The Enneagram By the time the reader completes this book, they will have achieved self-reconciliation. They will have received the guidance to integrate all their wonderful qualities with the parts of themselves they have been denying. This may seem ironic, but the reader will use less energy to overcome the obstacles that stand between knowing themselves and who they want to be. They will use more energy to move more effectively and successfully into the world as a more complete and compassionate person. Their thirst for inner revelation will be satisfied, and they will be free to move forward into a life of harmony and wholeness. When Scott told me he was writing this book, I wasn't surprised. I had a genuine sense that Scott was the right person to guide the reader on this journey forward and on the bumpy road of personal growth. The journey of true and lasting transformation involves hard work, but I can attest that this effort will be the most important work the reader will undertake in their life.
