June 9, 2021Notes taken:
Campaigners seek harmony in their lives and the surrounding environment, often trying hard to create something positive, and consequently feeling dejected because of all the evil in the world. People with this personality type tend to see things and actions from an idealistic perspective, rather than the prism of logic. They respond to beauty, morality and virtue rather than utility, effectiveness or value. Campaigners are the ultimate champions, fighting hard to preserve and protect all the good things in this world.
Campaigner personalities are usually characterized by high levels of enthusiasm, especially when it comes to things that spark their imagination – in such cases, Campaigners can be very energetic and convincing, able to easily convince other people to join their cause.
From the Campaigners’ perspective, authenticity and self-realization are far more important than materialistic rewards, and people should not be afraid to commit to something they truly believe in.
Campaigners are also likely to have difficulties dealing with routine, administrative matters. They are more interested in freedom and inspiration than security and stability, and this attitude is usually clearly visible – a Campaigner would rather try to come up with an interesting solution or an idea, no matter how difficult that is, than deal with simple yet boring tasks.
Finally, Campaigners are non-conformists, following their own path and trusting their intuition. Their talents are numerous, but they all rely on the Campaigner being given enough freedom. People with this personality type can quickly become impatient and dejected if they get stuck in a boring role, unable to freely express themselves – but when the Campaigner finally finds their place in the world, their imagination, empathy and courage are likely to produce incredible results.
Spontaneous, insightful and intensely emotional, Campaigners seem to be everywhere, even though they are relatively rare. It is safe to say that this is one of the most likeable and influential types – Campaigners tend to inspire people and get new friends everywhere they go. They seek harmony, but also fight evil and injustice wherever possible. People with this personality type are driven and cautious at the same time, combining these traits with ease.
. Campaigners live in a world of ideas and theories and are heavily influenced by their feelings. For them, how they do good is more likely influenced by a larger ideological framework rather than random opportunism. They feel best about themselves when they stand up against evil in all its forms.
Campaigners respect themselves most when they stand against injustice and cruelty. They want to see themselves as a benevolent force in the world. It doesn’t necessarily have to involve any big act – just a big idea. It can be about something as simple as dealing with a single child’s self-esteem to something as overwhelming as world hunger. The act of doing good might be personal or global – it all depends on the other factors in their lives. Succinctly put, they feel good when they do good.
Some good general advice for Campaigners is to get out of their heads every once in a while, in order to grow. Taking a step away from the theoretical and the ideal can go a long way in balancing Campaigners’ lives. There are hundreds of ways to reconnect with the physical, tangible world, such as meditation, playing a sport, dancing, doing yoga, eating mindfully, gardening, even having sex.
The trick is to reengage the physical senses in order to connect with the concrete world. Approaching the world with something as finite as touch or smell can rebalance the Campaigners’ drive for self-respect by helping them reconnect to that small and imperfect world of which they are a part. Such activities remind them that it’s okay to be human.
Campaigners naturally have an inclination to grow and to discover who they are. When Socrates reportedly advised his students to “Know Thyself”, the Campaigners among them certainly didn’t have to be told twice. Continued self- examination should aid Campaigners in focusing on their true selves and help to ensure their genuineness. From this reassurance of the nature of their genuine selves, they will find the self-confidence they need to move forward in life. Campaigners can restore their self-confidence by simply being who they are and doing what they do.
Having said that, there are many ways to accelerate the work of getting to know oneself better: seeking solitude, testing oneself by trying new and different things, critiquing different ideas and developing opinions, journaling, nurturing friendships... The list is endless. It will feel quite natural to Campaigners to go on deliberate journeys of self- discovery. From there, being true to who they are and maintaining this source of confidence is the next reasonable, organic step.
Every Campaigner should try to strengthen their critical thinking skills, using logic and rationality in situations that do not require an emotional response. This is not an easy thing to do for a personality type that is driven and inspired by emotions – however, this is one of the most important steps that a Campaigner interested in personal development can take.
People with this personality type are especially vulnerable to commitment issues (jobs, relationships, and education, and difficulties *real or perceived*) as they are very insightful and creative – unfortunately, this also means that they rarely have any difficulties coming up with justifications for their actions and convincing themselves and everyone around them that this is the right way to go.
