This month, we have looked at how each DISC Style uniquely views and uses Time. For the blogposts on the D-Style, I-Style and S-Style, just click here.
You might see these distinctions clearly at this time of year, as different DISC Styles give Time to preparing their taxes.
If we can understand this Time approach about ourselves and those around us, it can give us tremendously helpful insights and practical uses as well as beneficial understanding.
For a quick review, the High C-Style is:
- Conscientious
- Likes procedures
- Focuses on tasks and details
- Often doesn’t mind working alone
- Precise
- Systematic
- Has a slower “motor” – walks slower, thinks and talks slower
So for a C-Style’s approach to Time:
- They have a long-term perspective
- They want to make sure they do things correctly
- They often need to find the balance between doing things “well” and having things “perfect”
- If they aim for perfection, it will take a lot more time and is often unattainable in reality
- They need to realize, and accept, that doing something “very well” is often enough
