What's Your Personality Type?

Four hundred years before the birth of Christ, Hippocrates created the theory of the four temperaments to explain our personality differences. You'll be amazed that even after thousands of years, these personality types are still relevant.

Can you find yourself, or your family and friends in the following four descriptions?

The Popular Sanguine Personality

Are you tons of fun to be around, curious by nature, and the life of the party? Are you entertaining, bubbly, talkative, and enthusiastic?

If so, you are likely a sanguine.

Sanguines' are charming, have a great sense of humor, and make friends easily. Their high level of energy and excitement motivates others. People are charmed by the outgoing Sanguines' appealing personality. Although the Sanguine is likely to start projects with much enthusiasm they are also likely to get bored and give up easily. They may also need some help in the organization department.

The Powerful Choleric Personality

Are you a born leader? Are you strong willed, opinionated, and don't like to take no for an answer?

If so, you are likely a choleric.

The choleric knows what they want and will go after it. They are motivated, dynamic, and they are likely to reach their goals. They are confident, and able to accomplish more in a shorter period of time than any of the other personality types. Usually not very emotional, the choleric might sometimes appear cold and uncaring. Some see the boldness of the choleric as bossiness or rudeness. A number of cholerics' tend to be workaholics. The choleric must remember to give others a chance to lead as well.

The Perfect Melancholy Personality

Are you neat, tidy, and organized? Do you tend to be on the serious side? Are you sensitive, loyal, and appreciate the beauty in the world? Are you shy and prefer spending time alone?

If so, you are likely a melancholy.

The Melancholy is quite the perfectionist. Highly sensitive, talented, and creative, they appreciate music, art, and could be musicians, poets, painters, or participate in other creative endeavors. The melancholy is faithful and dedicated, sometimes to the point of being self-sacrificing. They often suffer from low self esteem as a result of being judgmental about their own abilities. At times they can be quite negative. The melancholy needs to work on letting go of perfectionism so that they are free to share their gifts with the world.
