The Thinker: Growing as an Enneagram 5

The Enneagram is an ancient personality typology using nine points within a circle to represent nine distinct personality types. This sixty-day devotional is for Enneagram Five, known as the Thinker.

This book will help Fives, and those who love them, better understand how God created them and how best to use their unique gifts to serve Him and love others. It features an explanation of what the Enneagram is, how it benefits people, and a full description of what it means to be a Five, including the Thinker's deadly sin and their greatest strength.

Some attributes of the Thinker:

• Motivation: To be competent, to know what is unknown, and be respected as competent.
• Biggest Fear: Being incompetent, useless, helpless, lacking, and undeserving of others' respect or relationship.
• Head Triad: Along with Sixes and Sevens, Fives are considered to be part of the head triad. This means that they receive all information as something that needs to be thought over and analyzed before they can trust their feelings or gut with processing it. Fives tend to move quickly to action, thinking, "How does this information impact what I do?"

The sixty days of this devotional are split into six ten-day topics that include uniqueness, weakness, strength, pain points, and how Thinkers react in times of stress and growth.
