Hello. I really enjoyed reading this article. The lesson that I got here was reminds me of a quote from Abraham Lincoln, "You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time." What Tiger did was shameful, especially to how devoted his wife was to him. But as long as he learns his lesson, does not repeat the same mistake, and continue to focus on playing good golf, he will be able to move on from all of this and eventually grow to be a strong person again. Thanks for this article. :)

Kelvin, thanks for sharing your thoughts! As I understand it, all our personalities somehow fit into enneagrams. Personality type may indeed be what leads us to behave in the ways we do. Another way of looking at it, is to consider our basic human needs and how we go about to meet or even fulfill them. Some ways work, others don't work for us. Tiger-type-8 personality found ways that worked just fine in one discipline (golf), but the same Tiger-type-8 appears to have missed it by a long shot - no pun intended - in another discipline (intimate relationships). How come? "How many roads must a man walk down, before you call him a man? How many times can a man turn his head, pretending he just doesn't see?" I'm sure by now you might have guessed, "the answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind." Or in an enneagram? :-)

Hi Amit, thanks for your feedback. Glad you liked the post, and if it inspired you to take action (to finish something started a long time ago), well, it's any blog post writer's dream :-) Cheers and good luck,

Lana, thanks for your feedback and flowers. It's very freeing to see who we are and our behaviors as together yet separate. Doing something stupid doesn't make us be stupid :-) What inspired me initially was A Course In Miracles Quote: All human behavior is a loving response, or a cry for help.

Tiger Woods is a type 8 personality on the enneagram and that has led him to be dominant and compulsive in what he does.

We need to remember that he's only human and yet at the same time, condone what he has done.

Good writeup!

Hey Beat, I like what you mentioned about children and actors changing behaviour. I'm on par with what you've said in the way media portray information and the information we choose to absorb. I think I started writing something about this a long time ago but may never have finished it. I may have to do that now! .-= Amit Sodha - The Power Of Choice´s last blog ..4 Years And 6 Key Lessons From Blogging =-.

Beat I loved how you put it - your behaviour is not you. So simple but so profound. You indeed can always change your behaviour and make it reflect more of who you truly are. You have to know who you truly are first of course. Great post, thanks! .-= Lana - DreamFollowers Blog´s last blog ..You are NOT responsible for anything and how it can help you reach any of your goals. =-.
