PMAI - Concepts Of Archetypes

Concepts of PMAI ARCHETYPE:

As per my understanding PMAI archetype are based on the theories of C.G Jung

To understand archetypes I want you to go through the definition given by C.G. JUNG-

In Jung's terms - 'Archetype' is defined as the first original model of which all other similar persons, objects, or concepts are merely derivative, copied, patterned, or emulated. These patterns derive from a universal collective unconscious which in metaphysics is called the Grids - Akashic Records - Sea of Consciousness - that which creates our reality in this context, archetypes are innate prototypes for ideas, which may subsequently become involved in the interpretation of observed phenomena.

For further knowledge I will recommend visiting: http://www.crystalinks.com/archetypes.html

PMAI module helps each individual to recognize their highest and lowest archetypes and make an assessment for themselves, its can be done at the value of $15. its my personal opinion one should surely go for the evaluation as its gives you the sense of direction about what you really are and you should be proud of that and something’s in life which you are falling back and what improvements can be made to enhance your lowest categories.
each category have its own characteristics.
I will help you readers to know how it works out By posting my personal PMAI SCORE .

CARE GIVER – 29
SAGE – 27
MAGICIAN – 27
LOVER – 27
SEEKER – 27
DESTROYER – 25
RULER – 23
ORPHAN – 23
JESTER – 22
CREATOR – 19
INNOCENT – 18
WARRIOR – 14

HIGHEST SCORE: CARE GIVER
LOWEST SCORE: WARRIOR

In my case it’s almost true and it puts me in a position where I can think about what I m good at and what things I need to improve in life, we can relate this by taking my work example or relationships with the boss. For example if my boss is a care giver too don’t you think that people with same understandings will tend to perform well?
It’s a famous saying no-one is perfect but steps can be taken to improve yourself for better.

It’s a simple example which can help you understand about your own self being and I recommend everyone to go for this assessment test for self improvement.

During my assessment of archetypes I can say that care giver personality was dominant and it came out to be dominant. And speaking about business this archetype doesn’t works alone as it’s the combination which makes it work your way being in a management position and having an characteristics of caregiver is very important as employee and customers can relate to your gentle and humble attitude and feel at ease to discuss their concerns. But at the same time following just the care giving attitude is not healthy as well so it has to be combined with other characteristics like warrior as sometimes in business world you have to face the challenges all the time.
In my opinion the best workplace suitable for this kind of candidate will be in some humanitarian work, art departments, natural history, tourism industry, education etc where he is able to see more of world etc. e.g.- Mother Teresa
The workplace which will be hard for this archetype being the care giver will be defense services, politics, newspapers and magazines, gambling joints etc.
Please note: all these examples are based on my personal assumption it can vary from individual to individual based on their combination of archetypes.
