Self-Awareness: The Hidden Driver of Success and Satisfaction

This book is great to learn your personality but doesn't apply it to ideal jobs, relationships, etc., very well.

Great work. It examines the study of 500,000 people from 94 counties (large sample size), their 123,000 personality combinations and the resulted 14 distinct human personalities. The advice that appealed to me the most was to become aware of what my personality traits are and focus on using them to my advantage. This idea contrasts sharply with the traditional self-help books where one is encouraged to change to resemble someone he/she will never become. The book investigates the reasons behind human personality, how and when it solidifies and why we can't change who we are beyond a certain point in our lives. Very intriguing. I highly recommend it.

In short, I liked the book. I took the test, found out I was an Innovator and found out who my antithesis is. All that being said, the iDISC is explained in laymen terms and makes a lot of sense. For those of us who are familiar and have used MBTI, this is along those lines and makes perfect sense.

Fun to read I really enjoyed the author's writing in this book. Dr. Bradberry has influenced me to learn more about myself and to explore the perspectives of others. I enjoyed the stories, understood the research, and the test that comes with the book is top-notch. I have benefited so much from this information I hope everyone who comes in contact with this information have the same revelations as I did.