Campaigners can often be too idealistic, especially when it comes to helping others. Other people may easily take advantage of their kindness – Campaigners’ poetic justice and idealism do not always survive contact with reality. This can hurt the Campaigner immensely, also potentially leading to other issues such as nervousness or an inability to relax. It is very important for the Campaigner to recognize that the world we live in is not ideal and other people may be too preoccupied with other things to pay attention to the Campaigner’s ideas, no matter how kind and noble they might be
Finally, Campaigners tend to have some perfectionistic tendencies, which translate into unreasonable expectations of others, as well as an unrealistic view of reality itself. Ironically, a Campaigner often cares so much about a certain cause, that they may find it difficult to accept that neither people nor their ideas can be perfect. This is likely to affect Campaigners' personal and romantic relationships as well, as their partners may find it quite difficult to match the Campaigner’s idealized view of them. Again, people with this personality type should try to utilize their critical thinking skills as much as possible by forcing their emotions to pass a rationality check from time to time. Campaigners’ empathy and the ability to see something worthy of respect in everyone are truly amazing traits and they should be cherished – however, it is important to know where to stop. In all likelihood, you will not be able to change the entire world – remember that perfectionism is the enemy of good, and keep that idealism in check. Do not give so much that you forget to care for yourself. Perfectionism also leads to more stress, which is never a good thing, especially for someone who is sensitive – the frustration and disappointment can start building up inside, a ticking bomb that can cause health issues for the Campaigner and damage their relationships later on. You can only learn and progress if you make mistakes, so embrace them instead of trying to be perfect.
Campaigners tend to be creative, enthusiastic and highly artistic. People with this personality type can be tremendously productive, but they must be willing to address the weaknesses described in the previous section, especially the tendency to avoid commitments. Campaigners’ insight, combined with their creativity and passion, can yield very interesting results – for instance, they can become very inspiring and influential journalists or public speakers. Campaigners should also explore diverse platforms and fields that might not be so obvious, such as internet forums, volunteering or community service. A note of caution though – inspiration and creativity also tend to attract people seeking to manipulate and take advantage of Campaigners’ openhearted enthusiasm. Campaigners are usually able to sense other people’s motives relatively easily, but only if they have learnt to listen to their Feeling trait instead of simply obeying their Intuitive trait. People with this personality type try to avoid being judgmental, but there are times when this is inevitable – and Campaigners need to flex that mental muscle from time to time if they wish to grow and develop as individuals.
Those Campaigners who have taken time to develop their intuition will also be able to assess and judge various situations quickly and accurately. This trait allows them to get quite good at many different things and consequently Campaigners rarely have difficulty achieving what is generally seen as success. However, this is unlikely to make a Campaigner happy unless that success is accompanied by spirituality and authenticity. Even though indulging in consumerism is often the quickest way to short-term satisfaction, this would make the Campaigner feel empty in the long term – people with this personality type need to know that they have made a difference in the world. Campaigners should be aware of this and resist the urge to pursue other people’s dreams – a bigger house, a faster car or a shinier title will not make them happier. As a general note, most Campaigners should probably stay away from the business world, especially the upper tiers – they are at their best where moral or ethical decisions are involved, but these notions are rarely appreciated in a sector where the bottom line means everything.
Campaigners can be very determined and passionate if they truly care about something. However, they should make conscious efforts to keep their mind focused on one project instead of jumping from one topic to another. The Campaigner mind is not meant for routine things or following steps A, B, C, D... - it will jump from A to D, then back to C, then think of a better way to handle B and so on. It is important for the Campaigner to keep this tendency in check in order to guarantee a project’s success. As Thomas Edison once said, “Genius is one percent inspiration, ninety nine percent perspiration.” Campaigners need to make sure that their mind always stays on track, especially if that phase of the process is relatively dull – never lose the sight of the actual goal.
Campaigners like to explore everything – the secrets of human nature, principles and causes, the depths of their own mind – and more often than not they are able to find a way to improve things they do not like.
Most importantly, you need to be happy with yourself – do not try to meet other people’s expectations or work hard on developing traits that society says are valuable but that go against who you are. As you are probably well aware, Intuitives such as Campaigners are comparatively rare, so it is completely understandable that many of the things that the wider society seems to value – such as seeking materialistic rewards or following the well- travelled path of study-work-buy a house – may seem forced and unnatural to you. Society, especially in the Western world, is dominated by Observant types (particularly Sentinels), who usually get to set the rules determining which traits are considered strengths and which ones are seen as weaknesses. However, this does not mean that you need to change who you are in order to be successful – recognize your weak points, but do not try to mold your personality to suit someone else’s expectations.
Dating or being in a relationship with a Campaigner can be an eye-opening experience – people with this personality type are very imaginative, flexible and enthusiastic, always coming up with new plans and ideas. Furthermore, Campaigners are very devoted and reliable partners, willing to do everything to make sure that the relationship is strong. People with this personality type are romantic idealists who can spend an extraordinary amount of time daydreaming about the perfect relationship, where harmony and warmth are abundant. Looking for a dating partner or nurturing an existing relationship is always one of the key goals for a Campaigner and this pure passion is one of their most attractive traits.
