Personality (Person Value)

Personality is another complex term to define. It describes a person’s regular behavior in the eyes of the relevant society. The society concerned causes such complexity because it is not universal. The particular values of society are what determine it. However, there is common etiquette for all. We discuss this below.

Figure 1: Personal Reinvention Key Elements: Personality

In order to create a Si and Ei as an acceptable direction, Si deals with the true orientation of the particular intent in its big-picture view, then Ei as the big-picture implication in other people’s views. The initiative, willpower, or drive to execute the chosen Si and Ei are the roles of Ci.

However, uncontrolled Ci leads to going off target, either with too much or too little of Si and Ei, thus destroying the intent. In order to harmonize Si and Ei with Ci, an Mi is required. Mi is the safety valve (a control) for Ci to stay within reasonable limits for Si and Ei implementation. Therefore, CiMi is the cross-deciding phenomenon among the four intelligences, which is why it combines with Si and Ei in the focal union to define the potency of an individual. We distinguish two focal unions as CiMi, Si, and CiLi, Ei, as detailed on the personality abilities page. These focal unions we recognize as Personal Influence-1 (PI-1) and Personal Influence-2 (PI-2), respectively.

Personality is complicated, yet it is crucial to personal reinvention, as Personal Reinvention discussed before. Complexity results from the reality that people can be born, raised, and live together but nonetheless exhibit different behaviors. What are the acceptable reasons?

Why do people act in the ways that they do?

This is the fundamental quest for this site. Answering this problem was a puzzle, which led to Personal Reinvention (PR) Link into The Ultimate Enterprise. Because every success, failure, or tragedy in the World is from a person’s influence. Aldous Huxley in the above quote confirms this: “two-thirds of our miseries springs from stupidity.” Such influence (like stupidity) is originating from the person’s imaginations. Imagination is “The ability to form mental images of things or events¹”. Therefore, imaginations are a person’s thoughts.

Unlike beasts, which have pre-programs controlling their habits, humans develop habits basing on a nurturing medium (agent)—that’s where humans gain their language and unique habits. Habits are generated from thoughts, initially to get orientation, and later that thought blossoms into public influence. The individual thought where an orientation achieved to act, we call Individual Spectrum (IS), and an influence to the public, we call Public Spectrum (PS). Let me characterize into notation these two important phenomena.

Individual Spectrum (IS) and Public Spectrum (PS) Notations

Personal Reinvention is where an individual character investigated and detailed into two planes; first plane is Individual Spectrum (IS) viz. Cognitive-Moral to Spiritual Intelligence and second is Public Spectrum (PS) viz. Cognitive-Moral to Emotional Intelligence. Notice that Cognitive-Moral attaches to both Spiritual Intelligence and Emotional Intelligence. In reality, they differ in their application. Consider Table 1: Ethics and Morals Comparison Chart below.

Table 1: Ethics and Morals Comparison Chart

Source: https://www.diffen.com/difference/Ethics_vs_Morals

 In similar referencing, Prof. Geoffrey C. Hazard, Jr. posited about the difference of law, morals, and ethics.

Ethics, Morals, and Legal Comparison

“Law, being the norms more or less recognized in all sectors of the community and distinctive in being expressed in written symbol and enforceable through the community’s collective mechanism of coercion. Morals, being the various subjective senses of right and wrong in the minds of individual members of the community and being distinctive in being incommunicable. Ethics, being norms of action and exemplification within a community,”².

Table 1: Comparison Chart of Ethics and Morals and Prof. Geoffrey C. Hazard, Jr.1 work well together to distinguish between ethics, law, and morals. This way, law and morals are community rules, whereas morals are an individual’s personal views. Ethics and law both are community norms; they are external moral controls.

For the sake of The Ultimate Enterprise notation, I prefer Morals to govern Cognitive Intelligence with Spirit Intelligence (Ci_Mi, Si) in the individual spectrum and Law to Cognitive Intelligence with Emotional Intelligence (Ci_Li, Ei) in Public Intelligence. I chose Law (Li) in favor of Ethics (Ei) to avoid confusion between Ei (Ethical Intelligence) and Ei (Emotional Intelligence).

