Personal truth for an Enneagram 1:

Why value honesty? Honor? Sincerity? Fairness? Humility? Why value the things that hold you back from taking what you want out of life? Why even indulge in the doomed attempt to live up to an impossible paradigm, a standard which sneers at the inevitable failings of your mortal efforts and so parsimoniously dismisses all appeals to cosmic justice by saying, "virtue must be its own reward"?

Because some things hold value even in the absence of happiness or contentment.

Because if you spend a lot of time alone, you must absolutely be able to live with yourself.
