Damn, I am in love. Thank you for creating this! Makes me understand myself way better. Also explains why I used to shut down and go "numb" when my parents/SO's would start a fight. I feared saying things I would later regret.... I'm glad I now know that setting boundries and voicing my opinions is not destructive.
I had to intervene more than ones in a fight. I would go numb, cry but something inside me had enough and now I am able to stand up and put into the argument instantly. I don't know what it is. But I don't yell, scream, hit things or throw things. But people listen to me when I had enough all I have to do is raise my voice once or give them the look. - INFP 9w1
If people are used to you behaving a certain way, I could see it being very surprising when you do assert yourself. Like it carries more weight because you must really mean it!
I just discovered your videos yesterday, and saved this one for last. I'm a Nine, and wanted to experience the richness on display with the other eight types before delving into my own. Such wondrous variety you've presented! Thank you very much for creating these, and giving so much of yourself through these varied characters. I am so looking forward to your next project. My heart swelled to see Frodo Baggins and Fred Rogers. Such shining examples of rich, nuanced characters struggling on their journeys and helping us on our own. Also delighted that The Dude is in here. He may not be the best role model, but damn if he isn't relatable!
"Well that's just like... your opinion man." But seriously, it's very gratifying to hear you say that! My hope with this series is that people will be able to use these videos to better understand themselves and those around them. Next I'm planning to do some "case study" videos where I dive deeper into individual characters, so stay tuned for that!
The mediator scene is what I find myself doing constantly and I actually quite enjoy it! It's always good to have someone who can see both sides and help others understand what they can't/won't see. Great job! ❤️
My mom is a 9 and this video definitely sounds like her. I just love 9s and their gentle, quiet wisdom and objectivity so much! I always feel so deeply understood after talking to a 9.
My mom’s a Nine, too. She’s hard some hard times lately but it’s really brought out a new side of her. She’s finding a strength she never knew she had.
The funny thing for me being a 9 is that my fashion style is so different from everybody in the city I live in that I naturally stand out. 😂😂😂 I have lured how to speak up about my opinions better so I come off a bit bolder sometimes. But the shy INFP 9w1 is still my nature. ❤
That’s so great to hear! I started this channel to help people learn more about themselves and others, and it’s always encouraging when it turns out that it’s working.
There's something deeply unsettling about having your own head cracked open and revealed in intimate detail on a youtube video. I was looking up Enneagram types to help with building characters in a story I'm writing and after hitting this one I feel strangely vulnerable and exposed lol.
This was a great video. It's amazing that you related every feature of a 9type with supporting video clip and a note. That was very helpful to understand the type deeply.
"Average Nines are stubborn and out of touch with their anger" 3:36 🙎 Oh okay so you want me to wear more? 👨 We want you to *express* yourself, ok? 🙍 _[visible confusion]_ lmao
I've been studying the enneagram for writing purposes. Someone said you know which type fits you when the description makes you feel uncomfortable and starts to hit a little too close to him. I now hate that person.
my dad is a 9 and my mom is a 2. the thing that upsets my mom when they argue, is that she doesn’t feel heard. my dad kind of just shuts off. he doesn’t even seem like he’s there! that crazy stupid part reminded me of it.
There are things in every Type that everyone can relate to. But one should, more or less, stand out for you above the rest. For whatever it’s worth, I’ve heard many places that if you can’t identify with a specific Type, there’s a good chance you’re a Six or Nine. That’s not a hard rule but might be a good place to start. Check out the Type Descriptions on the Enneagram Institute website… www.enneagraminstitute.com/type-6 www.enneagraminstitute.com/type-9 Also (and this is purely anecdotal) I’ve personally known a couple people who claimed to “identify with all the Types”, but I would bet the lives of my children that they’re Fives. There’s something in them that wants more data, or that has a harder time “personally” connecting with only one specific Type. That may not be you, just throwing it out there.
This video is excellent, thank you! As an actress I look into eneatypes during the creation process, and you described the journey a person goes through in their life, which is what character does in a piece.
