Читать книгу Enneagram For Dummies - Jeanette van Stijn - Страница 59

The Enneagram is a tool or an aid for developing yourself. You should use it that way. In other words, use it for yourself! As with other tools or techniques of self-development, it occasionally happens that people who grapple with it are primarily interested in changing the people around them. The thing is, no one is happy if they are pushed into something, and any attempt on your part to do so will surely backfire. You can encourage people to join you on your path only if they’re already open to further development. The best way to do this is if you become a source of inspiration because others see how you benefit from your method. My mother always told me, “If you want to improve the world, start with yourself.” That’s what I call “living by the Enneagram.”
