Lenin type (VLFE) description

Lenin representative is an active and proactive person. Self-organization for the sake of achieving goals and daily self-discipline are not a problem for them – on the contrary, it brings them pleasure and a sense of tone. Lenin appears from the outside as a self-confident and decisive person who does not like to put things off for a long time. His assertiveness and ambition can attract and impress people, but also push them away, especially at close range. It’s not easy to catch up with such a person, but being in their company does not threaten a state of pleasant relaxation.

VLFE is a rational person. They are confident in their conclusions, and it is very difficult to persuade them otherwise. However, Lenin is always ready to explain and argue for their point of view, engage in a discussion or even a heated argument. They are interested in learning new information, especially if it can be viewed from different angles – studying different perspectives and drawing their own conclusions.

At the same time, representatives of this type are not entirely sure of themselves when it comes to self-expression in the material world. They doubt whether they understand their needs correctly, evaluate their appearance correctly, and often suffer from complexes in this area. To compensate for their discomfort, VLFE may behave aggressively and insistently – violating someone else’s personal space, exhausting themselves with diets and sports, cleaning their apartment to a shine, reproaching other people if they do not maintain the necessary order, according to their opinion. There are anecdotal cases when Lenin comes to visit and, being unable to ignore the disorder and dirt, begins to clean someone else’s home.

Sentimentality is not characteristic of this type. They are able to maintain composure in the most difficult circumstances and not give in to emotions. Lenin shows their love and friendship not in soulful conversations and confessions, but in actions. Loved ones can count on their patronage and support in difficult situations. In return, they will have to reconcile themselves to their stubbornness and uncompromising nature.

Thus, VLFE is an energetic and persistent person. They strive for self-expression in the material world, but complexes restrict them and force them to behave unnaturally and too assertively. Lenin’s advantages also include persuasiveness in discussions and the ability to not lose their composure in critical situations.
