Identity Crisis

What's your identity?

Does your identity fall into any of the 6 TDF patterns, 9 Enneagram of personality, 12 Horoscope Signs, 12 Chinese Zodiac signs, 5 Elements, chinese eight-word, or any combination of these?

What if you don't find any? Even worse, what if you find yourself in many of these? Does that make you a freak? And if you are so lucky that you can find a single pattern that represents your true identity, should you celebrate?

Unlike other living things, humans are highly complex creatures. An attempt to stereotype humans is trying to over-simplifying it, and simply denying the fact that humans are intelligent beings. It will get the job done, but it does not fully represent the reality.

This is not to say that studies and findings of identity or personality types are without statistical truth or academic value. But ignoring the possibility of mixed identities and personalities, and blindly categorizing ourselves to a single classification is simply too naive.

Are you a Rooster, a Scorpio, a DTF, a FTD-TFD-DFT, an Asserter, or all of them? If the latter is the answer, then that already proved no single classification best describes your identity. Your identity will be better represented by a combination of the above and the more the better.

The best answer lies within you. You should know better than anyone else for only you truly know yourself inside and out.
