What are the different Temperament Types?

Traditionally there have been four temperaments discovered:

• Melancholy - has an unquenchable thirst for knowledge, prone to genius, very creative, mind tends to work overtime, going over and over events of the past, needs alone time to regroup.

• Sanguine - fun loving, will leave in the middle of a chore or assignment if they find out there is something fun going on somewhere, never wants to grow up, stressed out if there are not places to go and people to see.

• Choleric - a drive to greatness, but will step on your toes to get there, needs lots of appreciation along the way.

• Phlegmatic - quite stubborn and set in his ways, uncomfortable with confrontation and seeks peace at all costs to avoid strife, feels he needs sleep to regroup but never gets enough, very annoying to the Choleric as this is the one temperament that cannot be coerced into doing something if they don't want to.

• Supine - one who loves to do things for people and enjoys people, but is very indirect and shy about letting this be known.
