Personality profile self examination

Recently I have read a book written by Florence Littauer. I came across many interesting points on the temperaments. She has included many aspects on which one can determine the various personality aspects.

There are 4 personality temperaments every individual falls under.

• Popular sanguine
• Perfect melancholy
• Powerful choleric
• Peaceful phlegmatic

To know which category you fall under, first you should do self check. I am presenting here the list of strengths.

List of strengths

Tick only one word in the row of 4 words that appeals the most. If you are not sure of what applies to you, then ask your close relative or associate what they had felt in those traits.

1)      __Adventurous  __Adaptable   __Animated   __Analytical

2)      __bouncy  __bold  __behaved  __balanced

3)      __considerate  __controlled  __competitive  __convincing

4)      __Cheerful  __consistent  __cultured  __confident
