(1/2) After seeing some conclusions from the soccer player page, it led me to conclude that there are still many among soccer fans who misunderstand what the enneagram structure chart really is and how this motivational structure manifests on a daily basis. If you think about it, this fact makes sense because there are very few Personality Database users who really have an interest in this ball-kicking motion show game. Either that or because football fans in general have little interest in analytical psychological theories that categorize various human behaviors into types. It's like a fan who is interested in typology is a rare person who is destined to like two subjects that are not at all sustainable. Talking about how I think other people's responses to his enneagram are inaccurate, I'll give my explanation as to why he's most likely a 9 and almost impossible to have a 2 as his core. N'golo Kante is one of the best playmakers who still plays an active role in playing in the Central Defensive Midfielder (CDM) position. Personality-wise, Kante is known as a very quiet person but friendly to anyone. He has a characteristic smile and is often used as a trait for his fans as one of the reasons to always love him (Fe in socionics, whether it's in the base or creative stack; show liveliness of expression in order to increase the happiness and positivity of the atmosphere). Despite his gentle personality, he can appear strong in the field without any ferocity remaining on his back. Athletes have a stereotype that gut signal acuity and appetite is a priority in exercise. But unlike other sports, football can destroy stereotypes of sportsmen because they are one of the few sports that anyone can play. Kante is a suitable example to represent that statement. In addition, he also has a hidden ego and does not have a strong desire to channel a good and diverse image to get the recognition of others. This alone was enough to eliminate the Heart Triad on its own. This possibility is even more impossible if you pay attention to what Claudio Naranjo explained about the initial concept of Enneagram 2. "Ennea-type 11, in this Fourth Way characterology is one that I have characterized through the paradox of an egocentric generosity and corresponds to the histrionic personality of DSM 111. Representative individuals are usually hedonistic, light-hearted and rebellious in the face of anything rigid or restrictions on their freedom. Early in the life of my first group in Berkeley a student, Dr. Larry Efron, summarized the characters in a collage of caricatures from William Steig, which he gave me on occasion of a birthday party. In the collage of Steig's caricatures, type I1 is represented by a clownish figure that contrasts with the struggling mountain climber that represents the hardworking and obsessional type I." The Enneagram generally refers to the dark side of our motivation, it can even be linked to a certain mental disorder. For Enneagram 2, he was associated with the basic concepts of histrionic personality disorder. Histrionic personality disorder is a disorder in which sufferers are hypnotized by the instinct to be the center of attention at extreme and often dramatic levels. Enneagram 2 does this with the egocentric generosity of the persona they create with the mutual expectation of the person concerned. This of course is not always carried out with their manipulative techniques but they have high expectations in getting the 'attention' from other people's reciprocity. Of course, people don't always practice their enneagram's innate structure of ego by behaving this way since every enneagram has its own healthy type regardless of the main idea of the function of this system. This is the healthy side of enneagram 2 according to source of enneagram gift (not that reliable though). "Healthy enneagram 2’s can recognize their ability to help others as they become more realistic about the wants of others. A healthy awareness of their limitations will empower enneagram type 2’s to make fewer but better commitments, knowing when to act or not. With new levels of health, enneagram two’s can live and interact beyond their need for validation, accepting that they are worthy as they are. As adolescents, enneagram type 2’s learn the fundamentals of sharing, probably even earlier than their peers. They can also recognize when others need help or feel upset, creating possibilities to make friends. They also develop an open mind while seeing potential friends in everyone, regardless of demographics." The healthy Enneagram 2 may look more like the typical N'golo Kante but they still have an element of validation desire or attention attached to their soul.
