How DiSC Types Act in Spring

, ,

Dominance (D) – The Springtime Taskmaster

Wakes up on the first warm day and decides to redesign the entire backyard before lunch. Competes with neighbors for the best lawn—even if the neighbors don’t know they’re competing. Turns spring cleaning into a high-intensity sport, assigning everyone tasks with militaristic precision.

Influence (I) – The Social Butterfly

Declares picnic season officially open, even if it’s still a little chilly. Buys a cute gardening set but never uses it—just takes selfies with it. Has four BBQ invites in one day and says yes to all of them. Is allergic to pollen but still insists on frolicking through a field of wildflowers.

Steadiness (S) – The Cozy Spring

Enjoys watching everyone else do yard work while sipping tea on the porch. Prefers planting one flower at a time instead of overhauling the garden in a day. Keeps the same spring traditions every year—same Easter brunch, same family picnic spot, and same flowers in the yard.

Conscientiousness (C) – The Springtime Perfectionist

Has researched the optimal soil conditions for each plant in their garden. Uses a spreadsheet to track pollen levels before going outside. Spends a day organizing the spring cleaning checklist, only to realize they’re exhausted before actually starting. “We can’t just plant flowers. We need to analyze soil pH, sunlight exposure, and long-term sustainability!”
