MELANCHOLIC VS CHOLERIC(PERFECTION VS POWERHOUSE)



At the tender age of 6, Maria was not just the apple of her mother's eyes, she was the pride of the Mason's family. Maria Mason was nicknamed "alchemist" because of her ability to turn a gloomy day bright. That's not all, her ability to show empathy raised her above her peers and her brother Andrew.
Andrew was the direct opposite of Maria, he was a bully, a "do as I say kind of guy". In the absence of his parents, Andrew is entrusted with the care of the house because of his unique ability to keep everyone in check.

MELANCHOLIC: They are also called perfectionist. They set standards for everyone and everything and end up being distressed when things don't go their way. Melancholics are also detail oriented, and pride themselves in creating effective systems and following each rule. Just like Maria, melancholics are also self sacrificing, compassionate, and sensitive towards others.

STRENGHTS: Melancholics are classy organizers, they spend time crossing every T and dotting every I. In addition to their organizational skills, they also have strong analytical skills and intuition.

WEAKNESSES: They are hard to please which is as a result of their high standards. Melancholics are easily broken by imperfections. Failures could make them sad, depressed or moody.

Careers perfect for melancholics:
Research, art, science, accounting,administration, and social work.


CHOLERIC: Andrew always surfaced as bossy and sometimes a bully, but he could always be trusted with taking charge of the house. He was always decribed as a born leader.
Cholerics are characterized as quick-thinkers, effective influencers, competitive, independent, easily annoyed, and prideful. They are also strong competitors who love to prove themselves. They also love to show strength in all situations even when they might be scared.

STRENGTHS: They are born leaders, charismatic and exude confidence. Cholerics are strong willed, decisive and goal oriented.

WEAKNESSES: Cholerics are also regarded as the most ambitious of all the temperaments, but most times appear as bossy, quick tempered, impatient and unsypathetic. They have little tolerance for mistakes, loves to manipulate and dominate others.

Careers perfect for cholerics: Business, law, technology, security, management, engineering and statistics.

NB: According to the ancients, your dominant temperament is something that you are born with. However, you can balance your temperaments by doing things like changing your environment or intentionally changing some habits.