Conclusion on IS and PS

Morals govern cognitive intelligence with spirit intelligence (Ci_Mi, Si) in Individual spectrum (IS), and law regulates cognitive intelligence with emotional intelligence (Ci_Li, Ei) in public intelligence (PS). Kindly read more about the succeeding details on IS and PS. This notation applies only when dealing with IS and PS only, while on a general discussion about Si, Ei, Ci, and Mi; Mi will represent morals, ethics, and law.

Personal Reinvention versus Self-Development versus Self Recovery?

The Ultimate Enterprise philosophy defines and distinguishes Self-Development, Self-Recovery, and Personal Reinvention as:

Self-Development (SD): cumulative trait development from infancy to maturity.

Self-Recovery (SR): re-imprinting virtues to recover prudence, and

Personal Reinvention (PR): trait scan as a scale to social influence.

Self-Development underlines an important phenomenon that human gain prudence during infancy towards adulthood such that, if any interference to this gradual growth, prudence will not be achieved. The second, self-recovery (SR), re-imprints virtues missed during growth to adulthood. Personal Reinvention (PR) is the programmed scanning of an individual to identify personal weaknesses that impede maximum power to render a trusting relationship to society, revealing room for conducting a Self-Recovery (SR) program if needed.

From now on, I prefer to use PR (Personal Reinvention) in favor of self-development (SD) or self-recovery (SR) because The Ultimate Enterprise is about mature individuals (adults) in a team. Therefore, if an individual is leading irregular habits, he needs SR after revealing a negative SD.

For those who seasoned a positive SD during raising, such that they are naturally prudent, I wish you thriving business and/or sweet carrier; otherwise, I welcome you to engage SR to realign to a prudent way of life. The Self-Recovery program is very sensitive in such that it will be attended by a third party—a specialist in NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), specifically noble-touch

Personal Values that Invent an Individual’s Diverse Habits

Let us start our discussion by finding personal values, e.g., the traits, attributes, and virtues that invent an individual’s diverse habits. These values cause life potentialities to either thrive, fail, or survive.

Researching on the fundamental quest (of why people behave differently?) I chose Imprints and Bio-Circuit’s reference. It is contested in the scientific realm. But it is powerful, casting light on the envisaged attributes (values) of human habits. The reference is fragile in the sense that it entails both the “soul” and “human body” sermons. The initial part (“The Soul”) can’t hold ground on open science, though it does in psychology. Psychology became contested between schoolers being classified as science. Quote “There has long been snobbery in the sciences, with the ‘hard’ ones (physics, chemistry, biology) considering themselves to be more legitimate than the’ soft’ ones (psychology, sociology).³” 

However, it met the demand of this book, viz., aspects of the Si, Ei, Ci, and Mi for Spiritual, emotional, cognitive, and Moral intelligence. Also, imprints and bio-circuits jointly detail substantially the Si, Ei, Ci, and Mi from their originality and mutation points. Most of the gurus of Organization Behavior have been using these terms (Si, Ei, Ci, and Mi) sometimes without source. The same gurus are shouldering this work, and I am obliged to use the same notations on this work. In particular, Si, Ei, Ci, and Mi sources are referred to from the work of Wilson, Robert Anton, on his Prometheus Rising ©1983⁴.

Intelligences 

In deep discussion, assigning imprints and bio-circuits as Si, Ei, Ci, and Mi looks unrelated because the former are characters in an adolescent time about an incumbent gained toward maturity, while the latter are transformed to include unique self-power in a matured social group. Using them profitably, they need conversion into intelligences, which means taking advantage to solve social challenges spiritual we face from every imprint and bio-circuit. Download an eBook to get a full treatment of the full Ultimate Enterprise philosophy. This way, their new representation will look rather transformed and empowered, such that:

The Bio-Survival Circuit is represented as Spiritual Intelligence (Si). That means, Si is the power to define and set a trusting bio-survival (sustenance) entity of a particular endeavor.

The Emotional-Territorial Circuit (Ego) as Emotional Intelligence (Ei). This means, Ei is the power to moderate an ‘ego’ (Emotions) of an incumbent,

The Time-Binding Semantic Circuit (Mind) as Cognitive Intelligence (Ci), meaning Ci as cognizing power to master his own environment, and,

The Socio-Sexual Circuit (Adult Personality) as Moral Intelligence (Mi), implying, the power to cushion our actions, values and intents.

