Type 9s are known as the peacemakers and are friendly, kind and indecisive. Type 9s have the basic desire to be comfortable and at inner peace. They do not want to disturb anything around them in order to keep this feeling of peace. Type 9s also have a fear of separation and being at conflict with others. As they fear conflict they will often silence their wants and needs to go along with the opinions of others as a means to keep the peace.
Finn is relaxed, insecure and friendly. Despite being the star of the football team he is not overtly confident or outgoing. He has a habit of going with the flow and following the lead of others. An example of this is when he slushies Rachel based on the advice and consensus of the football team, rather than his own personal feelings.
Finn also puts a great emphasis on the perception of others and their opinions of him. He falls into the role of being the popular kid and the football star and he is very reluctant to do anything that would jeopardise this. This can be seen when he is asked to join the Glee club and he is very hesitant to do so- even outright refusing. It is only when he is given an ultimatum by Mr Schuester that he joins as a way of appeasing him. However, he starts to show growth when he accepts that Glee Club is something he is passionate about and enjoys despite what other people think.
Along with this Finn is shown to be very indecisive and unaware of his own feeling and desires. He finds it very challenging at the end of high school when his friends are planning and moving towards their dream jobs or educations. He also shows this through his uncertainty of wanting to be with Rachel.

At his best, Finn becomes more accepting, trusting and motivated to achieve his goals. He begins to see a calling as a Glee Teacher and decides to mentor the Glee club and gains much more direction and purpose with his life. At his worst, Finn becomes passive aggressive, anxious and cruel. His treatment of Kurt when they become stepbrothers and he called him a gay slur is an example of a time when he was inconsiderate, rude and mean.
In his relationship wth Rachel, Finn can often feel like he is not enough as she is such a large personality with very lofty goals. This is an area that they clash on as Finn believes it would be better to let Rachel go and pursue her dreams rather than continuing their relationship. While, this is difficult, Rachel also pushes Finn to become more confident, ambitious and certain of what he wants to do in his own life. They compliment each other well as she provides encouragement and drive towards Finn and he is more level-headed and supportive of her.
Finn has a wing 1 as he is concerned with his principles, is generally more reserved and wants to do the right thing. He shows that he is willing to stand up for people when he helps Kurt after he was thrown into the dumpster.
Finn’s Tritype- 9w1-6w7-2w1
Some quotes to describe Finn’s motivations:
“Don’t you get it, man? We’re all losers. Everyone in this school! Hell, everyone in this town. Out of all the kids who graduate, maybe half will go to college, and two will leave the state to do it! I’m not afraid to be called a loser because I can accept that’s what I am. But I am afraid of turning my back on something that actually made me happy for the first time in my sorry life.”
“Well, when I first joined, I thought you were kind of insane. I mean, you talk way more than you should and to be honest, I looked under the bed to see if you were hiding there. But…then I heard you sing and you touched something in me.”
“I know I’m a big athlete and it’s not manly or anything, but I’m kinda insecure about how I look.”
“ Wow. What am I going to do with my life? I don’t have my girl. I don’t have a job. I don’t have a place in this world.“
“ I…I didn’t have a father. Someone I could model myself after. Show me what it really means to be a man.”
“The truth is, I have no idea what I’m doing. I look around and everyone know’s where they’re headed or at least what they want. I’m lost. It’s like I can’t even remember who I am anymore.”
Marley: “You’re a natural leader, Finn. A teacher. You don’t need Mr. Shue’s approval to be that.”
Finn: “Yeah, but I do need a little thing called a teaching degree.”
Marley: “So, go get one”
