The Four Major Temperaments.
Good morning 😊, Hope our night was great.
The great Privilege that we have today is the fact that we woke up sound and healthy.

Today has already been given to us by God, our own is to maximize it, that we may be able to give back to him the expected results.
It is an opportunity we don't need to misuse as far as we are not in control of time and season.
"Who knows tomorrow".
In my last article, I wrote about temperament.
Yes Temperament is basically what makes us as a man, why we act the way we act, why we respond the way we do, why we think the way we think, even why we eat the way we eat 😂 is a blend of where we come from.
I mean the ship through which we are on earth blends together to make us, it is a natural phenomenon that nobody knows how it happens, but science believes it is transferred from our parents to us so far we carries their blood.
No man is born different from where he comes from.
In fact, some psychologist suggest that we get more genes from our grandparents than our parents.
I know of a family like that, where the parents were both tall and fat just that the mother is not that flesh like the father but not the slim type, they had five children,four daughters and one boy, the one that share them into equal half is the only short and slim among them, the remaining four looks like their mother and father. Two of them looks exactly like the father while the remaining two like the mother but this middle child look like their Grandmother that they called this little girl and the old woman twins because they are both same in height, their complexion,their body shape and some other things look alike.
Since temperament are received genetically from our parents and unpredictable, their are other factors attached to it like race and Nationality, environment, etc that makes us.
Hippocrates, no matter what the factor, over hundred of years ago divide people into four basic categories which are Sanguine, Choleric, Phlegmatic and Melancholy and each man may has more than one temperament which accounts for his personality and character but one single man can not have the four.
In the blend of this temperament, where a man can have like three, one becomes dominant while the other is little of less functioning like the Dominant one.
Before I analyze this four temperament I have learnt, I will suggest that we try and identify our own and identify even one or two of the people we relate with each day as it helps us to understand each other for maximum productivity.
All the four temperament has weaknesses and strengths, that is why most of the times what you expect from your friend is not what he gives, we all experience and fall victim of this at some point in our life.
Every man has weaknesses, so we don't expect it all to be pleasant to us from people at all times,the degree of our weakness just differs based on how individual has been able to work on himself and as a result of how mature we are, not about age but understanding and discipline.
At some point, we are fond of playing on other person weakness which is also a weakness we need to eliminate as well, it is not too good to mock a fellow human personality I had done this before I understand how it hurt.
As we have weakness so we also carry some strength that gives us enablement to do things that yield good result and pleases people around us.

Do not be down, carry yourself well, you are whom you are and not whom anybody is.
Develop a good self esteem it helps a lot.where u think you are not good is not telling you to condemn your God given self just a little shift can be productive.
Maintain whom you are.
Maximize your strength
Work on your weakness.
And be a better version of yourself🤩🥰.
Analyzing and how to maximize temperament coming up next......
Stay tuned...
I love you
Thanks for reading👊🥰
I still remain my humble self

We all have weakness so I believe we aren't expected to play with other people's weaknesses. Of a truth, we could take after our parents' kind of temperament. But everyone has the right to work on him or herself.
