Hey everyone, 🤗 I'm keen on gaining further insights about the Enneagram Type and Wing 1w2. 📚 Anyone here identify as a 1w2? How do your values, motivations and behavior patterns reflect this specific Type? Additionally, how does the influence of the 2-wing shape your Type 1 qualities? 🤔 I'd love to hear your personal experiences and perspectives to better understand this dynamic. 😊 Any recommended resources or reading materials are welcome too. Thanks!

Hi there! 😊 I'm a 1w2, and I'd love to share my experiences with you! 🌟 As a 1w2, my core Type 1 values of integrity, responsibility, and a strong desire for improvement are deeply ingrained in my personality. I'm always striving for perfection and to make things better, both for myself and the world around me. 🛠️✨ However, the 2 wing adds a layer of warmth and compassion. This influence encourages me to be more people-oriented and helpful. I find myself driven not just by a need to do things right, but also by a genuine desire to support and care for others. 🤝❤️ It's a unique blend that can sometimes create a bit of tension as I balance between my ideals and my desire to connect and assist others. Some days it feels like a juggling act, but overall, it enriches my life and interactions. For resources, I highly recommend "The Wisdom of the Enneagram" by Don Riso and Russ Hudson. It offers deep insights into each type and their wings. 📖👍 Hope this helps, and looking forward to hearing from other 1w2s as well! 🌈✨

Hey! 😊 I'm a 1w2, so I can definitely share some insights. 📖 For me, the core values of a Type 1, like striving for perfection and having a strong sense of integrity, are very prominent. The influence of the 2-wing adds a layer of warmth and a desire to help others. 🤗 In terms of motivations, my Type 1 side drives me to improve not only myself but also my surroundings. I often notice when things aren't as they should be and feel a strong urge to fix them. 😅 However, my 2-wing means that I approach these improvements with empathy and a genuine desire to support and nurture those around me. 💖 Behavior-wise, I find myself balancing between being critical (Type 1) and compassionate (2-wing). For example, while I can be quite self-critical and detail-oriented, I also go out of my way to assist others, sometimes to the point of neglecting my own needs. It's a constant juggling act! 🤹‍♂️ As for resources, I'd recommend "The Wisdom of the Enneagram" by Don Richard Riso and Russ Hudson. It's a fantastic deep dive into all types and wings. 📘 Also, the Enneagram Institute's website has detailed descriptions and type comparisons that you might find useful. Hope this helps! 🌟 Looking forward to hearing more from you and others. 😊✨

Hiya! 👋 As a fellow 1w2, I’d be happy to share my experiences 😊. The core qualities of Type 1, such as a strong sense of ethics, a drive for improvement, and a desire for order, are definitely central to my personality. 📏🧹 However, the 2-wing adds a layer of warmth and a desire to help others, making me more people-oriented and compassionate. 🌟❤️ I often find myself motivated by the need to be of service to others while still striving for perfection and integrity in what I do. 🌈✨ When it comes to behavior patterns, I often notice a balancing act between self-criticism (the Type 1 part) and the need for appreciation and connection with others (the Type 2 influence). 🤹‍♂️ It’s an interesting dynamic because while I want things to be “just right,” I also deeply care about the feelings and needs of those around me. For resources, I highly recommend "The Wisdom of the Enneagram" by Don Richard Riso and Russ Hudson 📘, and "The Complete Enneagram" by Beatrice Chestnut 📖. Both offer deep dives and practical insights into how the different wings influence core types. I hope this helps! Feel free to reach out if you have more questions. 🌟😊

Hey! 😊 I’m a 1w2 and I'd love to share my experience! For me, the core values of being a Type 1, such as integrity, striving for perfection, and a strong sense of right and wrong, are very prominent. The 2-wing introduces a nurturing and helpful aspect to my personality, making me more driven to support and uplift others. 🌟 The combination of the dedication to improvement (Type 1) and a genuine caring for people (Type 2) often means I’m highly motivated by the desire to make the world a better place not just through efficiency and correctness but also through compassion and kindness. 💖 This can sometimes create internal tension, as the perfectionist side might get frustrated with imperfections, while the 2-wing encourages patience and empathy. Behavior-wise, you'll probably notice a strong commitment to volunteer work, mentoring, or any activities that benefit others directly. 🤝 I find great satisfaction in roles where I can guide and support people to be their best selves! For resources, I highly recommend "The Wisdom of the Enneagram" by Don Richard Riso and Russ Hudson. It offers deep insights into the dynamics of each type and wing combinations. Another great one is "The Complete Enneagram" by Beatrice Chestnut, which provides comprehensive details on enneagram subtypes. 📖 Looking forward to hearing about other 1w2 experiences! 🌸

Hi there! 😊 I'm a 1w2 and I'm happy to share some insights. As a 1w2, our core values center around integrity, responsibility, and a desire for improvement. 📈 We strive to make the world a better place by adhering to high standards and principles. The influence of the 2-wing brings a nurturing, helpful, and interpersonal element into the mix. 🌸 We often find ourselves motivated by a strong sense of duty and the need to be useful to others. This can manifest in behavior patterns such as being diligent, organized, and supportive. The 2-wing makes us more empathetic and people-oriented, often driving us to help those around us while maintaining our high standards. 💪💖 Personally, I've found that the balance between the strictness of Type 1 and the warmth of Type 2 can sometimes be challenging, but it's also incredibly rewarding. 🌟 Staying true to our values while being compassionate and supportive allows us to foster growth both personally and in our communities. 🌻 For resources, I'd recommend "The Wisdom of the Enneagram" by Don Richard Riso and Russ Hudson. 📚 It's comprehensive and offers great insights into each Type and Wing. Also, "Personality Types: Using the Enneagram for Self-Discovery" by the same authors is fantastic. Hope this helps! Feel free to reach out if you have more questions or thoughts. 😊👍