Thanks! I have a friend (Elisabeth Wurm) that does Enneagram coaching/training specifically around acting and how to use it to understand character development. You should check her out! www.notjustenneacoach.com/
I just love how nines are able to shred some light and sense of undestanding to others; I´ve been complimented for that quality many times in my life and also love to see the relief in others when they feel truly seen. Felt super indentified with the reasons behind our actions along the video, and realisiing the growth I´ve done so far,; it´s nice to finally have something that makes me feel undestood just as much as I love giving that feeling. Thanks so much for your effort in this video!! ❤️ Lots of love from México :)
As a One who loves chronological order, it has been very difficult for me as well. Unfortunately I’m at the mercy of the TH-cam copyright clearance gods. But fear not… Type Seven coming soon!
The combination of the videos and excerpts was amazing! I don’t know how you were able to put this together but thank you so much! I’m a nine as well and this video was just so awesome!
My test came back that I'm a nine, but I know I perform quite well under pressure and have good problem solving skills and am resourceful. It's just when it comes to personal choices where I'm the one affected that I have trouble making decisions....
"Tests" are a good way to get you pointed in the general direction, to narrow down the options. But I wouldn't rely on one specific result as the Gospel Truth of your Type. What I generally recommend is that people take their top rankings and review the full Type overviews for each one. Personally I like the Type Descriptions on the Enneagram Institute website. www.enneagraminstitute.com/type-9 For most people, one (maybe two) will "jump out and punch you in the face". Then you can do further digging from there.
Another amazing video! Especially loved Chantry from What If and Frodo Baggins (whom many people have told me is a six, while I, as a Nine, knew he was a Nine). Will you ever do videos of celebrities' Enneagram numbers?
What If is one of my favorites (Fool’s Gold FTW!). And Frodo is fo sho a Nine! No plans to do celebrities, but I do want to do some case study videos taking deeper dives into specific characters.
@@brianjoubert5241 I don't understand how this can be when Samwise is one of the most obvious 6's I've ever seen portrayed in literature. He's loyal to fault, somewhat paranoid, prepared for everything, sees things as quite black and white, and fits into the general 6 mindset very well. Frodo, meanwhile, is a much more passive person-calm, wise, observing nuance, and longing for peace. He does not initiate the quest to destroy the ring-in fact, he sits on the knowledge that he may possess a ring of power for about 17 years without doing anything. I can't imagine any 6 could do that without going insane imagining what might happen while such an object was in their possession. Frodo did not. In the council determining who was to take the ring, it was only when he saw how much strife it was causing that he stepped forward to take the burden, so as to end the conflict and bring peace not only to the council, but to the whole of Middle Earth. It was Frodo who had compassion for Gollum, trusted him somewhat, and was charitable to him (meanwhile Samwise, a textbook 6, slept with one eye open, and constantly made his distrust known to Gollum). I could think of more examples all day, but I think the strongest proof against Frodo being a 6 is to look at Samwise, and then compare the two.
@@miriamhodges5632 I didn't explain myself properly. Frodo is definitely a 9. That much is obvious to me, being a 9 myself. What I was saying is that I think the reason why people mistake him for a 6 is due to the fact that 9's become 6-like when under stress. 😊
Aaaaaah muchas gracias por hacer estos videos, es genial verte representado en personajes de series. Nunca había prestado atención a los tipos de personalidades, hasta ahora que estoy interesado en conocerme mejor. Soy un 9 🤧💞 Seguiré viendo todos tus videos, saludos desde México. 😁
I binged all your videos today, and was really moved emotionally by a several of them. Thanks for creating this content!! I'm a 9 myself, so I'm commenting on the nine video. Fred Rogers and Lincoln made me cry. And of course sadness in the 4 video made me cry. I'm a small group discussion leader in a "School Of The Heart". We use the enneagram (Road Back to You) along with other books and topics to investigate emotions, attachment styles, how to grow, etc. I'm recommending your videos to our class :) I'm very curious, what type are you??
