5 Types Of People

TD Jake's did an excellent job in defining three types of people. He classified them in the following categories:

1). A Confidant : your go to person. The One person that is there for you no matter what. The one person that truly wants the best for you thru your good and bad times. The one person that would never hurt or desert you.

2). A Constituent: a person that is for what you are for. They are only interested in your success that they want For themselves while not really caring about you. As long as you are striving toward the thing that they want also they will appear to be a confidant, but they aren't. A constituent's nature is one of envy, often revealed by when you tell them good news that you may have.. They are often silent. And inside they truly aren't happy for you. Never confuse a constituent with a confidant. Never mistake a constituent for a confidant.

3). A Comrade: a comrade is the enemy of your enemy. A comrade Will fight right beside you as long as you are having a common enemy. Once he has had the help from you in defeating that common enemy, they normally have no more use for you. For their allegiance with you only went as far as to aid in the defeat of his enemy which you two had in common.

You can build something with a comrade, just understand that They won't be there for you when that victory has been accomplished. Again ..don't make the mistake of confusing a comrade for a confidant.

I would like to further this list by two types that he didn't mention.. Based on what I have seen in my experiences.

4). A Saboteur: a saboteur is a person that has one mission and one mission only. That mission is to stop you, block you, circumvent all of your progress. In some cases even try to kill you to achieve their goal.

Saboteurs are assassins by way of stealth. They appear as positive people as a means of infiltration. Once inside of your inner circle they often display a kamikaze like trait that can even destroy themselves in their attempt to destroy you too.

Saboteurs appear as spouses winning your trust and love only to destroy your capacity for both. They appear as best friends until one day they slip up and reveal themselves thru a minor action that seems unrelated but if you know what to look For their intent is unmistakable.

Saboteurs are notorious for their disguises of all of the above types. When a saboteur doesn't want the best for you or has caused damage to your relationship or business affairs or have derailed you from a blessing or dream..

Never make the mistake of thinking that action was unintentional... For often it was not. If not removed from a situation that affects you, they will do more damage to you every time you forgive them or overlook a trespass from them.

Identify this type immediately by their relationship and historical interaction with you and then with extreme prejudice... Cut them off and get rid of them out of your life for they mean you no good at all they are destroyers sent to destroy you.

5). A Provocateur: a provocateur works as an assistant to the saboteur. Even though they may seem unrelated they collectively work together to achieve your demise. Like a spotter laser painting a target while a missile is being fired from an unknown location a provocateur causes a diversion that creates a cover for the saboteur. By way of distraction the provocateur diverts your attention however briefly to mask and conceal the actions and plans of the saboteur.

A provocateur is a bit easier to spot because often they need your attention to distract you in the first place. Their diversions maybe subtle or extreme, shocking but once identified their actions become predictable. Upon identifying a provocateur, pay attention for often a saboteur is in the midst nearby...

Sometimes the saboteur and provocateur are aided by a constituent. A multifaceted simultaneous act of betrayal. They do this because it makes identifying the perpetrator harder to identify.

In dealing with any of these types? Sunlight is the best disinfectant. Never suffer in silence behind the actions of a constituent or a comrade, a saboteur, or a provocateur. Spot them by calling them out so your comrades and confidants won't be deceived by them as well. Identifying them helps to make the enemy a clearer target to hit.

Like giving coordinates for a missile strike. Identifying these enemies makes their flanking easier to spot..as they try to attack us from many sides. Having situational awareness and knowing these types of enemies help insure a victory in dealing with evil. It helps to fortify our defenses making a solid fortress.
