If by your psychotype, you are a person who appreciates novelty, it is easy for you to make a super order once, but it is hard to maintain it. Of course, you сan force yourself to repeat the cleaning. But for the hundredth time your brain, which hates routine, will “accidentally” forget, get “strangely” sick or go on strike. Monotonous activity does not just bring boredom — it literally sucks the life out of you. It is easier for you to solve a dozen non-trivial tasks, just not to make copies of what you already know.
You’d be surprised, but there are a lot of people who have a completely different view. They are no worse than you, and you are no better than them. If novelty intrigues, inspires and invigorates you, for them it is disorienting, confusing and alarming. Therefore, in an unfamiliar situation, they fall into a stupor and genuinely suffer. But in known territory, they are invaluable. When goals and plans are clear, and resources and authority are sufficient, such people are unstoppable. They are reliable, hard-working and responsible, sometimes even too much. Most importantly, they are happy to do exactly what is torture for you.
One with all his soul yearns to exponentially develop whatever he takes on. The other can’t wait to stabilize something. It’s not hard to guess that together you are doomed to conflict. We tend not to recognize and depreciate the opposite quality, which is in short supply. But with years of experience comes the insight that a kite is meaningless without a thread. So, too, all your creative-inventive power if productive only if there is someone who will carefully take your trophies, and without losing anything, carefully clean, sort and arrange them into a structure. It is a great fortune in business when alliances are formed where partners functionally complement each other, like Yin and Yang. Are you lucky in this sense or are you still carrying the entire load?
Sincerely yours,
