Sanguine
The sanguine personality is essentially spontaneous and pleasure-seeking; sanguine people are friendly and charismatic. They tend to take pleasure in social gatherings, making brand-new friends and tend to be energetic. They are normally rather imaginative and typically fantasize. Nevertheless, some alone time is important for those of this personality. Sanguine can also indicate sensitive, compassionate and romantic. Sanguine personalities usually fight with following jobs all the method through, are chronically late, and tend to be absent-minded and often a little ironical.
Frequently, when they pursue a new hobby, they lose interest as quickly as it ceases to be engaging or enjoyable. They are really much people persons. They are talkative and not shy. Sanguines generally have a nearly outrageous nature, specific that what they are doing is right. They have no uncertainty.
Choleric
The choleric temperament is fundamentally ambitious and leader-like. They have a lot of aggression, energy, and/or passion, and try to instill it in others. They can dominate people of other temperaments, especially phlegmatic types.
Many great charismatic military and political figures were choleric. They like to be in charge of everything. However, cholerics also tend to be either highly disorganized or highly organized. They do not have in-between setups, only one extreme to another. As well as being leader-like and assertive, cholerics also fall into deep and sudden depression. Essentially, they are very much prone to mood swings.
Melancholic
The melancholic temperament is fundamentally introverted and thoughtful. Melancholic people often were perceived as very (or overly) pondering and considerate, getting rather worried when they could not be on time for events.
Melancholics can be highly creative in activities such as poetry and art – and can become preoccupied with the tragedy and cruelty in the world. Often they are perfectionists. They are self-reliant and independent; one negative part of being a melancholic is that they can get so involved in what they are doing they forget to think of others.
Phlegmatic
The phlegmatic temperament is fundamentally relaxed and quiet, ranging from warmly attentive to lazily sluggish. Phlegmatics tend to be content with themselves and are kind. They are accepting and affectionate. They may be receptive and shy and often prefer stability to uncertainty and change. They are consistent, relaxed, calm, rational, curious, and observant, qualities that make them good administrators. They can also be passive-aggressive.
