8: Type 7- The Enthusiast


Listen Later

Today we are talking about type 7, the enthusiast.

Sevens are filled with joy. They have bounds of energy and are optimistic to a fault. They love life and you can see if radiate from them. They are also extremely enthusiastic. Seven have so much energy. They can take up space in a room by being boisterous.  Sevens are fun to be around.

Sevens try to avoid pain and they will do everything to avoid unpleasant emotions. They do not like fear or emptiness. They will not do anything that will make them FEEL emotions to their core. They will try to avoid being sad, angry, disappointed, depressed or frustrated because they feel like these emotions are intolerable. The other types know that all the pain and struggle can’t be avoided forever but sevens feel like they can avoid it.

Sevens are light, positive and lively. They have a hard time being around negative people due to the negativity overwhelms sevens.

Sevens greatest fear is to be in pain or be deprived. Their greatest desire is to be satisfied, content, as well as have their needs fulfilled. Sevens are excited about what’s coming next. They are the dreamers of the world and enjoying themselves and having fun.

Sevens have a wing of either a 6 or an 8. Listen to the episodes on both types and see which one you pull characteristics from. You can pull from one over the other or from both sides equally.
