The Four Tendencies: The Indispensable Personality Profiles That Reveal How to Make Your Life Better by Gretchen Rubin
informative
reflective
medium-paced
I read this on the recommendation of my therapist and definitely found some useful info in it. In particular, I like the information-consequences-choice framework for appealing to a wide audience. I think there are a lot of things that affect tendency that she doesn’t address like race, gender, socialization, and mental health—the last of which I noticed in particular, since I think I was much more of an obliger before I was treated for anxiety, and now I am firmly an upholder. I don’t know if this measure of personality is quite as dramatically impactful as presented, but I think it can be useful to consider, especially in a work setting.
