Finding your blind spot is actually what the Enneagram is all about according to Flemming Christensen.

 

In this episode, who was originally recorded as a Zoom meeting, he explains that the Enneagram is not about discovering patterns that you can relate to. That is just more attachment, more self-identification.

 

It's just like having post-its sitting on you with all kind of traits and patterns about you.

The Enneagram is about seeing how you stumble and distract yourself in life.

 

The Enneagram is telling you how do you distract yourself from what matters most in your life.

 

And things that matters most can of course be in your relationships. So your type will distract you to do what matters most in your relationships.

 

Or at work. Or in your spiritual life. Or with your friends. Or raising your child.

 

So and that would be the typical blind spots of the type that if you don't see that blind spot - If you don't accept that blind spot - then the Enneagram will not help you at all.

 

It will not make any sense, any meaning for you at all. So a blind spot is part of your personality that you cannot see, or maybe you don't want to see it.

 

At least you haven't accepted it fully.
