The Four Tendencies
Gretchen Rubin’s framework turns on two questions: do you meet <b>outer</b> expectations (what others ask of you), and do you meet <b>inner</b> ones (what you ask of yourself)? The four answers are the tendencies. It’s narrow by design — it describes how you respond to expectations, not who you are — which is exactly why it’s useful: it explains why the advice that works for your friend bounces straight off you. <b>The framework is Rubin’s; these descriptions are our own.</b>
