Yes I want to read the book. If I read the book, I am going to meet 9 people who have rechanneled their type that helped them succeed personally and are now using their type to thrive personally. Since you’ve attended several MEA workshops and have so many contacts with people interested in this topic, you have a great list for the pre-order launch. Stories illuminate and you are a good storyteller. Walking the camino will give you even more stories and ideas. How exciting for you! And you are a good writer Pat. Include all of your favorite stuff. This is all legacy work—my passion.
I think your book would help identify potential for our 3rd or 4th chapters and hopefully a new lens for the second half or last third of this incarnation.
Hey Pat, and good morning. I always enjoy your writing and your posts. We "met" as part of a cohort in the LIVING SCHOOL a couple of years ago. I became interested in the Enneagram during that time because I'd always been fascinated by Jung's personality types. During my career I used various versions of the Myers Briggs test to help build stronger, more collaborative teams. But I have to say, now that I am in my 60's, and actively pursuing volunteer work and causes I believe in, I am finding far less consistency in my "profile". There are, of course, some long standing habits of thinking, but nothing quite so hard wired as when I was young and held onto my INTJ personality profile as though it were gospel. When my husband was diagnosed with brain cancer I became fascinated with neuroscience, and how the brain makes sense of the world and impacts our thoughts and behaviors. In a roundabout way that led me to looking at the power of habit, both physical and mental. As many have observed, "We are what we repeatedly do" - or the lengthier version "“Watch your thoughts, they become your words; watch your words, they become your actions; watch your actions, they become your habits; watch your habits, they become your character; watch your character, it becomes your destiny.” (Lao Tzu). I think many people will be interested in your book (and will enjoy your engaging style of writing). And I hope that you can show how "enneagrams/personality profiles/patterns of behavior" are not hardwired. Our brains are extremely malleable and adaptable depending on the stories we tell ourselves, the information we consume, and the patterns of behavior we adopt. Moving into the 3rd act of my life, I'm trying to be as intentional as possible about each of those choices. Bravo to you for the very good work you do. And thank you for sharing.
