Win people with the theory of human temperaments


Success lies in human temperaments. No matter what you do, you have to sell your knowledge, skills, your particular qualities and/ or experience to grab success. Sometimes in business and profession, one needs to handle marketing activity with your own or through a salesman, so you need to be an expert in salesmanship.

The most important quality for an investor is temperament, not intellect.”
- Warren Buffett

Types of human temperaments

First, let's know about the types of human temperaments. Temperament theory found its roots in the ancient theory of humorism. Greek physician-developed it in medical theory after that Galen researched it and named these four temperaments. The nature of each one is different. Its behavior, habits, choices also differ. First, get recognized which type of personality you already have. With each type of temperament, different approaches have to be adopted to make perfect repo with friends, customers even with relatives too. The most crucial problem is of understanding between the couple after the marriage could also be improved if the couple understands each other's personality in advance.  If one understands the human temperaments it will be easy to deal with everyone. Learn this as early as possible. Even I say this should become a part of education in early college years in all universities.
