About Me

I'm self-employed for the moment. I'm working on starting a company that I think has the potential to be VERY successful while enjoying a little break from working for a while. I like rock climbing, snowboarding, riding quads/dirtbikes, camping, fishing, hiking, the outdoors in general, computers, video games (of course, I'm a guy, but they're not my life! :), music (playing & listening), meeting new people, hanging out with my friends, relaxing and watching TV, Tai Chi, and a lot of other stuff that I can't think of right now. Send me a message if you want to know more...I'm not so good at describing myself on these profiles.
My score on The Quick & Painless ENNEAGRAM Test :
9 - the Peacemaker

You chose BX - your Enneagram type is NINE (aka "The Mediator")
"I am at peace"
Peacemakers are receptive, good-natured, and supportive. They seek union with others and the world around them.


How to Get Along with Me

If you want me to do something, how you ask is important. I especially don't like expectations or pressure. I like to listen and to be of service, but don't take advantage of this. Listen until I finish speaking, even though I meander a bit. Give me time to finish things and make decisions. It's OK to nudge me gently and nonjudgmentally. Ask me questions to help me get clear. Tell me when you like how I look. I'm not averse to flattery. Hug me, show physical affection. It opens me up to my feelings. I like a good discussion but not a confrontation. Let me know you like what I've done or said. Laugh with me and share in my enjoyment of life.

What I Like About Being a Nine

being nonjudgmental and accepting caring for and being concerned about others being able to relax and have a good time knowing that most people enjoy my company; I'm easy to be around my ability to see many different sides of an issue and to be a good mediator and facilitator my heightened awareness of sensations, aesthetics, and the here and now being able to go with the flow and feel one with the universe

What's Hard About Being a Nine

being judged and misunderstood for being placid and/or indecisive being critical of myself for lacking initiative and discipline being too sensitive to criticism; taking every raised eyebrow and twitch of the mouth personally being confused about what I really want caring too much about what others will think of me not being listened to or taken seriously

Nines as Children Often

feel ignored and that their wants, opinions, and feelings are unimportant tune out a lot, especially when others argue are "good" children: deny anger or keep it to themselves

Nines as Parents

are supportive, kind, and warm are sometimes overly permissive or nondirective
