About this title

Synopsis

What is temperament? Why would I want to do a temperament study? Isn't temperament the same as personality and character? What's the difference between a person's personality or character and a person's temperament? Aren't they all the same thing? First, let me explain it this way. The personality and/or character of a person is the summation of their four temperament traits. Consequently, your temperament is what makes up your personality and character. A person's temperament is the summation of hundreds of peculiarities both good and bad, or, we could say, strengths and weaknesses. Our temperaments consist of four individual parts or traits causing us to be the peculiar person each of us is today.What do you mean by temperament peculiarities? Temperament peculiarities are the hundreds of tiny bits and pieces causing you to be the person you are mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. As a result, all these peculiarities put together form your total temperament. With further investigation, we find everyone's temperament has four areas or traits. One of these four areas/traits dominates and directs your life causing you to primarily act and respond to life, people, God, and everything the way you do. Consequently, the three remaining traits of your temperament follow your dominant trait as all four parts influence your actions as well, but in a lesser way than your dominate temperament trait.Below is a graphic attempting to show how this works. At the base, we have hundreds of peculiarities created into us. We were born with these peculiarities. At birth these peculiarities were pure. Over time, many peculiarities become defiled and challenges in our lives. For example, these peculiarities determine how we express anger, how forgiving we are, how detailed we are, our lust, how much we desire to be around people, how goal oriented we are, etc. These peculiarities filter out into four different parts or traits. These four traits combined make up our individual total temperament. Our total temperament then becomes our personality or character - heart, soul, mind, and strength - which determine how we think, talk, act, react, etc.
