I love the Mark Twain quote, “The two most important days of your life are the day you are born, and the day you discover why.” If you are reading this, you have been born, but have you figured out why you are here? Mark Twain’s quote summarizes my passion for improving the quality of people’s lives by helping them discover who they are and why they are here. What a waste to walk the earth and not know your purpose!
I am grateful I got introduced to DISC in my twenties. I wish I had known about it sooner, though, as it would have saved me so much heartache in middle and high school. I would have realized I was different than a lot of girls because I fell into the 10 percent of the world’s personality trait, and I wasn’t a mistake. God made me this way!
DISC is a human behavior model, and you may be wondering how it can help you know why you are here. Well, DISC helps you understand how God made you. By knowing your unique wiring (Assertive, Animated, Attentive, or Accurate…D.I.S.C), you get insights into what you were made to do. As you learn your strengths, you find a path designed just for you.
Understanding your temperament, helps you communicate better, lead more effectively, manage your time differently, and gives you clear guidance as to what purpose you play in the big scope of things. The world needs all of us as we are designed, and when we try to be someone else, Kingdom opportunities are missed.
With guidance, coaching, and mentorship, you can find your purpose on your path and learn what areas you need to develop for it. Add the knowledge of Redemptive and Spiritual gifts, and you quickly realize you were put on this planet for a reason.
God needs each of us to fulfill His plans here on earth to bring His Good News to the world. No role or task is above or beneath another; they are simply different, just like we are. The more we study human behavior, the more compassion we have as we acknowledge differences. People don’t do things to irritate you; you are doing who they are.
Do you know your personality style? If you don’t, I have an outstanding assessment identifying whether you are a D, I, S, or C (Commander, Coach, Counselor, Conductor), and I then unpack and debrief you on your specific report. From there, we can dive deeper into your unique profile and passions to get you on the right path professionally, personally, and spiritually.
If you already know your DISC blend, I encourage you to look into Redemptive and Spiritual gifts within your style to help you figure out why you are here and what you should be doing for the Kingdom of God. I’m happy to chat about this with you!
If you are completely dialed in, please keep giving as the world desperately needs your light! Should you need some encouragement, give me a call. All of us need to stay in His Word to keep our spirits filled with the Truth.
As a parent or grandparent, I urge you to ensure your children and grandchildren know how they have been made. DISC offers a firm foundation of self and understanding of others. You can start with the assessment or my book, Leveraging Your Communication Style.
