Research that has been done on deeply held, lifelong interests reveals that those interests are among the most stable features of human personality. “Interests” refer to underlying basic elements of human interest and the way humans rank one or more of these basic elements over other interests – not to a love of sports, music, etc.
Gaining insight into the pattern of our deeply embedded life interests allows us to better predict the activities, work environments, living circumstances, and types of people that we will find most fulfilling. These interests are among the most important patterns of meaning to consider when asking, “What are the enduring features of my personality that I should bear in mind when making major decisions”.
This exercise on Recognizing Patterns was adapted from the book “Getting Unstuck” by Timothy Butler.
