    Principled

    • People with the number two as their personal principle are usually principled and disciplined. This means that they have strong morals and are likely to stick to their promises.

    Cooperative

    • Twos are usually cooperative, which means they work well with others. They also usually help others, even if it means they have to put the needs of others ahead of their own.

    Altruistic

    • People with the number 2 tend to be nice. They help others without needing anything in return.

    Team-Oriented

    Assertive (Reversed)
