They are excellent salesmen and often end up in a leadership position. A healthy Three integrates toward the positive qualities of type Six where they are secure and highly charismatic.At the average level, type Three can crave attention to the point that they become superficial. They may be so image conscious that they neglect the deeper aspects of achievement and then have a hard time creating solid and genuine success in their lives.Under stress when an average Three starts to disintegrate, they move toward the qualities of an average Nine and become listless and despondent. They can move from being the life of the party to being sullen and isolated.Famous Type Threes: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Brooke Shields, Britney Spears, Katie Couric , Regis Philbin, Tom Cruise, Joe Montana, Christopher Reeves, Tony Blair
