For awhile I've felt like God has created me to be a leader. On the Spiritual Life retreat we did a personality assessment test and I was labeled as the "Challenger." I walk a fine line between being domineering, controlling, intimidating and being a protector, motivator, and rallier. I find this to be completely true of myself and who I am. I am confrontational and unwilling to be controlled. I like to cut to the chase, get things done, and have an inner power to push and force change in my world. One part of the definition from www.enneagraminstitute.com says, "Decisive, authoritative, and commanding: the natural leader others look up to. Take initiative, make things happen: champion people, provider, protective, and honorable, carrying others with their strength." There's so much more to it, but being a challenger and understanding that I am an Enjolras in my world adds another layer to my understanding of what God has planned for me. The force of will that he's worked in me makes me believe that he has a plan to put me in a posititon where that character is needed: I think he'll place me in a position of great adversity and I look forward to being able to burn in my full potential.
