Your Personality Type? This may surprise you....

I’m sure over the years you’ve heard of the various systems that have been created to measure one’s personality type. From the simple Type A, B or C personality to the more complex Meyers-Brigg evaluations, we’ve been trying to figure out the how’s and why’s of our personalities since, well probably, the beginning of time.

Back in the day, our caveman ancestor “OGG-A” could not imagine why his brother “OGG-B” wasn’t as motivated to get up early the first day of dinosaur hunting season. Now of course we all realize that “OGG-B” was simply following his natural inclination to be a little more laid back, hence his “B” like personality.

It dawned on me recently that we need to introduce a new personality scale based on the incredible, and oh yes edible, egg. You know, instead of letting all of those professor types lead us into believing that they actually have figured our who we all are, I wanted to hit it from a slightly different, or maybe a very different angle. =)


So today I unveil the “Perceived Essel Egg Personality Profile,” soon to be recognized as the world renowned “PEEPP” scale. (If you already connected the dots and saw the correlation between eggs, baby chickens and the “peep” noise they make, you’re way too evolved to finish this article. Carry on with a more meaningful task, perhaps.)


See if you can locate your personality type in the “PEEPP” Scale:


Hard Boiled — You guessed it, a real stubborn and mostly pessimistic personality who rarely want to hear anyone else’s opinion. Their gruff exterior is equally matched with a tough and untouchable heart.

Scrambled — These people really have it tough. Nothing ever seems to go right, usually rushed and frantic in their day to day dealings with the world. Often view themselves as a “victim” due to harshness of the hard boiled’s attitude.

Over-easy — Nothing ever seems to bother this group as they move slowly and confidently through each day. Great at accepting both compliments and criticisms alike, truly the envy of all other personalities. (and hated by the hard boiled gang.)

Poached — Stubborn, yet with a soft spot for the scrambled gang. Tough exterior is a façade to a sweet and warm heart.

Spicy Omelet — Never a dull moment with this group, they love living life to the max! While sometimes initially confused with the scrambled gang, people quickly see how the spicy omelet in a matter of minutes can get their act together. If provoked, quick to anger, so beware.
So, which egg-type personality are you? How about your best friend or lover? Feel free to email me at david@davidessel.com if you’re interested in having me help you to deal with another egg-type that’s got you heated underneath your shell.

Peace, Love,
Rev. David Essel, M.S.www.davidessel.comAuthor, Radio & Television Host, Lifestyle Coach

Dauphie Piper: A Beautiful Soul

Adventurer. Spiritual. Caring. Athletic. Healing. Sensitive. Explorer. Dependable. Trustworthy. Friend. Son. Brother. Client.


The words above came to me in a split second when I stopped to write about Dauphie. I met Dauphie Piper through his sister, Michel, a number of years ago. Our first meeting was over the phone as he had decided he wanted to work with me as his life coach. From the very first conversation I knew he and I would work together perfectly. He was the type of client I truly admire— his zest for life and his ability to look deeply and honestly at his strengths as well as his challenges.


Dauphie attacked life. He loved life. He was a searcher, a person who knew that his quest here had to have great meaning. When we first spoke, he was an intern as an emergency room physician. In this capacity, he was frustrated that he often only saw his patients one time. His desire was to do follow up with all of his patients, as he truly cared about their well being, but in the emergency room setting this rarely happened, and I know that bothered his sensitive nature.


In my work with all clients there are writing exercises due within 24 hours after our session. The point of this work is to help every person I work with to go deeper into their own personal world to find the answers to the questions that are present during our work. Dauphie's work often came written an hour after our talks. His dedication to his path was evident in how seriously he wanted to be in the physical world, but also knew that his life had a great spiritual meaning as well.


One of our most trans formative times came after I had asked him to read a very deep and powerful book called The Power of Now. We had continuous and extremely intense discussions on how he could apply the difficult principle of “living in the moment, every moment of every day.” This psychological “immersion” process meant that one would be totally conscious of all that was going on inside, feelings on a moment to moment basis, as well as what was happening in surroundings in the “outside world.” Dauphie took this exercise very seriously and it led to some amazing opportunities, self discovery, the type of discovery that he immediately started sharing with those around him. He began to seriously question the loads of “red tape” in the world of medicine that he believed prevented physicians from offering the utmost in patient care.


On a personal level, this “living in the moment” became a powerful part of his daily runs while living in Chicago. He first started to notice the amount of homeless people he would pass on a regular basis. This led him to test his own ego — he began purposely making eye contact with them. His final exercise was to look into their eyes as he ran by them daily and to consciously “send them love”. He told me the most incredible experience would occur when in unison they would look back at him and smile. These experiences became commonplace for Dauphie.
I was thrilled to have him in my life, not only as a client but also as a friend. When we met in person at a Barnes & Noble bookstore in Sarasota, it truly was like we had known each other for years.His ready and infectious smile put people at ease. His desire to explore the seas on his father's boat, travel to Asia to discover Buddhist Temples, or trek to mountaintops in Bolivia, were all a part of his amazingly adventurous spirit.


