Self-Understanding Part 4

Enneagram-ers can do a simple thing that gives them a reading on how they are doing and, at the same time, receive a glimpse into self-understanding.

We don’t have to be an Enneagram student to ask the following questions of ourselves:

  1. Am I becoming more tolerant of myself and others?

  2. Am I becoming more conscious of my ego’s demands?

  3. Today, did I take the path of least resistance in my decisions or was I conscious of them?

  4. Today, did I put energy into making the most conscious decisions?

  5. Am I in touch with my essence?

  6. Am I present?

  7. Today, did I live in my Holy Idea?

  8. Today, did I live in my true nature or out of my false self?

  9. Did I love to my soul’s fullest?


Spiritual practice: Answer the above questions for yourself, in a written monologue.

Self-inquiry: What reminds me to take stock of my spiritual progress?

Prayer: Dear God, I pray for the honesty and courage to take stock of who I am, who I have become, and who you are growing me to be. Amen.
