Okay Enneagram sixes. Let's talk about
you. We're out of snacks. We're gonna
starve to death.
I see your side, but on the other hand, I
also see your side, so maybe we should
just ask somebody else. Hi I just
wanted a call and check in make sure
you're safe.
How's the family doing? How's your
grandma? How's the parakeet? Is the
parakeet OK? In this video we're gonna
be talking all about Enneagram six, AKA
the loyalists. If you don't know what the
Enneagram is, I've made a quick and easy
beginner's guide to the Enneagram and
linked it in the card right here. For

Any dollar amount helps! And now
on to Enneagram six! So my little sister
is a six and she has all of the amazing
character traits of being a six. She's
funny, compassionate, reliable ... she never lets me borrow her clothes, come on Lily,
What? So annoying! At their best, healthy
sixes are faithful, dependable and
self-sacrificing. They are productive,
logical thinkers who put their mind
towards the common good. They are
clear-eyed judges of character and
they've come to believe that
everything's gonna be okay in the end.
That said, there are also some very
annoying things about the Enneagram six
so in this video I'm gonna share with
you seven annoying things that Enneagram
sixes do and say. But keep in mind this
is all in good fun and I just want to
explore the Enneagram in a funny,
light-hearted way.
Number one. The Enneagram six's deadly sin is fear. They have a deep-seated need
to be secure and that can become crazy
anxiety. What ya doing under there? We
live in Los Angeles over the San Andreas
Fault, okay? We are in constant danger of
a magnitude 8 earthquake. This is
honestly the safest place for me right now.
You do realize we have a board meeting
here in about five minutes? Do you think
everyone's gonna be able to fit under
here? No. There ... no. Well I'll just listen
from underneath. Okay.
Number two. Unhealthy sixes are
afraid that the entire world is against
them and this makes it really hard for
them to trust anyone, even themselves. You want to be on my fantasy football league?
I don't know. I kind of I heard that
you cheated last year? What? I don't
cheat. Well you kind of look like the
type of person who might cheat, so, plus I
don't really get baseball! Football! I
don't understand it. You're going to the
Super Bowl this year. You're wearing a
jersey! What? I don't ... I can't hear you.
You know what? Whatever! What's happening?
Number three. Sixes connect really
quickly in a crisis but after the dust
settles they can completely fall apart.
Okay. I found Sally and Tommy about a
block away from the preschool. I called
their parents and they're currently in
timeout for scaring us all. So it's all
under control.
It's fine. I'm fine. I lost two children.
I'm fine.
Number four. Because sixes are
always in their heads they question
everything. They are constantly in a
pattern of worst case scenario thinking.
This is my twenty seven step plan to
ensure that our launch has absolutely
zero hiccups. Now. Step one.
Number five.
Decision-making can be really hard for a
six. So when they're faced with difficult
decisions or even not so difficult
decisions they can get stuck in analysis
paralysis. Should I write with this one
or this one. The purple or the black?
The Tri Plus fineliner or the precise v5 RT?
I don't know what to choose, this is
really hard!
Number six. In relationships
sixes can tend to worry about what terrible
thing might ruin their relationship, even
if things are going really well. If the
partner that the six is with doesn't
know how to care for that kind of a fear,
It can be really frustrating for that
partner. One day we wake up and we don't
love each other anymore. Do you still
think I'm attractive?
I mean, do you think I'm pretty? Do you
like my hair? Should I color my hair
different? Are we good? Are you good? Am I good? I don't know.
And finally, number seven. In stress
sixes tend to lean towards the negative
side of the three. They become obsessive
workaholics in an effort to make
themselves feel more secure. They will
seek either material wealth or resources
to provide a sense of safety in their
lives. Hey you wanna go to lunch? No. I
can't eat. I can't sleep. There's too much
to do! OK!
Are you a six? If you are, leave a
comment down below. I actually scored
really high in a six so a lot of these
things feel a little too real for me!
And if you love a six and you're
