On Tuesday we discussed what a fixed mindset is and how it can impact us. Today I wanted to talk about what having a fixed mindset around personal growth can look like by enneagram type. So often, people complain to me about others using the enneagram to validate their behaviors. Meaning we find our enneagram type and say, “well I do that because I’m a seven” instead of exploring if that behavior is serving you or not.

That is a fixed mindset. The idea that we are who we are and that is who we will always be. The trouble with that is that’s not the intended use of the enneagram. The intended use is to show you that it’s not who you have to be. You get to choose who you are in any given moment by how you show up.
