A worldview includes your philosophy of life or conception of the world. It is your overarching context or view of “how things are.”
SKEPTICISM
The view that offers suspended judgment, systematic doubt, or criticism until facts are known and proven.
STANDARDS AND ETHICS
The view that there are standards or ethics that must be honored by all involved.
NARRATIVE: FACTS / JUDGEMENTS
In transaction, often sees results or consequences and offers judgements, or produces the facts of a transaction.
INTER-ACTIONAL
Views life as cause and effect; you get something done by acting to move that thing by force and determination.
Your Superpower
The value you bring to others or yourself, in exchanges or transactions.
CONFRONTATION & AUTHORITY
Often working on the culmination of facts and the establishing the standards which produce desired outcomes.
THE PAST & EVIDENCE
Inventories the evidence and resources.
SKEPTICAL, CRITICAL, CONFRONTATIONAL
Unwilling to act until evidence offers a contrary standard. Often able to confront those who disregard their standard.
CRITICAL MOODS
The glass is almost always half-empty and awaits evidence to the contrary.
Your Kryptonite
The cost you are to others or yourself, in exchanges or transactions.
ANALYSIS PARALYSIS
Skepticism is a good thing, it keeps us out of danger; but if you never leave the shore you can't discover new lands.
INDEPENDENT
Just because you can do it all yourself doesn't mean you should. Independence is a kind of poverty (this is why some great ideas never take off). Beware.
RESIGNATION / RIGHTEOUS
Judges can get resigned that things will never be any different - and righteously so.
SEE OTHERS AS STUPID
Judges tend to see others as stupid for not seeing the facts or standards they consider 'truth'.
