{"product_id":"2940015589863","title":"Effective Communication Strategies In The 21st Century","description":"The history of the four personality types, a.k.a. the four temperaments starts with Hippocrates 24 hundred years ago. He described the four personalities by naming them black bile, yellow bile, phlegm and blood.\u003cbr\u003eSo what do these fluids have to do with personality types? Hippocrates distinguished these fluids as representing a person’s health. Black bile = Melancholy, Yellow bile = Choleric, Phlegm = Phlegmatic and Blood = Sanguine. Melancholy, Choleric, Phlegmatic and Sanguine are the four Personality types of this day and age. Melancholy means that you're very analytic. Choleric means that you want always to be in charge. Phlegmatic means that you are a nurturer. Sanguine means you just want to have fun. This book will go into greater details about the four personality types.\u003cbr\u003eEach personality has it’s own strengths and failings. Each one of us is a combination of all the four personalities, but we all have a dominant personality type and a less dominant personality type.\u003cbr\u003eEffective Communication Strategies In The 21st Century\u003cbr\u003eDiscover how to communicate like a pro and get what you want from anyone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1:\u003cbr\u003eThe Melancholy Personality Type\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSynopsis\u003cbr\u003eMelancholy – also known as an Emerald, Green, Conscientious.\u003cbr\u003eThe Strength of this personality is: Thinker, Inventor, Planner, Analyzer, Accurate, Organized, Thoughtful, Detailed, Artistic, Philosophical, Perfectionist, Economical, Idealistic, Purposeful.\u003cbr\u003eThe Weaknesses of this personality is: Introverted, Easily Depressed, Over Cautious, Analysis Paralysis, Layed Back, Skeptical, Pessimistic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMelancholy\u003cbr\u003eThe Melancholy Personality Type\u003cbr\u003ePersonality Strengths of the Melancholy\u003cbr\u003e Deep and attentive\u003cbr\u003e Analytical\u003cbr\u003e Serious and purposeful\u003cbr\u003e Genius prone\u003cbr\u003e Gifted and creative\u003cbr\u003e Artistic or musical\u003cbr\u003e Appreciative of beauty\u003cbr\u003e Sensitive to other people\u003cbr\u003e Self-sacrificing\u003cbr\u003e Conscientious\u003cbr\u003e Idealistic\u003cbr\u003e As a parent, sets high standards and wants everything done right.\u003cbr\u003e As a homemaker, keeps everything in order.\u003cbr\u003e As an employee, schedule oriented and hard working.\u003cbr\u003e A list maker and keeper.\u003cbr\u003eThe Melancholy As A Parent\u003cbr\u003e Sets elevated standards\u003cbr\u003e Wants everything done correctly\u003cbr\u003e Keeps home in good order\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Picks up after children\u003cbr\u003e Sacrifices own will for others\u003cbr\u003e Encourages scholarship and talent\u003cbr\u003eThe Melancholy At Work\u003cbr\u003e Schedule oriented\u003cbr\u003e Perfectionist, high standards\u003cbr\u003e Detail conscious\u003cbr\u003e Persistent and thorough\u003cbr\u003e Orderly and organized\u003cbr\u003e Neat and tidy\u003cbr\u003e Economical\u003cbr\u003e Sees the problems\u003cbr\u003e Finds creative solutions\u003cbr\u003e Needs to finish what he starts\u003cbr\u003e Likes charts, graphs, figures, lists\u003cbr\u003eThe Melancholy As a Friend\u003cbr\u003e Makes friends carefully\u003cbr\u003e Content to stay in background\u003cbr\u003e Avoids causing attention\u003cbr\u003e Faithful and devoted\u003cbr\u003e Will listen to complaints\u003cbr\u003e Can solve other's problems\u003cbr\u003e Deep concern for others\u003cbr\u003e Moved to tears with compassion\u003cbr\u003e Seeks ideal mate\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePersonality Weaknesses of the Meloncholy\u003cbr\u003e Easily offended\u003cbr\u003e Can get too caught up in details\u003cbr\u003e Doesn't do well with change.\u003cbr\u003e Struggles with insecurity\u003cbr\u003e Tends towards depression\u003cbr\u003e(I'll keep the \"weakness\" list short as the Melancholy may tend to linger over the negatives.)\u003cbr\u003eOf all the personality types, the Melancholy likely struggles the most with a low self image as they've set such high standards for themselves and other people.\u003cbr\u003eThey're the most organized individuals I know.
