Alhamdulillah, i do get things done (on time) and yes, tasks have to be done right- with organized thought, checklists, goals, etc. I re-read D and that profile IS more like me give or take. C and many other factors (not mentioned) do play a big role. :)

Wa iyakum. Thank you for your comment, FN. :) As you’ve shared, you’ll have a very challenging time growing (or starting) your business if you’re a high C. Start thinking like a D, focusing on Vision and not so much on getting things “right”.. but getting them done. Once you got them done, you can improve based on the feedback. Then use your C for systemisation after that.. coming up with procedures and checklists, so that you can delegate.

As entrepreneurs, this self-knowledge and flexibility in being able to model different profiles and think differently is very important… not in just you running your business but in you being able to understanding how different customers or clients think and behave… so that you can more effectively help them. Trust that helps.
And Ameen to your dua. :) Jzk.

Re-iterated a lot of what I already know but don’t always act upon, and also introduced me to some new thoughts. Looking forward to going through that resource list in my spare time. Thank you!

I couldn’t relate much to any of the given types until I read C (needs to be right). As an entrepreneur, I do EVERYTHING related to my businesses – attention to detail consumes my time and I have trouble delegating tasks which makes me overworked and frustrated. Also, it’s hard to listen to criticism, unless presented in a constructive manner. I have however, realized this and am starting to ‘let go’ a bit, hopefully not too late. May Allah reward you for your efforts and grant you (and everyone) success in this lifetime and the next. Ameen.
Sincerely,
F

Great series of articles, and really helpful. I am hoping you will write that bonus article on how to stop these behaviours, insha Allah. It would also be really helpful so please do, brother! I pray Allah accepts your efforts and helps us to implement the beneficial things we learn from them.

Shuaibu, thanks for your comment. Wa iyakum. You enjoyed reading and you got the message you needed, so where is the problem? ;) And don’t say it’s my writing! LOL.
Just joking. It is rare that we get what we need the first time. It’s completely ok with having to read a couple of time and piece things together, especially with something a bit technical like this article.

You’re welcome, Zulaikha. Thank you for your comment. Regarding the fear of failure, it’s about understanding that “failure” is a part of life, that making mistake is a part of growth on the journey of becoming your best self. There is no failure, only feedback. And separating your work from your identity. What you do can “fail”, but you’re not a failure. Work on your self-esteem, which is covered in the next part of in this series.

I covered quite a bit on fear and failure in Part 4. (read the comments as well)
