Summary of David Daniels & Virginia Price's The Essential Enneagram

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Enneagram is a personality system that describes nine distinct and fundamentally different patterns of thinking, feeling, and acting. Each one of us developed one of the nine patterns to protect a specific aspect of the self that felt threatened as our own personality was developing. #2 The Essential Enneagram is a test that you can take to find out your Enneagram personality type.
It consists of nine short paragraphs that describe the fundamentals of each of the nine personality types. You then put the three selected paragraphs in order, beginning with the one that is the most like you. #3 The Type Determination pages and the Type Description pages are the two key tools you will use to discover and begin to confirm your type. You will find it useful to read the explanations of both the Type Determination pages and the Type Description pages. #4 Select the three paragraphs that are most like you.
Each paragraph may describe you to some degree, but choose the three that seem most like you. Consider each paragraph as a whole rather than individual sentences.
