SENTINEL™ Emoting Style of Strength

• No pain is greater for them than betrayal.
• They keep diaries or personal journals.

"A most common emoting style. Behind trademark reserve and alluring attractiveness is an individual who is hard to know and harder to love. Trust is the wall that divides. Whether Sentinel trust is an open or shut case depends on how each person has evolved and adjusted to three personality-typical determinants: language, loyalty, and new experiences. Characteristic of a Sentinel is a crane calm look of time-suspended stillness or fixed concentration. None other portrays mind-at-work like them. Others are often surprised at the thoroughness and depth delivered, when they do respond and reply. No thought, no word, no action is more painful to these sensitive beings than "good-bye." So ingrained is their conviction that all good must come to an end that Sentinel may not risk "hello." If by nature they are skeptical and by choice, reticent, then one question begs answer. Is there a causal relationship between reticence and the fact that Sentinel suffers internal degenerative illnesses more often than others? What is eating Sentinel from the inside out?" ...

HEALER™ Thinking Style of Strength

• Avid readers, they prefer non fiction and biographies to fiction.
• They are keenly sensitive to noise and uncomfortable in messy environments.

"Their fame and repute is more constitution of horse and steel-willed determination than frail and retiring. In fact, they are much more substantial, in every regard, than they appear. Three common characteristics of Healer are: sensitivity to noise, aversion to mess and great need for privacy. Interestingly, Healer is either an avid fan of television and motion pictures, or an avid avoider of such. A propensity for getting too emotionally involved in the human dramas is their commonly cited reason for avoidance. For most people, the term heal connotes with practicing medicine. In terms of this style, heal means an active involvement in some people-benefitting service and practice. Regardless of the scale of their endeavour — science, medicine, arts, entertainment, literature or music; the Healer strength awakens and uplifts the human condition. Removing doubt is their specialty. One peculiarity of this Style of strength is fear of incarceration." ...

HEALER™ Working Style of Strength

• When they solve problems, they look at its effect and impact on the system as a whole.
• They have a natural talent for any field or endeavour where healing is involved.

"These are the ones who change or broaden perspectives. The following excerpts are less specific than indicative of how this Style of strength approaches jobs and tasks. Healers find it odd that when people stub their toe they get angry, curse and through hobbled grimace and gritted teeth ignore the pain. How much quicker the heal if that throbbing toe were held and its pain acknowledged. How much more pleasant the day if the pain were comforted by sympathetic hands. After all, no matter your shoe or the rocky path it is pointed your toe never lets your body down. If small this change in thought does seem, apply it in principle to larger scale living, as Healer would, and note what differences result with change of belief. When the body is sick or diseased the prescribed policy is to view the disease with winner-loser hostility. Rather than stiffening resolve and muscle, and steadying nerve to control the pain, rather than declaring all-out war against the invader, instead try flipping perspectives. Focus light on the body's plight. It is every bit in need of caress as a stubbed toe. Accept the pain. Validate its existence. The body system may be confused as to which is friend and which is foe — the body for allowing disease to enter or disease for daring. Wars are always confusing. As peace follows surrender in war, heal and cure follows surrender in body disease." ...