I’m so glad to hear that you enjoyed the series! Stay tuned for Round 2, I’m working on it now. I’m a One. It’s funny, I actually didn’t connect much with Ian Cron’s the road back to you (although I did use it in the videos) because he focuses more on the one as perfectionist, and I much more identify with the one as reformer. Figuring out that I’m a sexual subtype and not self-preservation as I previously thought helped clarify that for me. School of the Heart sounds interesting… Growth FTW!
I’m working on another project right now but plan to do more videos at some point. I did a series of Enneagram Shorts not too long ago, so you can check those out if you haven’t already seen them.
“goddamnit what do you want?!” “…i have to go” NOOOOO ITS TOO TRUE😭💀 also chidi is literally me lmao. and cal not saying anything and then leaping out of the car to avoid confrontation? please😭💀
I'm a 9 and my second highest number is 5 also. I feel like it covers different areas of my life. When I'm around people I'm more of a 9. When I'm alone I go into 5 mode. I love learning!!!!!!!
I'm a strong 4 (w5) but after watching this I feel like I relate to 9 so much. Which makes me feel like I very much relate to a 9w8 after watching all of your videos. What do you think is the correlation? Your work on this entire series is amazing BTW. I'm hoping for more videos to come!
Thanks! I’d have to think about the correlation. Could be subtype related. Do you know your Instinctual Variant? Have you watched the Four/Nine subtype videos?
My mum is a enneagram 9, an amazing woman who has been through way too much. I always wondered why she wouldn't leave our abusive step dad growing up, it makes a bit more sense now know her type
Since reality is based on each individual perception of each individual human ,and because each human is different it would be impossible to actually quantify a "general reality".. The ravings of a schizophrenic may seem completely unreal to others but to the schizophrenic it is reality. And because there are no preset levels of importance, we create our own ideas of it by placing our own values on what we decide to judge. A standard of relative importance does not exist and our value systems are usually based on our own physical needs which is usually what we refer to as reality.
Chidi is one of those fictional characters that has the traits of many different types. Those clips I used worked well in the Nine video, but I could just as easily use clips of him in the next Five or Six video. Personally, I think Leslie Knope from parks and rec is another character like that. Is she a one, or a two, or three? Yes. Certainly some the characters are unambiguously one Type (Javert, Umbridge, Annie Wilkes from Misery, Frank TJ Mackie from Magnolia, etc...), but as I’ve been doing this series and talking to different people about different characters, so much of them act like a Rorschach test. I’ve had people make suggestions for certain characters as certain Types that, in my opinion, are *clearly* something else (I'll fight to the death that Hermione is a One, Michael Scott is a Two, Ron Swanson is a Five... although I love to argue about almost anything). At least for this series, the character's "actual" Type isn't all that relevant (although I think most of them align more or less where they should be). It's more about giving a general "flavor" of what each Type is all about. The biggest example is that I used a George Costanza clip (clearly a Six) in the Three video. "It's not a lie if you believe it" is, to me, the quintessence of an unhealthy Three and was just too perfect not to use. Don't worry though, George pops up again in the Six video where he's supposed to be.
I don’t know what “Cap” is and I don’t use Meyers Briggs in this series, but I’ve got a list going for the next round if you’ve got any suggestions for 9w8 characters with the traits you have in mind.
TOTALLY a 9w1 here, loved by many, BUT what do I do for meaningful work as a single lady??? Help? My résumé is scattered! I can do everything except ONE SINGLE THING well enough to land a vocation … carry Frodo’s ring?? 🤣
@@TypeCast Sam offered to help, but Frodo took the charge!! I meant, I would BE Frodo in this instance! As a single woman, without a strong leader to direct me and I find I can do many things … just not things that make money … say “the best violin maker,” “the finest cook,” etc. I’m a good glue for many broken mosaic pieces. I can be a great jack-of-all-trades where a small company needs someone to handle complaints, dump the trash and promote the business! I’m an ex-graphic artist but the trade changed while I was off raising a family. I have to create my position.
