Sevens want to enjoy life and be happy. Wanting to avoid emotional pain and feeling bored, Sevens stay busy and active, relying on their energy and enthusiasm, and a wealth of ideas and plans, to keep things lively. With a perpetually positive outlook and a fast pace, Sevens can be prone to stretching themselves too thin and not meeting their commitments, missing details and not taking care of problems that are in need of attention.

HOW PRINT® 7 CAN BE IN BEST SELF MORE OFTEN
§ Be careful about taking on more than I can reasonably handle. Even though I like to juggle, if I commit myself to too many things, I may not be able to successfully complete what I’ve started in the timeframe promised without burning myself out.
§ Listen more and talk less. Even though I can be very engaging and entertaining, if I shorten my stories, others will be better able to participate and chime in.
