Andrea Profiles of People
Because of Covid and distance, these profiles are based on a deep memory dive — but can’t be tested in timely interactions for the purpose of this exercise. But I see the value of this process and it will inform my thinking moving forward.
I also found that my sense that I had zeroed in on the correct core traits was confirmed by being able to see the interaction of those traits in my experiences with people: for example, how loneliness led to insecurity, or social and disloyal could be connected.
Person 1
Curious
Compulsive
Lonely
Insecure
Person 2
Social (fun and climber)
Disciplined
Focused
Disloyal
Person 3
Connector
Learning Mindset
Sensitive
Intrusive

Patrick Malone Profiles People
What I learned is to look to people I know to discover characteristics. Also, to create characters with different 0pr conflicting characteristics.
CHARACTER 1.
– Talkative: never shuts up, talks over movies, TV show, sports.
– Self-absorbed: when someone tells a story, a joke or an event, he immediately turns the topic back to himself. His tales are always funnier, more interesting, or so he believes.
– Obsessive: He buys numerous newspapers each week and painstakingly clips articles. He saves these in cardboard boxes, has at least 100 boxes. He has another 1,000 newspapers piled up waiting to be clipped. He also saves every telephone message and every email he receives.
– Generous/Helpful: Always offers food and drinks when visited. Helps friends financially.
CHARCTER 2.
– Talkative: He talks over other people.
– Poor listener: When he asks a question, he often doesn’t let you finish answering, but answers it himself.
– Delusional: As a former musician, he talks about famous musicians such as Paul McCartney and Bob Seger, as if he knows them and will be performing with them.
– Generous; Loves to make meals for guests.
CHARACTER 3.
– Analytical: She is always inquiring, asking questions
– Adventurous: Rides a motorcycle, skydives.
– Negative opinion of humanity: Makes lots of negative comments about humans.
– Loves nature: Hikes, grows vegetable and flower gardens.

Ruthie Profiles People
What I learned: It’s intriguing to deep dive into the traits of someone you know, especially if you don’t care for them. This makes it challenging but necessary to think of a positive trait! (Again, due to Covid, this is from memory as opposed to IRL.)
Person 1.
Sneaky
Two-faced
Stubborn
Charming (superficially so)
When questioned on why they had not completed a task, they willfully suggested it was never going to happen. (Stubborn)
Person 2.
Argumentative
Self-centered
(Overly) Sensitive
Passionate
It was always very hard to get a word in edgewise, the conversation soon reverted to them.
Person 3
Entertaining
Dedicated
Natural leader
Social climber
Fun to be around but it’s always about appearances and what’s in it for them.
