Take Free Enneagram Personality Test

The results to my Enneagram Test showed me to be a Type Seven. Sevens are considered to be the enthusiast. Enthusiasts tend to be quick thinking extroverts with creative and open minds. Members of this group are in a constant pursuit of adventure and entrainment. They are high energy, multi-taskers who often have a hard time finishing what they start. Sevens are easily distracted due to their fear of boredom. Because of this sevens must exercise patience and keep a flexible schedule. Other than boredom, sevens struggle with fears of limitation, being confined, and missing out. Sevens do not practice self-denial; instead they are concerned with stimulating the senses. The ideal self for a seven is to be and be seen as happy, optimistic, and on the go.

Do I agree with the results?... When the personality test was first assigned I was very skeptical. I have a hard time believing that something as complex and changing as a human’s physiological personality can be classified into one of nine categories. I also struggle with the notion that people always want to group other people. I believe that each of us have had so many unique life experiences that it is impossible to group some 6.7 billion people into just a few boxes. With that said, after taking the test I found my results to be surprisingly accurate. While reading about the enthusiast, type seven, I easily thought of examples in my life that fit this profile. The easiest way to put it is I am a thrill-seeker. I love the high of experiencing new and unknown things. Travel is my greatest passion, I can’t think of a better feeling that being in an unfamiliar place trying to figure things out. I am first in line when it comes to anything involving an adrenaline rush, whether it be skydiving or running from the police. I hate just sitting around, life can’t be wasted! I consider myself spontaneous, often times unsure of my next move. My plans are never concrete, if I have any at all. My friends know that if I bail on plans we have made its not anything against them, its just that I have found something more exciting to do. I have short attention span that causes me too have many unfinished projects lying around my house. And because of my short attention span I’m going to conclude by saying that this personality test has surprised me. I was shocked to see myself in the results but I am still not willing to say that my or anyone else’s personality is able to fit into one of nine segregated groups.
