Type Four
We have named personality type Four The Individualist because Fours maintain their identity by seeing themselves as fundamentally different from others. Fours feel that they are unlike other human beings, and consequently, that no one can understand them or love them adequately. They often see themselves as uniquely talented, possessing special, one-of-a-kind gifts, but also as uniquely disadvantaged or flawed.
What are they like?
They are typical romantics, born artists. They are easily attracted to sincere, beautiful, unusual, and strange things, and will look beneath the surface to find deeper meaning. They display impeccable taste in things they care about, making decisions based on emotional preferences, with the best things easily satisfying them. To others, they may appear like intense and exaggerated tragic actors, or meddlesome and harsh critics. However, at their best, Type Fours are individuals who balance creativity and aesthetics, living passionate lives and presenting themselves with elegance and excellent taste.
Personality Development Levels
All types have strengths and weaknesses: Some parts of your personality work well, while others may hinder you from achieving your ambitions and goals. The extent to which this affects you is not fixed, these changes in your strengths and weaknesses are called development, and are divided into three stages: healthy, average, and unhealthy. Ideally, the goal is to develop yourself into the healthy category and pay attention to the signs that you are slipping into the unhealthy category. Once you have identified these, you can improve your strengths and learn to make up for your weaknesses, thereby making you a more fulfilling and successful self.
