Читать книгу Enneagram For Dummies - Jeanette van Stijn - Страница 16

The elements that make up each Enneagram type are the starting points for the Enneagram method. In this part you discover that all nine types consist of the same elements but that the content of these elements differs from type to type. The basic pattern of thinking, feeling, and acting emerges as a mechanism with not just one but nine different contents. After your first brief encounter with the Enneagram types in Part 1, you now get more detailed information on how various thought patterns work, how people’s thoughts and feelings influence each other, and what predictable patterns will arise from these interactions. Here we explore how people function on a psychological level.

The Enneagram doesn’t claim that there are only nine types of people in the world. That would be ridiculous! Each person is unique — this is why there are just as many types as there are people in the world.
