62. The Difference Between Enneagram Type 2 and Type 9

<p>The confusion between the Type 2 and Type 9 is probably the most common mistyping pair I personally see in my business. <br/><br/>There are a lot of similarities between them including being very service-oriented, others first mentality, friendly, optimistic, and because of all of that, they can both sight of their own needs as they&apos;re helping everyone else. <br/><br/>At the same time, there are some key differences in their inner workings that&apos;s important to know if this is a pair you&apos;re stuck between. <br/><br/>Most Twos, if they were being honest, could admit that they can get almost anyone (that they want - they don&apos;t care about being liked by everyone) to like them. While a Nine wants to be liked, their priority is finding harmony, connection, and peace. <br/><br/>Nines have a tendency to idealize others and only see the good. Twos have an ability to see others deeply - their hurt, needs, and fragilities - and actually use it to feel closer to others and to feel needed. <br/><br/>Most Twos will walk the extra mile for those they care about and help in very practical ways, whereas a Nine is someone you&apos;d go to be comfort and reassurance, but may struggle to provide the practical help you need. <br/><br/>Listen in to get more clues into the difference between these two types to help you clarify your dominant type! <br/><br/>---<br/><br/>Was this helpful?
