of us, it would be impossible to spend a day without coming into direct or indirect contact with dozens of family, friends, people on the street, at the office, on television, in our fantasies and fears. 
Our relationships with others are the elements that are most changeable, irritating, pleasurable and mystifying in our lives.

Types of personality, based on the Enneagram's ancient system, will help you enjoy more satisfying and fulfilling relationships in all areas of your life by introducing you to the nine basic types of personality inherent in human nature. This knowledge will help you to understand better how others think and why they act as they do, as well as to increase awareness of your own personality.

THE 9 TYPES OF PEOPLE:
• The Perfectionist motivated by the need to live life the right way; improve one-self and others; and avoids anger.
• The Helper motivated by the need to be loved and appreciated and to express your positive feelings towards others.
• The Achiever motivated by the need to be productive; to achieve success; and to avoid failure.
• The Romantic motivated by the need to understand your feelings and to be understood to search for the meaning of life; and to avoid being ordinary.
• The Observer motivated by the need to know everything and understand the universe and to be self-sufficient
• The Loyalist motivated by the need for security; to feel taken care of; or to confront your fears.
• The Enthusiast motivated by the need to be happy and plan fun things; to contribute to the world; and to avoid suffering and pain.
• The Challenger motivated by the need to be self-reliant and strong; to make an impact on the world; and to avoid being weak.
• The Peacemaker motivated by the need to keep the peace; merge with others; and avoids conflict.

Highly accessible, yet filled with sophisticated concepts and techniques found nowhere else, The Wisdom of the Enneagram is a strikingly new fusion of psychology and spirituality.
