We are back with another Enneagram number, type Six. This one is also not an easy number for me to write about. I feel like it should be since I am married to a Six, but I kept questioning myself out of fear that I would get it wrong. Now, I am acting like a six. A six is known as “The Loyalist”. They are trustworthy, they are honest and they will make you feel safe. They do tend to worry about making the right decisions and can become anxious easily. I don’t think that is a bad trait to have, though. Sixes can take these traits and they will make great leaders, employees and friends.
Retail for a Six: Charming Oaks - Sixes can get hung up on the “what ifs”. “what if I can’t find something to wear”, “what if they have nothing that fits me”. These could all be valid concerns for a six. So, the safest option for a six would definitely be Charming Oaks. It is one of the largest retailers in downtown which means they have a ton of inventory.
Restaurant for a Six: Mellow Mushroom - Sixes may question things, like “Is this the right decision”. Well, let me tell you what you will not question….pizza! You can’t walk into Mellow Mushroom and feel like you made a bad decision. The menu doesn’t change, they don’t run out of pizza, and it is always good! Sixes also enjoy their friendships and being part of groups, so grab some pizza to-go for your next group setting.
Bonus for a Six: Auburn Bank - A Six is called “The Loyalist”. When thinking about businesses that are “loyal”, I think about Auburn Bank. Auburn Bank has been apart of the Auburn community for over 100 years and that speaks volumes. They are dedicated, trustworthy and will check every box for the Type 6!