Thanks to the Campaigners’ spontaneity, their dating and relationship partners can expect to be pleasantly surprised over and over again. That being said, the Campaigner’s mood and affection are subject to hot-cold swings – for instance, they may be very affectionate in the morning, and withdrawn in the evening.
Campaigners are incurable romantics, and their expression of feelings may often be highly idealistic or even poetic.
The Campaigner’s partner will appreciate and enjoy the warmth and excitement that this personality type brings into the relationship. Campaigners are mysterious, idealistic and deeply emotional – these traits not only tend to attract potential dating partners, but also keep the flame of their relationship burning for many years to come. People with the Campaigner personality type are willing and able to enliven their romantic relationships in unusual and exciting ways, often surprising even their long-term partners. If a Campaigner decides to commit to the relationship, their devotion will be unshakeable.
Campaigners also tend to harbor unrealistic expectations when it comes to friendships. This can potentially lead to stress and disappointment once the Campaigner realizes that their friends are not as flawless or dedicated as they would like them to be.
Campaigners should remember that they have a rare personality type and should not get frustrated if their friends do not share 100% of their principles or goals. Campaigner personalities seek friends that they can trust, and who are both willing and able to understand their passions and ideas. Not many people can cope with the depth and richness of the Campaigner’s imagination, and even fewer can support the Campaigner in the way that they need. Campaigners tend to be very loyal and supportive friends, and are sought out by many other personality types for their wisdom, but they need to learn how to meet potential new friends halfway.
Campaigners relish topics that involve humanity. They like their studies to have soul. Any time a subject or topic involves the human condition, in any form, the Campaigners are quite attentive students.
The courses that speak to them most are the humanities and social sciences, since they appeal to the world of ideas in which they prefer to live. Literature, language, history, political science – Campaigners enjoy any subject that allows them to play around with concepts, especially if they include an overtly human element. Empathizing with a character from a novel or a historical epoch feels like home and gets the most attention from Campaigners in high school.
(Science and technology, usually more concrete and lacking in as rich a sense of humanity, typically engages them less. They connect far more with something like Hamlet’s existential crisis than with building models of atoms. However, discuss the story of Marie Curie’s trailblazing efforts as a woman, and it may make even chemistry or physics a bit more interesting. Generally speaking though, they favor philosophy over physics when given the choice.)
It pains Campaigners to be somewhere they shouldn’t be, doing something they consider irrelevant. If there isn’t a sense of purpose or meaning in college, or they’re doing it to meet someone else’s expectations, it’s likely to just be a bad experience.
Nothing is as painful or distasteful to Campaigners as the sense that they are doing the wrong thing for the wrong reason.
people with this personality type are very insightful and creative – they tend to be excellent architects, musicians, artists, photographers and designers. The best Campaigner career paths revolve around these traits.
The Campaigners’ desire to do something meaningful can also be a very powerful driving force behind their professional development. While many other types feel satisfied if they have achieved a certain goal in their careers, often of a materialistic or egoistic nature – a certain salary band, an impressive title, number of subordinates and so forth. This is not good enough for Campaigners. Even if they try to convince themselves that this is what they are supposed to aim for, deep down they will always know that they can do better. This makes it difficult for Campaigners to get stuck in a rut – and that is great news for everyone. People with this personality type have the capacity to achieve amazing things and they need to put their idealism to work as opposed to being stuck in a role that does not suit them.
Overall, the Campaigner personality type is rare, complex and enigmatic – Campaigners seek careers that are more than just jobs. People with this personality type need to know that what they do strongly resonates with their internal values and core principles. As already mentioned, there are quite a few careers highly suitable for Campaigners – they simply need to find a worthy cause.
it is crucial that Campaigners dare to follow their instincts and choose paths they believe are right for them, as opposed to listening to other people and doing what they think is best for the Campaigner. Things that are suitable for 95%+ of the population may well make you unhappy simply because you are not like that 95%. You belong to a relatively rare personality type – embrace your dreams and follow your own path instead of trying to live up to someone else’s expectations. This is wise advice for anyone, but especially so for Campaigners – while people with different personality types may be motivated by money and how they are perceived by others, Campaigners need to focus on personal fulfilment and the knowledge that they are doing something good and worthwhile. Trust your gut, not advice from mass media or someone who does not really know what you truly care about.

Got through half of the book. I just didn't like it. I started reading it expecting some sort of a personal growth book. Instead it's just how you should work in a friendly relationship with Explorer, Sentinel etc. like how is this helpful? I don't know everyone's personality type... And then the same things goes for romantic relationships and then there is an entire section how your personality type should raise kids???? I stopped reading mid-through. I'm sorry but I just really don't see the potential.