In short, Fours are striving to feel unique/special. They have deep feelings and can be perceived as melancholy/morose, but they help bring a creativity and authenticity to the world. Fives are striving to feel detached. They want more data and can be perceived as emotional/physically distant, but their detachment can also bring an objectivity and clarity to the world. I'd recommend you check out the Enneagram Institute Type descriptions. www.enneagraminstitute.com/type-4 www.enneagraminstitute.com/type-5 Or (and I'm biased of course), watch the Four and Five videos in this series. That'll give you a pretty good idea of what each is generally about.
Lol, Chidi’s a Rorschach Test. Here’s what I said in a previous comment thread… I think Chidi is one of those fictional "hybrid" characters that has the traits of multiple Types in a combination that a normal human wouldn't have. I could use clips of him in several of my Type videos (as you say, Six and One for sure), and they would make just as much sense. It just worked out to use him in Nine video this time. I’m sure there’s some great Five-ish clips of him as well.
I think he’s a character that could go several different ways. I’m sure I could find plenty of clips to put him into the six video as well. for me it’s more about just using a couple select clips to demonstrate specific things about the nine for this particular video. but I have thought about doing a video or series at some point that looks at ambiguous characters. I think Leslie Knope from Parks and Recreation is a good example.

Really good video, and I love all the other enneagram videos you've made, but this is annoying me a lot: Chidi Anagonye as a type 9? That's just the most non-sense typing I've ever seen, Chidi is literally the most perfect example of a type 6. Like, the first example of Chidi that you put in the video literally shows the fear of type 6s and their distrust of their own ability and reality.
Thanks! A great case can be made for Chidi as a Six, and I'm sure I could find Six quotes from Enneagram books to use over those same exact clips (and they'd work just as well). However, the "actual" Types of the characters in these clips are irrelevant. There's several places where I've purposely used a character in the "wrong" video (i.e. George Costanza in my first Three video, despite him being 100% a Six). This channel isn't about Typing specific characters. It's about using individual clips/scenes to paint an overall picture of what each Type is all about. I only put the labels (film/character names) at the front of each clip for the benefit of people who aren't familiar with them. When I originally conceived of this project, it was going to be just straight clips... no graphics of any kind. Then a bunch of people I showed it to all said some version of, "What was the character in that one clip? I've never seen that film." So I added the labels. It's a Catch-22 situation for sure. It certainly gives the impression that I'm labeling specific characters as specific Types, but I'm not. I need to record a video as Intro for my channel explaining all that, lol.
sometimes, as a 952 I feel really alone in the world. that is, until I see videos like this that make me feel so beautifully seen and valued that I go kinda speechless. walter mitty is my all-time favourite film because it gave me my very first insight into what it feels like to actually be seen and loved for all that I am - rage, sensitivity, daydreaming included - and I thank you for giving me a safe place to come and just, 'be', when the world feels harsh 🤍
That’s great to hear and is very encouraging! I’m so glad you were able to connect with it in such a deep way! Nines bring a much needed harmony to the world. And Walter Mitty is one of my all time favorites, too!
@@lsjt8924 I don't think Fours necessarily have the market cornered on loneliness. A Four might not feel "seen" because their special-ness isn't being appreciated, but a Nine could also not feel seen because Nines can be almost literally invisible if they don't assert themselves.
@@lsjt8924 I definitely agree with this (Type Cast’s reply) and would add that my heart triad wound is definitely more in needing to feel needed than needing to feel unique and revelling in being special or creatively different from everyone else. But yes, it took me a while to differentiate whether I was a 952, 962, 954, or 964 (I actually mistyped myself as a 2 for a long time!). But thank you for the compliment, 4s have a depth that I absolutely admire ☺️

Videos like this help me to realize what a healthy nine can look like and what I can strive to be.

I’m in love… with this comment. And growth/boundaries FTW!
I had to intervene more than ones in a fight. I would go numb, cry but something inside me had enough and now I am able to stand up and put into the argument instantly.

