Type G - 'Inventor'

'Inventors' love excitement and challenge. They are clever, talkative and constantly strive to increase their competence and personal power. They are good enterprisers and are fascinated with new ideas. They are alert to new possibilities and have strong initiative. Type G's operate on creative impulse and value inspiration and strive to turn original ideas into reality.

This type of person is inquisitive, versatile, adaptable, and resourceful. They can easily see the flaw in any position and enjoy arguing for fun on either side of an issue. They are great strategists, have excellent analytical skills and can almost always find a logical reason for what they want.

Most type G's like to test the limits and believe that rules are meant to be broken (or at least bent). They like to live freely and look for fun and variety in everyday situations. They often have great numbers of friends and acquaintances and are charming and inspiring.

Possible downside:
'Inventors' may ignore the standard way of doing things simply because it is not original. They sometimes fail to prepare because their enthusiasm to start something new causes them to dive in too quickly. They would do well to make fewer commitments so they can finish more of what they start.

Often, type G's talk so much that they don't give others the chance to contribute. They are honest and fair but also can be blunt and tactless. They need to consider the feelings of others as valid and important. While they are often funny and entertaining, they can also be insincere. They need to resist the urge to perform and simply share their genuine emotions. Their desire to remain open to new things, leaves them to be undependable and inconsiderate of others. Their natural ability to anticipate what is coming can sometimes lead them to mistakenly assume what someone is going to say and jump to conclusions. They would do well to pay closer attention to what is going on around them and listen to feelings of others. This will help them avoid appearing arrogant and rude.
