Combining Your Driver & Your Comfort Zone (summary)

Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to You. Psalms 143:8 If you have been following these blogs over the last couple weeks, you now know there are nine combinations of drivers and comfort zones. A driving force and a comfort zone are linked within you. They do not exist independently. Today we will summarize the nine combinations. Power - People: The person driven by power but with a comfort zone of people is going to be very concerned about how to marshal the masses. Such a person may very well gravitate toward politics. Power – Ideas: The person driven by power but with an affinity for ideas is going to want to make sure that the ideas are widely circulated and that they have maximum impact on the culture or group. Such a person may find an outlet in publishing(?), consulting/coaching/counseling, or the academic world. Power – Things: The person who is driven by power but has a heart for things is going to seek to use machinery in the exercise of power. Such a person may be drawn to the military, or to the use of heavy machinery, or to the use of computers or broadcast technology to wield power. Image – People: The image driven person with a heart for people is going to be very gifted in organizing large events for maximum circumstance. A royal wedding or a state funeral or a state dinner will be their desired challenge. Image – Ideas: The image driven person with an affinity for ideas may be a fashion designer of an innovator of new packaging for an established product. Image – Things: The image driven person with a comfort zone for things is likely to be an excellent landscape architect or window dresser. Contribution – People: The contribution driven person with a heart for people is likely to be drawn to group activities and efforts, perhaps working on medical teams rather than in solo clinical settings, or perhaps teaching groups of people (children) or organizing the masses into demonstrations and rallies. Contribution – Ideas: The contribution driven person that has a comfort zone of ideas is going to write the editorials that incite the masses to take on an important social concern. Contribution – Things: The contribution person with an affinity for things is going to man the soup kitchen or volunteer to build the Habitat for Humanity house. In the corporate world, that person is likely to be an administrative assistant; in the church world that person is likely to be a trustee or the church secretary. These nine combinations are randomly distributed among family members and organizational members. Each can be a significant force for good. Which are you? Your driver/comfort zone defines who you are and how you interact with your world around you. What is your comfort zone and how is it affecting your life?
