Enneagram Quiz: How Would You Cross the River?

enneagram quiz: how would you cross the river

You can take an Enneagram quiz to help you determine your personality type.

The Enneagram quiz that I’d like to share: How would you cross the river?

There are many online tests but this is a favourite Enneagram quiz of mine. Also, as an update, I’ve benefited so much from the learnings over the years that I have since become an Enneagram Executive Coach accredited with the International Enneagram Association. I now use the Enneagram to help guide others in their personal growth.

If you don’t already know, the Enneagram is an excellent profiling tool. It describes your personality attributes. You can be one of 9 personality types. According to the Enneagram quiz,  your personality type influences how you would cross the river.

Does the fear of failure stop you from venturing forth?

The fear of failure often strikes with terror. A shiver goes down your spine. You break out in profuse sweat. Your imagination goes on the overdrive. Whether the trial you are undergoing is a big or small one, you feel faint from the thought of being seen as a failure in life.

The fear of failure may not all that negative. For instance, it can spur you to overcome your barriers and conquer new heights. I believe it was how I have studied and passed my examinations relatively well while in school. However, in the recent years, I realised that being motivated by fear may not exactly be the best way to go about living. I have also found that my children do not respond too well when fear is being used to get them to study or to instil some of discipline. With awareness, I intend to be mindful about not using fear on them.

I was often asked this question by those who are confused: What Enneagram Type am I?

As an Enneagram Executive Coach, I’d like to offer the suggestion to first read about each of the 9 personality types that the Enneagram comprises of. Below is the follow up to the updated post on Enneagram Quiz: How Would You Cross the River.

According to the Enneagram, we have one core Personality Type. It appears that we are either born with it or that it can be the result of early nurturing. This core is home base and it doesn’t change. It describes you the most. If you are a bird, which is free to roam and to explore all other types, you always come flying home. You reside in this sector; as if it is a familiar nest.