The saddest phone call I have ever received came three weeks ago from Dauphie. With tears he told me of his recent medical diagnosis and that he may not be in this world much longer. He reached out to me with his incredible ability to share his deep emotion, telling me what I had meant to him, that he loved me for who I am and all that I am. Tears streamed down my face as I drove, not believing what I was hearing. I told him how much I loved him too, and how much I wanted to see him one more time. That one more time never came. Yet, as I write this, he is right here with me, overlooking my writing and making sure I don't leave anything important out (smile).


In memory of this amazing man, I now intend to live more like him. I intend, in Dauphie's honor, to be more adventurous, to explore more of what all of life has to offer. He touched me in a way that as I write this I have to say was unexpected. While he came into my life to learn about the process I use to help others, he left teaching me as well. And Dauphie, in your honor, I will carry forward in life with a new zest for living with a new sense of adventure. How can I ever thank you enough for that.
Love, your friend,

Rev. David www.davidessel.com

You are so much more than you may know...

As I sat listening to a third client in a row lament the fact that their life had not turned out the way that they had hoped, that they weren't as wonderful as they thought because of what was going on in their world, a constant thought was racing through my head, "You are so much more than you may know."

Isn't it true? We rarely see the full beauty that we are. We rarely hold on to that truth for very long if we ever do see it. If we could see that absolute divinity that we are, the magnificent human that we each are, and hold onto that truth when things are great, or when they seemingly slip, the world would be the most majestic place we could ever imagine.

For it takes that kind of individual self love to transform the world. Yes, YOU are the center of your Universe. YOU are that important, that beautiful, that immense, that unique, that awe inspiring! How do I know this to be true? God told me so. In my daily communion, I continue to receive His message of the uniqueness, the full out love that each of us are. That every one of us carry. That we have the hardest time seeing for ourselves.

The mystics have told us this for thousands of years. Jesus told us, as did Buddha. The Gnostic bible is filled with this information too. So, when will we see this beautiful fact? When we make up our minds to and not a moment sooner.

A client lost his life savings recently, and was afraid to date as he had equated his self esteem with how much money he had. When he realized that his true value always resided in his heart, he headed out to meet the woman of his dreams, and will not stop until love becomes his new life focus. He is seeing the absolute beauty that he is, and for the first time in 15 years, is exuding a confidence, a sincerity, that even his co workers are commenting on.

Another client who in the past 6 months gained 30 pounds, had become emotionally housebound, as her friends had always commented on how she was always the one in such fantastic physical shape. Recently, after spending 30 days examining her true self worth, which again resided in her heart, not her body, she adopted a fully exuberant attitude about life and is back in the world spreading her love and faith.

Most of us by pass who we truly are, the gifts we have been given that are unique to us. Until we look into the mirror and see that divine self, we will always sell ourselves short, just wishing we had the body, money, luck, job, partner or whatever of someone else.

Today is the day to awaken to your own individual beauty. Are you ready for the task? A simple yes, will open up a whole new world to you and everyone around you.

Slow down to see, that you are so much more than you may ever know.

Love, peace, David www.davidessel.com

Who are you really?...

If I could ask one question of the world, of all 7 billion people, it would be "Who are you really?"

Not what your current title is, or what schools you've attended. I'd rather know what moves you, who are you really.

If you had one day, to spend with anyone, who would it be?

If you had one meal to eat, what would it be?

If you had one prayer to say, what would it be?

If you had one place to visit, where would it be?

If you had one person to leap into love with, who would it be?

If you had one regret to let go of, what would it be?

If you had one place to make love in, that you never have, where would it be?

If you had one choice to live anywhere you could, where would it be?

If you could choose any pet in the world to have, what would it be?

If you could just choose one person to turn to when you are in despair, who would it be?

When life seems filled with challenge, where do you go to find solace, love?

Who is your higher power, God, or Savior?

What are the two most important gifts that you have, coming from the inside , that you have in your life, that makes you absolutely unique in this world?

What secret do you hold, about yourself, that you'd rather not share? What is it?

I would love to know these things, for if you were able to tell me, that would show me that you are indeed quite rare. You're the type of person I want on my team, in my life, right now.

For if you can answer each of these questions, you truly know who you are.

And that makes you someone that everyone needs in their life as well.

You see, there is not one trick question here at all.

There is not one question that you do not have an answer for.

You are the gold you seek, and once this is revealed to you, by you, your life will never be the same.

You'll see, that you are a magnificent child of God, of Universal light, who deserves all that this world can offer.

Most importantly one who deserves to love, and be loved, at the most magical level ever known to man.

Slow down, and discover the beauty of who you really are.

Love, peace, David www.davidessel.com

In Between Jobs? What to do.....

If you're currently in between jobs, how do you spend your time? How do you stay motivated to do what you need to do to find that new position?

A number of years ago my father Ed was in this very position. With 3 kids and a wife to support, the pressure at one point became too much and he went to his doctor to get some medication for anxiety.

A very wise man, the doctor prescribed the golf driving range every morning at 7.30am instead of the medication.

He reasoned with my father that if he did this, he would release stress, and when he returned home at 9am he'd be ready to attack the day with a renewed energy.

It worked. My dad recalled how he really started to focus on the task at hand, and within a very short period of time had secured a new position.

Think about how you can use this example in your life to keep your energy up and your motivation strong while you are briefly in between jobs. It works.

Slow down.

Love, peace, David Essel. www.talkdavid.com
