Welcome to Day 978 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.

The Enneagram System - Type Number Six - The Loyalist - Ask Gramps

Thank you for joining us for our five days per week, wisdom and legacy building podcast. We are broadcasting from our studio at ‘The Big House’ in Marietta, Ohio.  This is Day 978 of our Trek and time for our Philosophy Friday series.  Each Friday we will ponder some of the basic truths and mysteries of life, and how they can impact us in creating our living legacy.  As we continue on this trek called life, sometimes we have questions about life, so our Friday trek is a time where we can ‘Ask Gramps.’   Gramps will answer questions that you would like to ask your dad or granddad, but for whatever reason, this is not possible.  No matter how old we are, I know that all of us would like the opportunity to ask dad or gramps questions about life in many areas.

Today is the thirteenth episode in our series delving into what makes each of us respond differently to life situations and circumstances. Understanding ourselves and how others may interpret life through their paradigm will allow us to interact with each other with more love and compassion.   This empathy can be achieved by utilizing a profound tool call ‘The Enneagram.’ If you have missed any of our past twelve Friday series, I would recommend going back and listen to them or read the Wisdom Journals.  As a review, the tool that we refer to as the Enneagram (Any-a-Gram) is a circle with nine interconnected points (Ennea refers to 9 and Gram referring to a drawing).  Check out today's or prior week’s Wisdom Journal for a representation of it.  I have also included in today’s Wisdom Journal a copy of ‘The Enneagram At-A-Glance’ which was compiled by Suzanne H Eller.  If you would like a PDF copy, click on the link in today’s Wisdom Journal located on our website Wisdom-Trek.com.

I would also recommend the book ‘The Road Back to You’ written by Ian Morgan Cron and Suzanne Stabile.  It is an excellent book about an enneagram journey to self-discovery from a Christian perspective.

In the first seven episodes, we explored how The Enneagram System works and then presented an overview of all nine personality types.  So far we took a deep dive into ‘The Reformer,’ ‘The Helper,’ ‘The Achiever,’ ‘The Individualist,’  “The Investigator.”  This week we will explore type Number Six “The Loyalist.”  Next week we will focus on type number seven ‘The Enthusiast.’

Since we are exploring the Enneagram in detail, and I would also recommend reading the Wisdom Journal for each Friday to see the diagrams presented each week.  As helpful as the Enneagram is, keep in mind though, it is still only a tool, and cannot replace or usurp the precepts that are found in God’s Word.   All decisions and actions that we make in life must be in harmony with God’s precepts.

So the questions for the next several months will be:

“Hey, Gramps, why do people act and react to situations and circumstances in life differently?  How can I gain wisdom to better understand myself and others so that I can love, serve, and minister to them on a deeper level?”
 The Enneagram System – Type Number Six – The Loyalist

6 - THE LOYALIST
Enneagram Type Six
The Committed, Security-Oriented Type:

Engaging, Responsible, Anxious, and Suspicious

· Type Six 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.
