Enneagram Type 1: Perfectionist, Reformer, Judge, Crusader or Critic
http://www.enneagram.net/type1.html
Perfectionist, Reformer, Judge, Crusader or Critic
Overview
You want to be accurate, thorough, fair and objective. More importantly, you want to be respectable, to do what is right and what you feel is appropriate. You see yourself as rational, orderly and principled. You would like others to see you as reliable, responsible and ethical. Your idealized image is that you are hardworking and do what is right.
Gifted with a strong sense of purpose, you have high ideals and like to follow protocol, policies and procedures. You are sincere, earnest and diligent. You like to excel and take pride in doing things well. You value honesty, integrity and objectivity. Conscientious and methodical you focus on paying close attention to detail. Earnest and hardworking, you are particular and constantly strive to improve. You take action from your heart because, for you, the heart is the only thing that is truly perfect.
You have a strong ‘internal critic’ that reminds you of what you should and shouldn’t do. At times, you can be judgmental and critical of others, telling them what you think is right. You behave this way because you want to help people avoid mistakes. You believe that there is only one way to do things and that is the right way. As a perfectionist, you feel that if something is worth doing, it is worth doing right. As a result, you are only satisfied with what appeals to your strong sense of what is moral. Idealistic, you naturally wish to educate others to help them improve themselves.
Life for you is about adhering to your strong internal set of standards. Sometimes, you wish that you could let go and have more fun. This can be hard for you to do unless you are on vacation because of your strong work ethic. You innately recognize that in most situations there are standard operational procedures. Privately, you may criticize yourself for your shortcomings far more than you ever criticize anyone else. Because you can be so hard on yourself, you long for positive feedback, serenity and happiness.
Need
You need to know what is expected of you so that you can act accordingly and excel. You want to know what is considered appropriate and to do things by the book to avoid making a mistake. You continuously strive for self-improvement and expect others to do the same. You always act in accordance with your high standards, moral beliefs, philosophies and principles, instead of basing your behavior on another person’s rules.
Avoid
You avoid impropriety, irresponsibility, high risks and/or extremes. Most importantly, you avoid expressing your anger, feeling that to do so is wrong or inappropriate. Underneath your attitude of moral superiority and need for correctness, you have a deep fear of being wrong, bad, evil or corruptible. You prefer what is practical, grounded and stable and avoid appearing silly or frivolous to others.
Virtue
Your integrity, wisdom and adherence to sound procedure can bring clarity and guidance to a confused world. You are a true pioneer with the ability to envision utopia and the discipline to put in the hard work necessary to make it happen. Like a White Knight, you are not afraid to act according to your strong convictions– even if your actions go against the beliefs of your parents, boss or society. You have a special gift for teaching and you enjoy helping people learn and improve.
Vice
Your vice is resentment because you work so hard to repress your negative emotions. You feel that showing overt anger demonstrates a loss of control, so you suppress your wrath when others are not working as hard as you and don’t feel the same level of responsibility that you do. At times, you can be self-righteous, overly strict and rigid. You can become irritable, nit picking and critical when others don't abide by your lofty moral code and need for procedures. Remember, that people think of you as a teacher, and the best teachers lead by example, not criticism.
Attention
Your attention goes outward, to the environment, creating improvements, correcting imperfections and righting what is wrong. In your search for what is perfect, you can become mired in details and lose sight of your original goal and intention. Often it is more important to compete a task than wait for perfection.
PGMA's Speech during the 106th Anniversary of the Martyrdom of Dr. Jose Rizal
Today, we are honoring Rizal. Our national hero is the most gifted Filipino who ever lived, truly the pride of the Malayan race.
A century ago, he made the ultimate sacrifice for the Filipino people, giving up his life at Luneta field. Jose Rizal’s martyrdom led to the creation of the Philippine Republic in 1898.
In the hundred years that have passed since Jose Rizal was martyred, the world has undergone rapid change.
Throughout the world, it is now clear the transparent, open and democratic societies give to the fullest opportunities for individual merit and effort to bloom.
These societies have created a culture that allow their citizens to use the advances that technology and Information Age have brought in order to create a better life for both individuals and collective society. In these societies, the result has been the development of mature politics, strong government institutions, and the generation of the material benefits undreamed of during Jose Rizal’s time. These are the main elements of a strong and modern society, the Strong Republic that I dream of for the Philippines. We’re still far away from that dream but it is within our reach.
Indeed, it’s ironic, that ours is the first Republic in Asia. But over the last decades, it has become one of the weakest, steadily left behind by its more progressive neighbors. The fundamental reason is the persistence of an outdated social system wherein vested interests and traditional politics have stunted development towards a strong and modern society. Thus, our country is now only a bit better but the category of backward countries wherein powerful, selfish interests are able to exploit poverty and ignorance to maintain the status quo or impede open progressive development.World Trade Center

The World Trade Center (sometimes informally the WTC or Twin Towers) was a seven-building complex in Lower Manhattan (New York City) that was destroyed in the September 11 attacks. The World Trade Center was designed by Minoru Yamasaki, using a innovative tube-frame structural design for the twin 110-story towers. The elevator system in the towers utilized large-capacity express elevators, which went to sky lobbies, along with local elevators serving individual floors. In gaining approval for the project in the early 1960s, the Port Authority of New York and New Jerseyagreed to take over the Hudson & Manhattan Railroad, which became the Port Authority Trans-Hudson (PATH). Groundbreaking for the World Trade Center took place on August 5, 1966. The North Tower was completed in December 1970, while the South Tower was finished in July 1971. Construction of the World Trade Center involved excavating a large amount of material, which was used to create Battery Park City on the west side of Lower Manhattan.
The complex, located in the heart of New York City's downtown financial district, contained 13.4 million square feet (1.24 million m²) of office space.[1] An observation deck was located atop the South Tower, while the Windows on the World restaurant was located at the top of the North Tower. Other World Trade Center buildings included the Marriott World Trade Center, 6 World Trade Center, which housed the United States Customs, and 7 World Trade Center, which was built in the 1980s. The World Trade Center experienced a fire in February 1975 and a bombing on February 26, 1993. In 1998, the Port Authority decided to privatize the World Trade Center, leasing the buildings to a private company to manage, and awarded the lease to Silverstein Properties in July 2001.
On the morning of September 11, 2001, al-Qaeda affiliated hijackers flew two Boeing 767 jets into each tower, in a coordinated suicide attack. After burning for 59 minutes, the South Tower collapsed, followed a half-hour later by the North Tower, with the attacks on World Trade Center resulting in 2,750 deaths. 7 World Trade Center collapsed later in the day, and the other buildings in the complex were also destroyed. The process of cleanup and recovery at the World Trade Center site took eight months. The first new building at the site was 7 World Trade Center, which opened in May 2006. The Lower Manhattan Development Corporation (LMDC), established in November 2001 to oversee the rebuilding process, organized competitions to select a site plan and memorial design. Memory Foundations, design by Daniel Libeskind, was selected as the master plan, which includes the 1,776 ft Freedom Tower, three office towers along Church Street, a memorial (designed by Michael Arad), and calls for Greenwich Street to be restored
