I found a new blog site ... /www.reneeswope.blogspot.com/ .....she talks about, Florence Littauer's book Personality Plus...in this book four personalities are mentioned
1. Phlegmatic
2. Choleric
3. Sanguine
4. Melancholy
I have not only read this book and taken the personality test years ago, but I had the privilege in going to a church Woman's conference and Florence was the guest speaker in 1996. She is an excellent speaker, and the book is quite interesting. I have taken several personality test, through the years either in school or through work. I have read "Please Understand Me II" by David Keirsey about temperament, character and intelligence and "Now, Discover Your Strengths" by Marcus Buckingham and Donald Clifton, PhD.
These books are interesting, informative, thought provoking and motivating. They not only tell you about your personality, but about those around you. They teach you about other's personalities. It teaches about diversity of personality. Instead of trying to change ones personality, how to learn to appreciate ones personality. You gain by appreciating and lose by ignoring or condemning. You have learn about your own character traits, before you can see others distinct traits.
Wouldn't it be a boring world if everyone looked and acted the same...???

PS ~ Which personality were you? Don't feel pressured to share, I was just wondering.
I've never taken any test but I would bet I'm Melancholy.
Just some things I've been going through and working on. Thank you, Sandy.
Love and Prayers,
Eileen
