To print a copy of an Free Enneagram ebook
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:

Sevens Want to Know: Why cannot everyone keep up with me? * Emotional Intelligence Matter More Than IQ
Emotional Intelligence: Why it can Matter More Than IQ by Daniel Goleman
Prasoon Kumar
Feelings play a large role in our lives, and we recognized the fact long ago but gave little importance to understanding it since we simply could not find out more on the subject. Even those research studies which were carefully designed to get to the root of the matter could not really explore the subject well.
In case, there are hurtful actions involved in the events being discussed, we often say emotions were running high (that's why the hurtful actions took place), whereas the real problem might be lack of emotions.

Brains Process Information in Two Ways
The human brain has been subjected to many researches, and the latest tells us we know any subject in two ways, emotionally and intellectually, and our psychological makeup is created as a result of both. It is almost akin to knowing something is right both with heart and head (you already know it, right?). For example, in emotionally charged situations, we can express our responses without any conscious effort on our part (in simpler words, without knowing).

Emotional Intelligence Helps Us Effectively Navigate Through Life
The author Daniel Goleman advises us to add emotions with intelligence. If people have emotional intelligence, they can effectively motivate, regulate moods, maintain their ability to think well and keep hoping. Even the children begin to show the signs of emotional intelligence very early in their lives. Socially skilled children enter into a group of other children in a manner so they are accepted there without sounding rude. The emotionally unskilled children barge into the group right away without caring for other's feelings who are ostracized instead of being welcomed into the group.
Relationship Skills Are a Major Factor
Carefully conducted research has revealed that only those people who have the skills to create and maintain healthy relationships can be good parents and work well with other people. To remain healthy, people need to control their chronic anger as well as anxiety. The author Daniel Goleman says these skills can be taught to the children though first parents and the teachers need to realize the importance of emotional intelligence.
We Can Train Children with the Right EQ
The book Emotional Intelligence provides us with detailed recommendations on how children can be taught to manage their emotions and rational thoughts. The intelligence tests designed earlier in a way so as to test the mental alertness of the person. The records show that most of the successful people have average scores on IQ tests.
Long Standing Problem
The question of emotional intelligence has plagued the people for years, and we are not sure that we have found the right answers even now. Therefore when Daniel Goleman tells us about the Emotional Intelligence being the prime factor on which our success depends, it means he is doing away with the traditional methods of testing intelligence such as IQ scores and mental alertness.
The author Prasoon Kumar works for www.uRead.com which is the leading online bookstore that offers all the current and all time great titles at never before prices. Daniel Goleman says persistence, zeal and self control decide success of failure. Get the book at great prices only at http://www.uread.com/book/emotional-intelligence-daniel-goleman/9780747528302
The Red Trangle in the above image points to the ASSERTIVE TEMPERAMENTS which move against their feelings. They are:
Temperament 3 – The members of this Temperament are aggressive against ANY feelings that may interfere with achievement or success. Feelings are put on hold while the task is accomplished. The problem is that they are rarely dealt with because there's always another task and another reason to not deal with them. Feelings simply get in the way and are unimportant to the goal. Image is preferred over feeling (in other words, they knows what feelings should look like and may even portray behavior that mimics appropriate feelings, but may not genuinely experience the feelings themselves). We call members of this Temperament - Achiever – Performers. 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 7 – The members of this Temperament are aggressive against NEGATIVE feelings. There's a constant effort to buoy life to the positive and pleasurable. An attitude of entitlement to the good things in life can sometimes be perceived. Reframing or putting a positive spin on life is a way of keeping any bad feelings from surfacing. Thinking is preferred over feeling. We call members of this Temperament - Visionary – Optimists. Temperament Seven examples are: Robin Williams, Steve Jobs, Tom Hanks, Anthony Quinn, and Terry Bradshaw. These people want to enjoy life and experience all its possibilities. They value joy and variety. They envision making the world a more delightful place to live.
Temperament 8 – The members of this Temperament are aggressive against exposing SOFT feelings. Feelings leave them with a sense of vulnerability. The soft underbelly is left exposed for people to take advantage of which goes against the desire to be strong. Feelings can aggressively be denied to the point of not even being noticed, in the self as well as in others. Doing is preferred over feeling. We call members of this Temperament - Challenger – Protectors. Temperament Eight examples are: Martin Luther King, Jr., FDR, Sean Connery, Donald Trump, and John Wayne. These people want to live life fully and freely. They are attracted to, appreciate, and effectively use power. They envision using their strength to influence others and bring about a more just world where power and resources are equitably distributed.

They value peace, harmony, and unity. They envision making the world a more harmonious, ecumenical, and comfortable place to live for everyone.

Why do we use numbers?
Sevens are the:. Visionary, Epicure, Entertainer, Optimist, Adventurer, Rationalizer, Optionist. We use numbers rather than these 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.
