{=(p1):__**The Reformer:**__
**In Brief:** Ones are conscientious and ethical, with a strong sense of right and wrong. They are teachers, crusaders, and advocates for change: always striving to improve things, but afraid of making a mistake. Well-organized, orderly, and fastidious, they try to maintain high standards, but can slip into being critical and perfectionistic. They typically have problems with resentment and impatience.
**At their Best:** *wise, discerning, realistic, and noble. Can be morally heroic.*

{=(p2):__**The Helper:**__
**In Brief:** Twos are empathetic, sincere, and warm-hearted. They are friendly, generous, and self-sacrificing, but can also be sentimental, flattering, and people-pleasing. They are well-meaning and driven to be close to others, but can slip into doing things for others in order to be needed. They typically have problems with possessiveness and with acknowledging their own needs.
**At their Best:** *unselfish and altruistic, they have unconditional love for others.*
**See More:** [Enneagram Institute]({url}type-{1})}
{=(p3):__**The Achiever:**__
**In Brief:** Threes are self-assured, attractive, and charming. Ambitious, competent, and energetic, they can also be status-conscious and highly driven for advancement. They are diplomatic and poised, but can also be overly concerned with their image and what others think of them. They typically have problems with workaholism and competitiveness.
**At their Best:** *self-accepting, authentic, everything they seem to be—role models who inspire others.*
**See More:** [Enneagram Institute]({url}type-{1})}
{=(p4):__**The Individualist:**__
**In Brief:** Fours are self-aware, sensitive, and reserved. They are emotionally honest, creative, and personal, but can also be moody and self-conscious. Withholding themselves from others due to feeling vulnerable and defective, they can also feel disdainful and exempt from ordinary ways of living. They typically have problems with melancholy, self-indulgence, and self-pity.
**At their Best:** *inspired and highly creative, they are able to renew themselves and transform their experiences.*
**See More:** [Enneagram Institute]({url}type-{1})}
{=(p5):__**The Investigator:**__
**In Brief:** *Fives are alert, insightful, and curious. They are able to concentrate and focus on developing complex ideas and skills. Independent, innovative, and inventive, they can also become preoccupied with their thoughts and imaginary constructs. They become detached, yet high-strung and intense. They typically have problems with eccentricity, nihilism, and isolation.* 
**At their Best:** *visionary pioneers, often ahead of their time, and able to see the world in an entirely new way.*
**See More:** [Enneagram Institute]({url}type-{1})}
{=(p6):__**The Loyalist:**__
**In Brief:** *The committed, security-oriented type. Sixes are reliable, hard-working, responsible, and trustworthy. Excellent "troubleshooters," they foresee problems and foster cooperation, but can also become defensive, evasive, and anxious—running on stress while complaining about it. They can be cautious and indecisive, but also reactive, defiant and rebellious. They typically have problems with self-doubt and suspicion.* 
**At their Best:** *internally stable and self-reliant, courageously championing themselves and others.*
**See More:** [Enneagram Institute]({url}type-{1})}
{=(p7):__**The Enthusiast:**__
**In Brief:** *Sevens are extroverted, optimistic, versatile, and spontaneous. Playful, high-spirited, and practical, they can also misapply their many talents, becoming over-extended, scattered, and undisciplined. They constantly seek new and exciting experiences, but can become distracted and exhausted by staying on the go. They typically have problems with impatience and impulsiveness.* 
**At their Best:** *they focus their talents on worthwhile goals, becoming appreciative, joyous, and satisfied.*
**See More:** [Enneagram Institute]({url}type-{1})}
{=(p8):__**The Challenger:**__
**In Brief:** *Eights are self-confident, strong, and assertive. Protective, resourceful, straight-talking, and decisive, but can also be ego-centric and domineering. Eights feel they must control their environment, especially people, sometimes becoming confrontational and intimidating. Eights typically have problems with their tempers and with allowing themselves to be vulnerable.* 
**At their Best:** *self-mastering, they use their strength to improve others' lives, becoming heroic, magnanimous, and inspiring.*
**See More:** [Enneagram Institute]({url}type-{1})}
{=(p9):__**The Peacemaker:**__
**In Brief:** *Nines are accepting, trusting, and stable. They are usually creative, optimistic, and supportive, but can also be too willing to go along with others to keep the peace. They want everything to go smoothly and be without conflict, but they can also tend to be complacent, simplifying problems and minimizing anything upsetting. They typically have problems with inertia and stubbornness.* 
**At their Best:** *indomitable and all-embracing, they are able to bring people together and heal conflicts.*

{=(error):Error, that type doesn't exist.}
{=(noargs):From one point of view, the Enneagram can be seen as a set of nine distinct personality types, with each number on the Enneagram denoting one type. It is common to find a little of yourself in all nine of the types, although one of them should stand out as being closest to yourself. This is your basic personality type.

Everyone emerges from childhood with one of the nine types dominating their personality, with inborn temperament and other pre-natal factors being the main determinants of our type. This is one area where most all of the major Enneagram authors agree—we are born with a dominant type. Subsequently, this inborn orientation largely determines the ways in which we learn to adapt to our early childhood environment. It also seems to lead to certain unconscious orientations toward our parental figures, but why this is so, we still do not know. In any case, by the time children are four or five years old, their consciousness has developed sufficiently to have a separate sense of self. Although their identity is still very fluid, at this age children begin to establish themselves and find ways of fitting into the world on their own.

Thus, the overall orientation of our personality reflects the totality of all childhood factors (including genetics) that influenced its development. (For more about the developmental patterns of each personality type, see the related section in the type descriptions in Personality Types and in The Wisdom of the Enneagram.
