“Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them to
become what they are capable of being.”

JOHANN WOLFGANG VON GOETHE

Advocates are the rarest personality types of all. Still, Advocates leave their
mark on the world. They have a deep sense of idealism and integrity, but
they aren’t idle dreamers – they take concrete steps to realize their goals
and make a lasting impact.

and quite versatile. For example, Advocates can speak with great passion
and conviction, especially when standing up for their ideals. At other times,
however, they may choose to be soft-spoken and understated, preferring to
keep the peace rather than challenge others.

Standing Up for What’s Right

Advocates generally strive to do what’s right – and they want to help create
a world where others do the right thing as well. People with this personality
type may feel called to use their strengths – including creativity,
imagination, and sensitivity – to uplift others and spread compassion.
Concepts like egalitarianism and karma can mean a great deal to
Advocates.

Advocates may see helping others as their purpose in life. They are
troubled by injustice, and they typically care more about altruism than
personal gain. As a result, Advocates tend to step in when they see
someone facing unfairness or hardship. Many people with this personality
type also aspire to x society’s deeper problems, in the hope that
unfairness and hardship can become things of the past.

Nothing lights up Advocates like creating a solution that changes

people’s lives.

Connecting with Others (and Themselves)

Advocates may be reserved, but they communicate in a way that is warm

and sensitive. This emotional honesty and insight can make a powerful
impression on the people around them.

Advocates value deep, authentic relationships with others, and they tend to
take great care with other people’s feelings. That said, these personalities
also need to prioritize reconnecting with themselves. Advocates need to
take some time alone now and then to decompress, recharge, and process
their thoughts and feelings.

The Cost of Success

At times, Advocates may focus so intently on their ideals that they don’t
take care of themselves. Advocates may feel that they aren’t allowed to rest
until they’ve achieved their unique vision of success, but this mindset can
lead to stress and burnout. If this happens, people with this personality
type may nd themselves feeling uncharacteristically ill-tempered.

Advocates might nd themselves feeling especially stressed in the face of

con ict and criticism. These personalities tend to act with the best of
intentions, and it can frustrate them when others don’t appreciate this. At
times, even constructive criticism may feel deeply personal or hurtful to
Advocates.

A Personal Mission

Many Advocates feel compelled to nd a mission for their lives. When they
encounter inequity or unfairness, they tend to think, “How can I x this?”
They are well-suited to support a movement to right a wrong, no matter

taking care of the world, they need to take care of themselves too.
