Analysis
The theme we get from the group analysis is: do your duty in order to be able to enjoy yourself. They have the feeling that you are not allowed to enjoy yourself until you have done your duty. So they do their work and they work with pleasure. But they aren’t the sort of people who work 18 hours a day. They have to keep some space for enjoyment, for an evening out, for a trip to the cinema etc. Everything is fine as long as they can do their duty and keep some space for themselves at the same time. But the problems may start if their task becomes too much for them, or starts to take up too much of their time. Then they will get the feeling that there isn’t enough space for themselves, that life is slipping by.
A variation on this theme is the feeling that they have to enjoy life. This may be a sort of basic theme for them. A good life to them means a life in which they have fully enjoyed the good things on this earth. Although they do restrain themselves and do fulfil their duties, the basic thought is that enjoyment plays a major part in life.
Essence
The idea that they have to do their duty in order to be allowed to enjoy life.
Mind
They feel duty bound to work. They work hard and they like doing their job properly. But at the same time they want to be able to enjoy themselves too. After a hard day's work, they like to be able to relax at the beach having a nice dinner. This is how they like their romance as well. All this may have started at the stage of mother saying: 'finish your first course, then you’ll get your pudding'.
To them life is worth enjoying. You should enjoy yourself. Just as working is an essential part of living, so is enjoying yourself. They also like to let others share in their enjoyment, especially people who are hard workers,like themselves. They also have an aversion to the opposite: they don’t like people who always want more, without doing anything in return.
If their work becomes too much for them they start to get problems. This could happen, for instance, in a situation where they work too many hours. This would leave too little time for themselves, too little time to have fun.
They suffer from fear of narrow spaces.