However, imprinting and bio-circuiting offer a powerful understanding of human habits. They define precisely crucial attributes that distinguish people in their intent and productivity levels in business, thus offering leaders and managers tools to improve production while improving comfort across organizations. The first four imprints calibrate an important agreement union in all human-being interactions. This means one has to satisfy demands of these four imprints if acceptance has to happen. If not met, disparity happens. Let me call this phenomenon Personality Tetra Receptors (PTR).

Personality Tetra Receptors (PTR)

PTR (Personality tetra-receptor) marks very important points of amenity between the donor and the recipient. PTR is a cognitive ergonomics of all relationships—define cognitive ergonomics here. Recall from ancient times’ great works, by famous Greek Philosopher Aristocles Ariston (Plato was his nickname given to him because of his broad forehead), the Republic of Plato⁵ When working from his influential Academy for research and learning founded in 380BC, he posited four virtues that have been “hinges” (viz., cardines in Latin, thus “cardinal” in English), on which all other merits turn. They are: prudence (or wisdom), justice (or fairness), fortitude (or courage), and temperance (or self-control).

Virtues

Virtues are “the quality of doing what is right and avoiding what is wrong,” courtesy of www.WordWeb.info. Or a habitual and firm disposition to do the good.

PTR vs Four Virtues by Plato

On a closer look, the four virtues by Plato are qualities or competences of the PTR, viz.:

1. Spiritual receptor: its competences to achieve are Prudence (or wisdom),
2. Emotional receptor: its competences to attain it are Justice (or fairness),
3. Cognition receptor: its competences to attain it are Fortitude (or courage), and
4. Moral receptor: its competences to attain it is Temperance (or ethics).

While PTR marks points for agreeableness between the donor and the recipient. Virtues are qualities, calibers or competences of that amenity as scribed vividly by Plato. This similarity marks an epitome breakthrough on Personal Reinvention toward individual and public-self scanning capabilities.

In their essence, Plato went on categorizing these virtuous when he posited, “Wisdom is the leader: next follows moderation; and from the union of these two with courage springs justice.” ~ Plato, ibid.

These four virtues must operate together under the Prudence (wisdom) control to limit the notion by a famous Philosopher Aquinas who posted “It is not only what a person does but how the person does it. The person must aim at a good end and also make a right choice about the means. The moral virtues direct the person to aim at a good end, but to ensure that the person makes the right choices about the means to a good end, one needs practical wisdom⁶. Therefore, flaw in anyone or more of these four virtues we get what is called a “vice.”

Vice

Vice is a practice, behavior, or habit considered immoral, criminal, rude, taboo, depraved, or degrading in the associated society—Courtesy of www.Wikipedia.org.

Cardinal Virtues and Cardinal Vices

Cardinal virtues are opposite to Cardinal vices identified as folly, injustice, cowardice, and intemperance; their meaning applicable in the Ultimate Enterprise is:

Cardinal Virtues and Vices marks an important milestone in Personal Reinvention (PR) Link as being laying a solid foundation for the famous life thriving or suffering practices known as Virtuous Cycle and Vicious Cycle respectively discussed in Macro Leadership on a Big-Picture spectrum of an individual or an organization’s performance or commissioning. Here, I characterize Virtuous Cycle by Cardinal Virtues and Vicious with Cardinal Vices.

Let me define the virtuous cycle and vicious cycle, respectively, applicable to The Ultimate Enterprise.

Virtues Cycles and Vicious Cycle

Virtuous Cycle “is a chain of events in which one desirable occurrence leads to another, which further promotes the first occurrence and so on, resulting in a continuous process of improvement.⁷

A vicious cycle “is a chain of events in which the response to one difficulty creates a new problem that aggravates the original difficulty.” ⁸

In the same manner, they lay similar bases for Scarcity scarcity mentality and abundance mentality lifestyles discussed later, where scarcity mentality is the practice of Cardinal Vices and abundance mentality is the action of Cardinal Virtues.

