The Enneagram test has taken the world by storm over these past few months. For those that don't know, this is a type of personality test that matches you to a number ranging from 1 to 9. Each number has a set of characteristics that best match your personality.

Enneagram 6's are the best type to be, but I'm pretty sure I have a biased opinion. So, if you are an Enneagram 6 too, you probably relate to one or more of these 17 characteristics:

We hang on to relationships/friendships for MUCH longer than we should because we hold on to the good we see in others. 

When we believe in something, we stick to it and will rarely change our ways. 

We are awful decision makers because we see an infinite number of options. 

We fear being abandoned by others and left alone. 

We are very anxious people because we want to do everything the "right" way. 

We are filled with compassion for others. 

We constantly need to be reassured of what we are doing. 

We wish we had a rule book for how to handle life's challenges. 

We are very hard workers who strive to do their best at everything. 

We are very good at deciphering between logic and emotion. 

We are very critical of ourselves because we constantly worry we have let others down. 

 We are very direct people, and we expect others to be direct with us too. 

 We thrive on stability and predictability. 

 We are always taking care of other people, sometimes to the point that we forget to care for ourselves. 

 We are very confident in some aspects, but very insecure in others. 

 We are workaholics. 

 We are incredibly loyal to the people we care about. 

In short, six's just need others to tell them they are doing a great job and that they are proud of us.

Happy Enneagramming!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
