Stumbled across a quote that hit me right in the chest:
Type 5: "True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing. And in knowing that you know nothing, that makes you the smartest of all." -- Socrates
This isn't just a clever quote that conveniently relates to enneagram theory, it hits right at the heart of how I feel about life. Whenever I truly embrace that nothing is knowable, that frees me to engage and act fully without fear - I can feel everything in my gut, and my head is left to simply observe and enjoy the ride. Whenever I feel the need to "pull back" into my head and reconstruct things there, I get fearful and I find it hard to truly act with confidence.
Any other positive affirmations related to any of the types, especially ones that you relate to?