im the kind of 9 that never gets worried about making decisions because i just go along with what other people tell me to do 😭😭
It’s not necessarily a bad strategy if it works for you!
I just watched all of these videos and I honestly felt like I related to every single type. How disjointed must i be to think that lol
There are things in every Type that everyone can relate to. But one should, more or less, stand out for you above the rest.

I binged all your videos today, and was really moved emotionally by a several of them. Thanks for creating this content!! I'm a 9 myself, so I'm commenting on the nine video. Fred Rogers and Lincoln made me cry. And of course sadness in the 4 video made me cry.
I'm a small group discussion leader in a "School Of The Heart". We use the enneagram (Road Back to You) along with other books and topics to investigate emotions, attachment styles, how to grow, etc. I'm recommending your videos to our class :)
I'm very curious, what type are you??
I’m so glad to hear that you enjoyed the series! Stay tuned for Round 2, I’m working on it now.
I’m a One. It’s funny, I actually didn’t connect much with Ian Cron’s the road back to you (although I did use it in the videos) because he focuses more on the one as perfectionist, and I much more identify with the one as reformer. Figuring out that I’m a sexual subtype and not self-preservation as I previously thought helped clarify that for me.
School of the Heart sounds interesting… Growth FTW!
Dude looking over your videos again and you gotta come back to the youtube game 😭 need more 9 vids!!
I’m working on another project right now but plan to do more videos at some point. I did a series of Enneagram Shorts not too long ago, so you can check those out if you haven’t already seen them.
Young Peacemakers are naïve. Elder Peacemakers are dope as fuck.
The Nines abide.
If it is true that being a 9 is like a fine wine, I'll celebrate it as my hair recedes and my teeth is countable by one hand.

Thank you for sharing this! 🙂
Thanks for watching!
This is too relatable it hurts
Hurts so good hopefully!
I would like to add someone to the list: Gus Johnson's "Dad Stuck On Roof" character
I’ve never heard of him. Is it a sketch show?
@@TypeCast lol kind of
Yesss, the embodiment of “this is fine” lol!
“goddamnit what do you want?!”
“…i have to go”
NOOOOO ITS TOO TRUE😭💀
also chidi is literally me lmao. and cal not saying anything and then leaping out of the car to avoid confrontation? please😭💀
Sounds like we've found the winner then, lol.
Amazingly helpful. I can't believe I'm stuck between 5 and 9.
What would you say is ultimately more important to you… Being useful and informed or having peace in your life?
I'm a 9 and my second highest number is 5 also. I feel like it covers different areas of my life. When I'm around people I'm more of a 9. When I'm alone I go into 5 mode. I love learning!!!!!!!
It’s an interesting combination for sure!
I'm a strong 4 (w5) but after watching this I feel like I relate to 9 so much. Which makes me feel like I very much relate to a 9w8 after watching all of your videos. What do you think is the correlation?
Your work on this entire series is amazing BTW. I'm hoping for more videos to come!
Thanks! I’d have to think about the correlation. Could be subtype related. Do you know your Instinctual Variant? Have you watched the Four/Nine subtype videos?
This is soooo accurate wow.
I'm glad it resonated with you!
1:29…That’s my daughter and her nine room
At least she’s at peace with the rats.
16:41 okay..well that hit a bit close lol
17:57....also this
Sounds like we got a Nine on our hands then?
@@TypeCast Yup ;-; thxs for the video btw. It’s amazing how yall can know people so well.
That's why I say there's truth in the Enneagram... because it works.
My mum is a enneagram 9, an amazing woman who has been through way too much. I always wondered why she wouldn't leave our abusive step dad growing up, it makes a bit more sense now know her type
I know of similar situations as well. It can very difficult for Nines to “muster the courage”, but it’s beautiful when they do!
A superb video. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Type nine alert:
Winni the Pooh
Kenshiro from fist of the north star
When I saw this my jaw dropped!
