Finding Your Fit

Hey! :)

Last Saturday, we had an awesome time at ZC! :)
Our guest speaker, Pastor Soo Seng Fei shared an interesting message on Finding Your Fit, as well as took us through the four personality types, DISC.

DISC is an acronym for:

Dominance
Influence
Steadiness
Conscientious

All of us are made up of all four personality types, but in different intensities.


Here are some of the characteristics of the different personalities.
