Each person is individual, and he has special character traits, however, temperaments are divided into only 4 types. Naturally, there are no individuals corresponding only to any particular type, that is, there is no absolutely “pure” sanguine, choleric, melancholic or phlegmatic person. In each person, sometimes in the most bizarre way, different types are intertwined, but some one feature (in most, but not in all cases) necessarily prevails, and depending on this individual is called accordingly. But this does not mean at all that two, for example, choleric people will be identical. They may be completely different people, but they will have something in common. It even happens that a melancholic, a sanguine person is very similar in character to each other. What unites people of the same temperament?
Tell me what's in your blood and I'll tell you who you are
Melancholy - who are they? These are people whose blood is dominated by black bile, which makes them sad and fearful. Their element is water.
Phlegmatics -people whose blood is dominated by lymph. This makes a person slow and calm. Their element is earth.
Choleric people - yellow bile predominates in their blood, this gives “hot” blood, hysteria, rudeness. Their element is fire.
Sanguine people are cheerful and agile people, which, according to some sources, indicates the predominance of blood, and not other components in it. Their element is air.
Melancholic - who are they?
Melancholic is an impressionable, vulnerable and shy person. This is the type of people that some may perceive as losers. However, you should never hang such a stigma on a melancholic. He is capable of things that no one else can do. For the most part, melancholic people are very talented people, they have a huge creative potential. Melancholics - who are they: geniuses or timid losers? Their subtle sensitive nature is capable of creating works of art, literary opuses, and other masterpieces that are amazing in their inner content. Melancholics, for the most part, are very cultured and educated people, they have a rich inner world, since they usually compensate for the lack of communication with others by reading literature. And this makes them very interesting interlocutors and friends who, in principle, can know the answer to almost any question. But it is natural that there should be a balance in nature, and, in fact, having awarded this type with enormous opportunities, she partially neutralized them, giving melancholic inertia and insufficientthe amount of strength to achieve the goal, as well as the habit of giving up even with minor obstacles, unwillingness to act and break the way forward. So all the same, melancholic people - who are they: gentle weak creatures that require care and attention, or people who can leave a significant mark on history, such as Rene Descartes, Charles Darwin, Nikolai Gogol, Frederic Chopin, Pyotr Tchaikovsky?
Phlegmatic
Phlegmatic people can only be envied for something, namely their poise - they have character traits that allow them to remain calm in situations in which a choleric alarmist can die from frustration. To some, a phlegmatic person may seem like an insensitive "stale cracker", but this is not entirely true. First of all, because serious passions rage inside him, and people who get to know him better may be surprised by this fact. The phlegmatic just does not bring his emotions out, which characterizes him from the best side. It is pleasant and comfortable to be near him - with his emotional balance he is able to calm even the most nervous types. Due to the fact that the phlegmatic person can adequately and reasonably look at any situation from the outside, he can find the right solutions for various problems. The phlegmatic will treat everything with philosophical calmness. He is somewhat lazy, but he is forgiven for this. If you quarrel with him, then he himself is able to compromise and take the first step. Phlegmatic people are the most stable people who create a foundation, a reliable foundation.our life. Behind them you will always be like behind a stone wall.
Choleric
Choleric is a fast, nervous, unbalanced, in other cases even aggressive type. It would seem, well, what good is there in an evil and petty nature? But no, the choleric is able not only to match the image of a quarrelsome market trader, but also to show such talents that in everyday life have special advantages. What would other types do without choleric? None of them is able to go forward, making their way and achieve their goal, despite the obstacles. Cholerics are able to sweep everything out of their way. Where the sensitive melancholic will beware, the phlegmatic will think for a long time, the sanguine will panic, who will break through and take his own, no matter what? Only choleric. Melancholic, phlegmatic, sanguine - all of them cannot quickly and confidently make their way to the goal. The nervous energy of a choleric person is capable of working miracles and finding a way where, in principle, it was not laid before him. Naturally, it is not easy to communicate and live with a choleric person. He is nervous, jealous, quick-tempered, but with a loyal attitude towards him, he will help you overcome any obstacles and will be a great helper and friend.
Sanguine
They are considered superficial, quick to panic in critical situations and unable to adequately respond and solve complex problems. However, the sanguine person is a very active and energetic type, mostly kind. He is always ready to provide all possible assistance. He is an optimist and believes inthe best, loves communication and being the center of attention, trusting. A sanguine person can entertain and amuse the whole team. No one else is able to create real fun and celebration in any situation, and when everyone loses heart, only a sanguine person is able to raise the spirit and energize everyone around with positive energy. He is active, he has a light character, he is a wonderful and interesting friend who will never let you get bored alone and fill your life with bright colors and fun.
However, it is not so important which character traits are most appropriate for an individual, what positive traits of one type or another are inherent in him is much more important. The desire to improve your character, muffle your negative traits and enhance positive ones will help to create a beautiful and harmonious personality as a result.
