Transform Your Life With Steve and Pete

Appreciating The Diligence of Deliberatives

May 13, 2024 Steve Chua and Pete Cafarchio

Transformation Tip: “There's a time for daring and there's a time for caution, and a wise man understands which is called for.” - Robin Williams


People exceptionally talented in the Deliberative theme are best described by the serious care they take in making decisions or choices. They anticipate obstacles. 

  • People with strong Deliberative talents are private. They are careful and vigilant to protect and prevent harm.
  • Beneath the surface of decisions, they think ahead and see the possibility of risks. 


Intrinsic needs:

  • The opportunity to weigh the implications and assess risk. 
  • Time to think and not rushed to make a decision
  • To be asked, “What could go wrong that we’re not anticipating?”

Potential blindspots:

  • Because you take time to think carefully before making a decision, people might perceive you as forgetful, slow, or afraid to act. 
  • Paralysis by analysis 
  • Your cautious and serious outlook on life might give the impression that you are a distant, private, and unapproachable person.

Transformation Application: If you are someone with the Deliberative strength, consider softening the language before sharing your insights. If you do not have this strength, tell a deliberative that you appreciate them.
