THE TRUE YOU 7B.


Phlegmatic Personality Traits

People with phlegmatic personality are unassuming, agreeable and intuitive and they possess the ability of “web thinking”, i.e. to see the relationship between many bits of data they collect.

Phlegmatic Skills

They have a wonderful skill to gather the facts, classify them into categories, and then see the relationship between seemingly contradicting elements. Basically, it is the ability to read between the lines. These men and women don’t do very well at memorizing separate unrelated facts, they grow bored and annoyed and to be excited by the process, they need to be able to generalize.
It’s all about the estrogen!

Phlegmatic personality traits are linked to estrogen, which is present in both men and women. However, phlegmatic people are predominantly females. The two hemispheres of the brain are connected by millions of nerve fibers, and estrogen builds more nerve connections between the remote areas within each hemisphere, in turn, this assists the ability of “seeing a bigger picture” or “web thinking”.

– These people are imaginative – they like to think abstractly about the things that only can be imagined. For example, they will try to read your body language and tell you what you were thinking from your half smile.

– The Phlegmatic person will want to know other people’s deepest feelings and strive to build intimate attachments with about everyone in their lives. They are interested in cooperation and interpersonal harmony, and this is why they preserve their family ties and friendships. When there is a conflict, they seek to agree, to satisfy the needs of everyone involved.

– These men and women are very empathetic and compassionate. They try to understand what the other person is thinking and feeling, then to respond accordingly, which allows them to connect with that person. Moreover, people with phlegmatic personality are agreeable.

– They could be described as cooperative, considerate, charitable, sympathetic, trusting and warm. They like to express their feelings, sometimes dramatizing their experience (another evidence of high estrogen activity).

– Phlegmatic men and women seek to contribute to society at large. They strive to fight cancer, donate to orphanages and help the poor and more than that, they also strive to a greater self-knowledge which they see as a must.

On the negative side, people with a phlegmatic personality can be indecisive, unable to focus on important details while ruminating on the bigger picture. Their talkativeness can be annoying and because they seek for a connection, they may appear needy, constantly demanding reassurance.

While trying to understand you, they also may assume that you see and feel the world the same way they do. They might take criticisms as an insult and pout for days, weeks and months and finally, they are very prone to depression.

YOUR FUTURE ( TIME )

If you work a full-time job, you see your coworkers, clients, and customers more than you see your family every week. In the end, jobs and people come and go, so do NOT take your family for granted. It’s important to cherish the time you have with your loved ones as much as possible. They should be a priority in your life. But creating and maintaining strong relationships, family or otherwise, is not always easy, which is why I've created this week's blog post... Start here if you want better relationships: do-this-if-you-want-better-relationships Here’s something else I want you to think about when it comes to making the best use of the time that you have. There are 4 rules of time:     Time is perishable - It cannot be saved, only spent. So the only thing you can do with it is spend it differently. Allocate some of that time to your loved ones.     Time is indispensable - Everything you decide to do, even looking out the window or sleeping in a few e...

Financial Success 3

MONEY: WHAT I WISH I KNEW 15 YEARS AGO I've wanted to do this for a while. Following the recent economic upheavals in our nation, many have desperately searched for ways to hammer. Some have been unfortunate victims of get-rich-quick schemes. I wish someone had told me fifteen years ago what I'm going to tell you now about money: 1. Money is seasonal. It comes and goes. This is not my first recession. I've worked for over fifteen years, so I've seen at least two major "recessions" in Nigeria; times when my clients tightened their belts, prices of basic goods & food skyrocketed and my standard of living plummeted. But the interesting thing is this - before the times of lack came, there was a period when money just seemed to flow. New jobs came, new ideas came and with them, a steady stream of income. It is what I did in those times of plenty (whether I invested or not) that determined how much I suffered during the bleak times. Pay attention to yo...
