It is said that “No man is an island” We all have to practice some level of social interaction, unless we live the life of a hermit. Some of us choose to surround ourselves with many people in surface relationships while others prefer the more intimate interactions with only select friends and family. The choleric tends to be selective extroverts. As natural born leaders, they are able to gather a loyal following. They are usually well liked and use their ability to naturally interact with others as a screening device. They usually surround themselves with people that are complimentary and uplifting. The problem sometimes arises when people no longer suit their needs or disappoint them. When others fail to live up to their expectations, they become disillusioned and begin to distance themselves from those individuals. This is a weakness of the choleric temperament, but the good thing is that they can acknowledge it after gaining insight into this part of they are. Through the life coaching process, the choleric can recognize when they are acting in this way by recognizing and identifying their motives. There is nothing better than a redeemed choleric. They are already the “power temperament” of the five! As they overcome their shortcomings and accept people as who they are, their leadership abilities rise to new heights and they soar. A well-coached choleric is unstoppable in the business world, and gains the respect of those they encounter. Once they come to terms with their motivations and begin to act and react accordingly, they are able to develop deeper and more meaningful relationships based on trust and mutual admiration.
