Each of the nine single-digit numbers has a specific range of personality traits. Most traits are found in more than one number, although in varying degrees of influence - some stronger, others weaker. Each number carries both positive and negative aspects and displays those traits in a unique manner. 

For example, courage is found in the numbers 1, 2, 5, and 8. However, the way these numbers display courage differs considerably. The number 5 is the most courageous, but its bravery is impulsive and rebellious, the kind that stands up to a bully or the status quo regardless of the consequences. The courage of the number 1 is more focused; it is the daring leader, the first to cross a dangerous sea, climb a mountain, or fly to the moon. The number 2 displays a gentle and kind valor, as in the act of sacrificing oneself to save another. The courageous 8 is motivated by duty and authority; it confronts danger to protect the law or the land.

Traits such as courage, that on the surface would seem to be constant no matter the circumstances, can actually be subtly different. Take the example of courage vs. thrill seeking; both require bravery, but the latter will look for opportunities to take unnecessary chances. Thrill seeking reflects an addiction to adrenaline, whereas pure courage is the act of overcoming one's fear.
