Let's Relax with Peaceful Phlegmatic

Here's the continuation of my "Who I am: My Personality Temperament" ... to read the intro article, click here.

This article tells the description, strengths and weaknesses of a Phlegmatic Person...still in verbatim ...in the words of Florence Littauer, author of Personality Plus....

=====

Oh, how the world needs Peaceful Phlegmatic!

The stability to stay straight on course.
The patience to put up with provokers.
The ability to listen, while others have their say.
The gift of meditation, uniting opposite forces.
The purpose of peace at almost any price.
The compassion ti comfort those hurting.
The determination to keep your head, while all around are losing theirs.
The will to live in such a way that even your enemies can't find anything bad to say about you.

Peaceful Phlegmatic tones down the wild schemes of Popular Sanguines. Peaceful Phlegmatic refuses to get too impressed with the brilliant decisions of Powerful Choleric. Peaceful Phlegmatic doesn't take too seriously the intricate plans of Perfect Melancholy.

Peaceful Phlegmatic is the great leveler of us all, showing us, "It doesn't really matter that much." And in the long run, it really doesn't!