Personality Intelligences Introduction

In the long run, PTR commands Personality Intelligences defined below:

Personality is a set of values composed of a particular behavioral imprint of an individual, providing their distinctive patterns from one another.

The Ultimate Enterprise Intelligence defines Intelligence inline to PTR (Personality Tetra Receptors):

Intelligence is the ability to make use of the Personality tetra-receptors (PTR) beneficially to all parties involved, viz., the donor and the recipient of a particular opportunity.

Having defined personality and intelligence separately, the bi-amalgamated term, viz., personality intelligence, is a beneficial use of PTR (personality tetra-receptor) on a particular opportunity.

Personal Intelligences

Using the intelligence definition above, the definition of the reframed circuits (gifts) in terms of intelligences applicable on this site takes a new form. First circuit (bio-survival) underlining Spiritual Receptor to a Spiritual Intelligence (Si), second circuit (Emotional-territorial) the circuit underlining an Emotional Receptor to an Emotional Intelligence (Ei), third circuit (Time-Binding Semantic), underlining Cognition Receptor to Cognitive Intelligence (Ci), and the fourth circuit (Social-sexual) underlining Moral Receptor to Moral Intelligence (Mi).

Let me define these new terms below, by incorporating Truth and Philosophy meaning.

Spiritual Intelligence (Si): is the power to explore and steer virtuous life by searching for knowledge and truth through divine revelation, experience, logic & reason, and intuition.

Emotional Intelligence (Ei) is the power to steer and use our emotions to decode and benefit physical universe and the nature of ultimate reality.

Cognitive Intelligence (Ci) is the ability to organize reasoning using deductive and inductive reasoning.

Moral Intelligence (Mi): is the study of principles and values, divided into ethics and aesthetics.

The imprinted gifts during growth towards maturity where a particular donor of an expected token can make use of the personal intelligences. Before the donor and the recipient understand each other to deliver the agreed pact, both parties have to analyze the offered token. The analysis is done through the thinking process, which is a source of all inventions and innovations in the world. Let me discuss the thinking process in relation to Si, Ei, Ci, and Mi.

Si, Ei, Ci, and Mi on Thinking Process

Figure 1 details the elements of personality maturity in a continuum starting with the fundamental intelligence attribute, viz., Si, as the leader of all others. In order to create a direction that is acceptable to both Si and Ei, Si deals with the true orientation of the particular intent from its big-picture perspective, and Ei deals with the big-picture implications from other perspectives.

However, the initiative, willpower, or drive to execute the chosen Si and Ei are the roles of Ci. However, uncontrolled Ci leads to go off target, either too much of action or too small of Si and Ei, thus destroying the intent. In order to harmonize Si and Ei with its Ci, a Mi is required. Mi is the safety valve (a control) for Ci to stay within reasonable limits for Si and Ei implementation. Therefore, Ci_Mi is the cross-deciding phenomenon among the four intelligences, which is why it combines with Si and Ei in the focal union to define the potency of an individual. We distinguished two focal unions as Ci_Mi, Si, and Ci_Li, Ei earlier. These focal unions we recognize as Personal Influence-1 (PI1) and Personal Influence-2 (PI2), respectively.

Habit creating Trust or Distrust

The focal unions, Ci_Mi, Si and Ci_Li, Ei are primary thinking processes of a particular human raising to a specific “motive” with different situations and constraints. The repeated “particular motives” the incumbent creates a routine called a “habit”. A consistent habit happening to different occasions and people, then TRUST or DISTRUST accumulates to the society. In each case, when trust or distrust achieved, that person sets an image on the public as the Mature Society Member (MSM) with full of marks on TRUST or DISTRUST mirroring the individual’s habit.

PR Elements (Personal Reinvention Elements) form a modular representation of human’s sources of habits in a simplified scenario. In the introduction, I asserted that human beings are different from beasts (any non-human animal) because of “the power to share reason.”. Reasoning positively is about utilizing well the Si, Ei, Ci, and Mi, implying that are the sources of differences between human beings and animals. Reasoning differs from individuals, which underlines an influencing power because some individuals are more reasonable than others. How can we calibrate this power? The answer to this calibration follows.
