The study of the Nine Temperaments is called the Enneagram and is described in the free ebook listed above. The Enneagram types (Temperaments) are not made up of lists of character traits, but are founded in a person's core values. Each Temperament represents what that person considers something very important to their life such as power, security, harmony, knowledge, fulfillment, i.e.
Your Temperament enables you to make a valuable contributions to your life; but it also causes you to neglect other values, creating a psychological ‘blind spot” for you.
This is why, if you:
“KEEP DOING WHAT YOU BEEN DOING, YOU WILL CONTINUE TO GET WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN GETTING.”

Temperament Type Four
Fours have a deep and wide range of emotions and trust their subjective experience to make their life-decisions. They want to be gifted, intuitive, original and unique. They want to be passionate, true to their feelings and uniquely authentic. They see themselves as sensitive, expressive and spiritual. They would like others to see they as idealistic, emotionally deep and compassionate. Their idealized image is that they are accomplished and special.
Fours are about authenticity. Motivated by the need to understand and to be understood, they desire experiences that are rich with feeling and meaning. They may find it easier to deal with painful emotions than to deal with the tedium of daily routine. They have the temperament of an artist and long to freely express themselves. They feel their emotions deeply and are not afraid to go emotionally where others fear to tread. Painfully self-conscious, they are often overly focused on how different they are from others. A true humanitarian, they have a natural passion for protest. At times intense and contrary, they are not afraid to think for themselves and voice their point of view.
Fours often focus on past experiences. This can lead they to deeper insights or to downward spirals of melancholy and/or painful unresolved feelings. Craving ideal circumstances or love, they often ruminate on what is missing and perceived to be important. Their tendency towards self-absorption is both an asset and liability. It can lead they to deep personal insights that can benefit everyone while feeding their self-deprecating sense of humor; but it can also make they appear to be self centered and disinterested in others.
Fours bring forth their many talents into the world and express them in a way that is extraordinary and original. Attuned to feelings, they have an uncommon sensitivity when it comes to dealing with suffering. They are not afraid to hear about someone else’s troubles, and they can be a great friend to anyone in emotional pain.

The Power of Nine is your Key to Happiness and Joy.
There are nine Temperaments. Fifty percent (50%) of your happiness is determined by your Temperament.
Understanding your Temperament Type allows you to work with it and increase your own happiness. The ways individual people inherently view the world/themselves and process information are not the same but do tend to group in different clumps.
Pick the person about that you admire, like and think you are like and click on that number below and listen to the Video.
One way to view this distribution is as nine basic Temperaments Types. They all need different experiences to be really happy.
What do they really want?
Temperament One examples are: Hillary Clinton, Tom Brokaw, Martha Stewart, Al Gore, and Tony Randall. These people want to be good. They have high ideals and value and are attracted to situations where those ideals are met. They want to realize all their potential and help others actualize theirs. They envision making the world a better place to live.
Temperament Two examples are: Bill Cosby, Alan Alda, Nancy Reagan, Dolly Parton, and Pat Boone. These people want to know they are loving. They want to nurture others and foster relationships. They value and are attracted to love. They envision making the world a more loving place to live.
Temperament Three examples are: Oprah Winfrey, Tom Cruise, Tiger Woods, Lance Armstrong, and Bill Clinton. These people are attracted to and value productivity, industry, and competence. They envision making the world more productive, organized, efficient, and smooth running. They see the universe as chaos and want to really make it a cosmos, a harmonious and orderly system.

Temperament Four examples are: Michael Jackson, Johnny Depp, Nicolas Cage, Neil Diamond, and Angelina Jolie. These people want to be unique individuals with lots of originality. They enjoy putting their personal touch on everything in which they are involved. They also value beauty and want to make the world a more beautiful place to live.
Temperament Five examples are: Bill Gates, Albert Einstein, Howard Hughes, George Lucas, and Karl Marx. These people long for wisdom, understanding, knowledge, truth. They want to make the world a more enlightened place by discovering what is real and true and making it more intelligible to others.
Temperament Six examples are: Helen Palmer, Michael Moore, Tom Hanks, Rush Limbaugh, Richard Nixon, and Mel Gibson. These people want to make the world a safer, more secure, more reliable, more trustworthy place to live and they will question anyone’s authority in their effort to do so. They value loyalty in themselves and others and stand by their commitments.

Why do we use numbers?
Names such as: Fours are the: Individualist, Artist, Over-Analyzer, Mystic, Tastemaker or Romantic are commonly used to decribed the Temperaments Types. We use numbers instead of any names.
We use numbers to designate each of the Temperament Types because numbers are value neutral. They imply the whole range of attitudes and behaviors of each Temperament without specifying anything either positive or negative.
The numerical ranking of the Types is not significant. A larger number is no better than a smaller number.
No Temperament Type is inherently better or worse than any other. While all the Temperament Types have unique assets and liabilities, some Types are often more desirable than others in our society.
You may not be happy with your particular Type. You may feel that your Type is “limited" in some way. As you learn more about all the Types, you will see that just as each has unique capacities, each has different “limits.”
People do not change from one basic Temperament Type to another. Some Types are more valued in our society than others; it is because of the qualities that society rewards, not because of any superior value of those Types.
The descriptions of the Temperament Types apply equally to males and females, since no Type is inherently masculine or feminine. Not everything in the description of your basic Type will apply to you all the time because you fluctuate constantly.
