Joiner
Your core personality is probably Enneagram Type 6, the JOINER, also known as the BELONGER or the SIMPLETON.
You seem like a loyal friend and good employee, but this is because of your rigid sense of duty and panicky need for explicit institutional structure. You're so conventional and conformist that you are often paralyzed by indecision and fear, which may force you to senselessly impulsive decisions as your only way out of the impasse.
Your SECRET JOYS include belonging to a large number of organizations, having at least five friends you've kept since high school, hearing your cooking or parenting skills praised in a supermarket checkout line, having your family portrait on display where you work, and believing in God.
Some of your SECRET FEARS are that you will have to face a police officer all by yourself, that you will not have someone to gossip with, that you will not be invited to a neighbor's party, or that no one will offer you a seat when you get there, or that there is no God and this is all a joke. And ha ha ha, the joke's on you.
Under STRESS you begin to move toward Enneagram Type 3, the PERFORMER. You try to gain group acceptance by hard work and diligence, but because this goes against your basic abhorrence of standing out and your fundamental lack of significant talent, you churn with anxiety and insecurity every day of your life.
AT YOUR BEST you begin to move toward Enneagram Type 9, the PEACEMAKER. You acquire a bland trust in the group's wisdom and help to stabilize group conflict by always agreeing with the dominating or most conservative faction in any decision the group faces. Because you instinctively gravitate to the winning side, you amass a small prestige over time, so that your inability to grasp both sides of an issue makes dissent appear nonsensical before it arises.
