Each person is individual, and special character traits are inherent in him , however, temperaments are divided into only 4 types. Naturally, there are no individuals corresponding only to any particular type, that is, there is absolutely no “pure” sanguine, choleric, melancholic or phlegmatic person. In each person, sometimes in the most bizarre way, different types are intertwined, but some one trait (in most, but not all cases) necessarily prevails, and depending on this individual is called accordingly. But this does not mean at all that two, for example, choleric will be identical. They may be completely different people, but they will have something in common. It even happens that a melancholic 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.
Phlegmatic people are people in whose blood lymph predominates. This makes a person slow and calm. Their element is earth.
Choleric - yellow bile predominates in their blood, this gives "hot" blood, hysteria, rudeness. Their element is fire.
Sanguine people are funny and lively people, which, according to some sources, indicates the predominance of blood, and not other components in it. Their element is air.
Melancholy - 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 mark on a melancholic person. He is capable of such things that are not subject to anyone else. Most of the melancholy people are very talented people, they have a huge creative potential. Melancholy - who are: geniuses or timid losers? Their delicate sensitive nature is capable of creating works of art that are amazing in their internal content, literary opuses, and other masterpieces. Most of the melancholy people are very cultured and educated, they have a rich inner world, as 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 must be a balance in nature, and, in essence, having awarded this type with enormous opportunities, it partially neutralized them, giving the melancholy people inertness and insufficient amount of strength to achieve the goal, as well as the habit of dropping their hands even with minor obstacles, unwillingness to act and punch the road ahead. So after all, melancholy - who are they: gentle, weak creatures that require care and attention, or people who can leave a significant mark in history, such as Rene Descartes, Charles Darwin, Nikolai Gogol, Frederic Chopin, Peter Tchaikovsky?
Phlegmatic
Phlegmatic people can only be envied in something, namely their poise - they possess character traits that allow them to remain calm in situations in which a panicky choleric can die from an upset. To some, a phlegmatic may seem like an insensitive "callous 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 at this fact. Phlegmatic just does not take out his emotions, which characterizes him from the best side. It is pleasant and comfortable to be near him - he is able to calm even the most nervous types with his emotional poise. Due to the fact that the phlegmatic can adequately and reasonably look from the side at any situation, he can find the right solutions for various problems. The phlegmatic will react to everything with philosophical calm. He is somewhat lazy, but this is forgiven him. 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 the foundation, a reliable foundation of our life. Behind them you will always be like a stone wall.
Choleric
Choleric is a fast, nervous, unbalanced, in other cases even aggressive type. It would seem, well, what good is in the evil and petty nature? But no, the choleric is able not only to correspond to the image of a squabble market trading, but also to show such talents that have special advantages in everyday life. What would other types do without choleric? None of them are able to go forward, punching their way and achieve their own, despite obstacles. Choleric people are able to wipe everything out of their way. Where the sensitive melancholic is careful, the phlegmatic thinks for a long time, the sanguine will panic, who will break through and take his own, no matter what? Only choleric. Melancholic, phlegmatic, sanguine - they all can not quickly and confidently make their way to the goal. The nervous energy of a choleric is able to work miracles and find a way where, in principle, it was not laid before him. Naturally, it is not easy to communicate and live with choleric. He is nervous, jealous, quick-tempered, but with a loyal attitude to him, he will help you overcome any obstacles and will be a great helper and friend.
Sanguine
They are considered superficial, in critical situations quickly panicky and unable to adequately respond and solve complex problems. However, the sanguine is a very active and energetic type, mostly kind. He is always ready to provide all possible assistance. He is optimistic and believes in the best, loves communication and is in the center of attention, trusting. Sanguine can entertain and amuse the whole team. No one is able to create real fun and celebration in any situation, and when everyone is discouraged, only a sanguine person is able to raise the spirit and energize the positive of everyone around. 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 individual, much more significant is what positive traits of one type or another are inherent to him. The desire to improve your character, muffle your negative traits and strengthen the positive will help create a beautiful and harmonious personality as a result.
