Manifesting Generators make up around 31% of the world's population. Your Type combines the qualities of a Generator and a Manifestor. The Generator within you is full of energy, which means that nothing stops you from creating and working. The Manifestor in you makes you someone who takes the initiative. Like a Generator, though, you need to feel that internal cue before bringing your ideas to fruition.
And you can swiftly transition from thought to action. Of course, this is when what you’re working on is genuinely important, even necessary, for you.
Pros of being a Manifesting generator
You come up with ideas and put them into action faster than any other Type. You can store a wealth of different thoughts in your head, are great at multitasking, and come up with the most efficient way to get this or that thing done. This is a tremendous asset both at work and outside of it.
Cons of being a Manifesting generator
Impatience is one of your biggest pitfalls. You’re always in a hurry to get it done—ASAP! As a result, you often neglect important details, and then have to go back and redo things. You experience aggravation because what you want is for the job to be done. However, there is wisdom in developing patience, and being attentive to each step along the way.