Oh bother…
this video hurts lmao
As they say in AA, “The first step to recovery is admitting you’re a Nine.”
@@TypeCast Truer words have never been spoken.😂
Iknr
Since reality is based on each individual perception of each individual human ,and because each human is different it would be impossible to actually quantify a "general reality".. The ravings of a schizophrenic may seem completely unreal to others but to the schizophrenic it is reality. And because there are no preset levels of importance, we create our own ideas of it by placing our own values on what we decide to judge. A standard of relative importance does not exist and our value systems are usually based on our own physical needs which is usually what we refer to as reality.
Nihilism FTW!
this is amazing
Thanks!
I feel like Chidi is more of a 5 or 6
Chidi is one of those fictional characters that has the traits of many different types. Those clips I used worked well in the Nine video, but I could just as easily use clips of him in the next Five or Six video. Personally, I think Leslie Knope from parks and rec is another character like that. Is she a one, or a two, or three? Yes.
Certainly some the characters are unambiguously one Type (Javert, Umbridge, Annie Wilkes from Misery, Frank TJ Mackie from Magnolia, etc...), but as I’ve been doing this series and talking to different people about different characters, so much of them act like a Rorschach test. I’ve had people make suggestions for certain characters as certain Types that, in my opinion, are *clearly* something else (I'll fight to the death that Hermione is a One, Michael Scott is a Two, Ron Swanson is a Five... although I love to argue about almost anything).
At least for this series, the character's "actual" Type isn't all that relevant (although I think most of them align more or less where they should be). It's more about giving a general "flavor" of what each Type is all about. The biggest example is that I used a George Costanza clip (clearly a Six) in the Three video. "It's not a lie if you believe it" is, to me, the quintessence of an unhealthy Three and was just too perfect not to use. Don't worry though, George pops up again in the Six video where he's supposed to be.
Cap istp 9w8 are a different breed and act little to nothing like the traits listed in the video.
I don’t know what “Cap” is and I don’t use Meyers Briggs in this series, but I’ve got a list going for the next round if you’ve got any suggestions for 9w8 characters with the traits you have in mind.
@@TypeCast "cap" is slang that essentially means "bulls**t"
Just for future reference
Lol, well that escalated quickly.
I feel so attacked rn
I can live with that.
TOTALLY a 9w1 here, loved by many, BUT what do I do for meaningful work as a single lady??? Help? My résumé is scattered! I can do everything except ONE SINGLE THING well enough to land a vocation … carry Frodo’s ring?? 🤣
Well Samwise is more of a Two, so…
Seriously though, what are passionate about? What would your dream job be if you could create it?
@@TypeCast Sam offered to help, but Frodo took the charge!! I meant, I would BE Frodo in this instance! As a single woman, without a strong leader to direct me and I find I can do many things … just not things that make money … say “the best violin maker,” “the finest cook,” etc. I’m a good glue for many broken mosaic pieces. I can be a great jack-of-all-trades where a small company needs someone to handle complaints, dump the trash and promote the business! I’m an ex-graphic artist but the trade changed while I was off raising a family. I have to create my position.
Can someone explain me the difference between 4s and 9s?
In short, Fours are striving to feel unique/special. They have deep feelings and can be perceived as melancholy/morose, but they help bring a creativity and authenticity to the world. Fives are striving to feel detached. They want more data and can be perceived as emotional/physically distant, but their detachment can also bring an objectivity and clarity to the world.
I'd recommend you check out the Enneagram Institute Type descriptions.
www.enneagraminstitute.com/type-4
www.enneagraminstitute.com/type-5
Or (and I'm biased of course), watch the Four and Five videos in this series. That'll give you a pretty good idea of what each is generally about.
7:08 OMFG
I know... Ryan Gosling is awfully delicious.
I related to all the healthiest AND unhealthiest traits, but not the average ones... wtf does that mean?
Well, at least you average to be…. Average.
Type 5 when?
You can check out my Type 5 video here: th-cam.com/video/unhtLPJ4hPw/w-d-xo.html
@@TypeCast your video is impermissible in my country for whatever reason.
