DISC is a personality test which was discovered to examine the behavior of individuals in their environment or within a specific situation (otherwise known as environment). It therefore focuses on the styles and preferences of such behavior.
DISC Refers to:
Dominance - relating to control, power and assertiveness
Influence - relating to social situations and communication
Steadiness (submission in Marston's time) - relating to patience, persistence, and thoughtfulness
Conscientiousness (or caution, compliance in Marston's time) - relating to structure and organization
Why am i talking about this? DISC is also reflective to one personal life.
Each of us will have all 4 in us but there will be 2 dominating factor. A "S" and "C" person tend to be the quieter person, a follower, the submissive one. A "D" and "I" person tend to be the opposite of a "S" and "C" person.. and this in short - makes a couple complete.
When 2 "I" person starts a relationship, the stronger "I" person will over shadow the other "I" person or when one of the "I" person starts giving in to the other "I" person, it will result in the other party losing his/her confidence.
when 2 "D" person starts a relationship, alot of conflicts will occur as both will want to make decisions in everything. When the more accomodating "D" person person gives in, he/she will eventually
when 2 "S" person starts a relationship, they will tend to keep everything to themselves as they will only speak out when they feel that it is "safe" to talk. When will that happen? most of the time.. never.
when 2 "C" person starts a relationship, they will calculate. calculate everything all the way down to the basic.
Within the norm, "D" and "I" person will be most suitable to be together with a "S" and "C" person.
a "I" and "S" person will be most suitable with a "D" and "C" person, vise verse.
That is why Most of the time we will be attracted to people that is opposite of us. it is to complete us, to fill up what we lack of.
I am a "DI" person. I like to make decisions and i want to make decision. I love to be in control. I love to influence people with my ideas, i love it when people heel my advices or listen to me when i speak. thats basically a "DI" person. When someone doesnt listen to me, i wouldnt feel good. I love to shine and be the "sparkling" person in a crowd. Thats why.. a person with "I" can only be friends with me. when 2 "I" person are friends, they will share alot of ideas, talk alot. but if 2 "I" person become partners, their either become competitive, or my "I" outshine his or his "I" outshine mine.
I have been in a r/s with another "DI" person. It wasnt horrible becoz i gave in. and guess what. I lost my self confidence, i lost my senses of making decision, i revolved my life around that person and i made him the most important person in my life. which eventually killed him becoz the burden was too much to bear. I was too dependent on him.
I have been in a r/s with another "I" person.. where this time round.. i didnt gave in. I killed him slowly which eventually he lost his self confidence because of that.
Because of all these experience, i realise that its best to find an "SC" person for myself.
I dun wanna.. "kill" anymore people with my character.
like what the fortune teller say..
"i am either too powerful or too giving"
When i give too much i lose myself, when i'm too powerful, i kill the other with my overpowering character.
i am just .. a difficult person to be with..
