After learning about the personality characteristics of the Type 6 skeptics in Enneagram , I found that this type of person is the group with the strongest sense of crisis. Type 6 people are very similar to Observer No. 5 in some respects. For example, they both focus on protecting themselves, are more sensitive to the world around them, and are good at observing. However, unlike the No. 5 who likes to be alone, the No. 6 type is suspicious and at the same time eager to socialize with others. Below, I will introduce to you in detail the strengths, weaknesses, and ways of getting along with the No. 6 doubters.
Speaking of the most outstanding advantage of the No. 6 model, it is their strong sense of responsibility and teamwork. Type 6's super alertness and sense of crisis make them very sensitive to changes in things. Once they find something wrong, they will react in time. In order to ensure their own safety, they know that many times they cannot do it on their own, so they attach great importance to the strength of uniting the people around them, so that they can further ensure their own safety and interests.
And the need for unity has spawned a strong sense of responsibility for doubters. Because uniting others first requires a sense of responsibility, so that it is easier to gain the trust of others and make the team cohesive.
From this point of view, Type 6 is actually very suitable to lead a team. They have a sense of responsibility and focus on teamwork, and they are usually very cautious. Once they decide that a thing is worth doing, they will keep it high. loyalty.
But the strange thing is that this type of No. 6 is indifferent to fame, They have no enthusiasm for the pursuit of success, and even some are afraid of it. Because they are more concerned about the negative impact of success than their sense of accomplishment, for fear that they will be noticed by others and threaten their safety.

So, the suspicious personality of Type 6 is indeed the biggest obstacle to their success. Although, Model 6 originally paid great attention to cooperation and efficiency,But it always becomes procrastinated when things are about to happen, and if they are reluctant to take the last step, they may lose the best opportunity and suffer heavy losses.
Secondly, 's suspicious No. 6 mentality is often pessimistic. tends to magnify the part of failure with the same success or failure rate, refuse to take risks, do not like to make new attempts, and be conservative. Choice, which makes it difficult for them to make major breakthroughs and innovations.
The above reasons are also the deep reasons why they are afraid of success. They always feel that success will bring them more harm than good, so they will not pursue success with enthusiasm.
Speaking of typical suspicious characters, all I can think of is Cao Cao in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Many times, my suspiciousness caused a lot of trouble and loss. For example, when he saw someone sharpening his knife, he thought he was going to kill him, but he killed other people's family and was forced to flee overnight. And the suspiciousness brought Cao Cao more than trouble. His good use of talents and a unity-oriented approach allowed him to finally establish the most powerful country at the time.

Compared with other people, getting along with type 6 people is the most uncomfortable. Because they tend to have a certain degree of vigilance towards others, they like to knock on the side when getting along. They don’t like to ask questions that are too direct, and they don’t like to express their attitude directly. They would rather choose to ask a few more questions or find a tactful way to solve the problem. . As for the answers and actions of others, he usually ponders carefully to see if there are other deep meanings behind the words and actions.
Faced with such a person, it’s best not to bend around like No. 6, but tell the truth, keep the statement as simple as possible, and try to be consistent, so as to reduce the suspicion of No. 6 and improve Conversation efficiency. If you are as euphemistic as No. 6, you will not only increase the other party’s suspicion, but also reduce efficiency, and you will even say a lot of things and still not communicate the problem clearly.

It is also very simple to judge whether the other party is a type 6 person.They don't like to dress too dazzlingly, but they are not too old-fashioned. They like to wear clothes of popular taste but dark colors to avoid being noticed. When facing them, I can clearly see that their expressions and expressions are in a state of tension. They have a strong focus and logic during the conversation. I like to say: "I think about it first" "Wait a moment" "Let me do it again" "Thinking" and other words that need to be considered, it is convenient for them to figure out the content of the conversation carefully.
It can be seen that getting along with type 6 people is really tiring, but if they can get their favor, they will trust you very much in the future, and this trust will not change easily. And they like to work with people, so if they want to work together, type 6 people are still ideal partners.