Sorry about that! TH-cam blocks certain videos in certain territories depending on the copyright claims.
Wouldn't Chidi be type 5?
Lol, Chidi’s a Rorschach Test. Here’s what I said in a previous comment thread…
I think Chidi is one of those fictional "hybrid" characters that has the traits of multiple Types in a combination that a normal human wouldn't have. I could use clips of him in several of my Type videos (as you say, Six and One for sure), and they would make just as much sense. It just worked out to use him in Nine video this time.
I’m sure there’s some great Five-ish clips of him as well.
I'M JERRY?!?!
Don’t feel too bad, I’m Thanos and Dolores Umbridge. At least you get to be Mayor someday.
I think Cheety was a 6, not a 9.
I think he’s a character that could go several different ways. I’m sure I could find plenty of clips to put him into the six video as well. for me it’s more about just using a couple select clips to demonstrate specific things about the nine for this particular video. but I have thought about doing a video or series at some point that looks at ambiguous characters. I think Leslie Knope from Parks and Recreation is a good example.
9w8 here
Hey there!
chidi is a 6 (maybe a 1) tho

Also, for what it's worth, Nine has a One wing and is connected to Six, so...
Seems like im 9
Glad I could help with your self discovery.

Really good video, and I love all the other enneagram videos you've made, but this is annoying me a lot: Chidi Anagonye as a type 9? That's just the most non-sense typing I've ever seen, Chidi is literally the most perfect example of a type 6. Like, the first example of Chidi that you put in the video literally shows the fear of type 6s and their distrust of their own ability and reality.
Thanks!
A great case can be made for Chidi as a Six, and I'm sure I could find Six quotes from Enneagram books to use over those same exact clips (and they'd work just as well). However, the "actual" Types of the characters in these clips are irrelevant. There's several places where I've purposely used a character in the "wrong" video (i.e. George Costanza in my first Three video, despite him being 100% a Six).
This channel isn't about Typing specific characters. It's about using individual clips/scenes to paint an overall picture of what each Type is all about. I only put the labels (film/character names) at the front of each clip for the benefit of people who aren't familiar with them. When I originally conceived of this project, it was going to be just straight clips... no graphics of any kind. Then a bunch of people I showed it to all said some version of, "What was the character in that one clip? I've never seen that film." So I added the labels.
It's a Catch-22 situation for sure. It certainly gives the impression that I'm labeling specific characters as specific Types, but I'm not. I need to record a video as Intro for my channel explaining all that, lol.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Indeed
CRAP!
Indeed.
sometimes, as a 952 I feel really alone in the world. that is, until I see videos like this that make me feel so beautifully seen and valued that I go kinda speechless. walter mitty is my all-time favourite film because it gave me my very first insight into what it feels like to actually be seen and loved for all that I am - rage, sensitivity, daydreaming included - and I thank you for giving me a safe place to come and just, 'be', when the world feels harsh 🤍
That’s great to hear and is very encouraging! I’m so glad you were able to connect with it in such a deep way! Nines bring a much needed harmony to the world. And Walter Mitty is one of my all time favorites, too!
Gotta say though… this sounds veeeeery 4ish.
@@lsjt8924 I don't think Fours necessarily have the market cornered on loneliness. A Four might not feel "seen" because their special-ness isn't being appreciated, but a Nine could also not feel seen because Nines can be almost literally invisible if they don't assert themselves.
@@lsjt8924 I definitely agree with this (Type Cast’s reply) and would add that my heart triad wound is definitely more in needing to feel needed than needing to feel unique and revelling in being special or creatively different from everyone else. But yes, it took me a while to differentiate whether I was a 952, 962, 954, or 964 (I actually mistyped myself as a 2 for a long time!). But thank you for the compliment, 4s have a depth that I absolutely admire ☺️
@@TypeCast Also I just realised I was committing a mortal sin in that I wasn’t subscribed to your channel yet! This error has been corrected and I profusely apologise 😍
