Your Career and your temperament
Hello everyone it's @techstyle how do you feel about some temperament in most lifestyle we found on our life and different environmental factors.

Certain inherent qualities make humạn beings
different from one another in the way they look at things and react to issues. Children ofthe same parents,even though they were nourished in the same womb reared by the same hands and in the same environment
do not behave exactly alike, While one readily flares up violently when insulted, the other may silently and smilingly absorb shocks of insults. These inherited traits which contribute majorly to human behaviour
and character are referred to as psychologists.
MY teacher once told us a story in class of a family of six in his mental store which has temperaments by never ceased to catch the imagination of students of psychology and psychiatry in this subject of human temperaments.
It is a family I Iike to associate with, a family that ever occupies a pleasant space in my memory.
Dr Sunday Onyema married a fair complexioned
woman, Ngozi Onyema, who bore for him four gifted children John Onyema, Okey Onyema, Uche Onyema and Mercy Onyema.
John and Okey are males while Uche and Mercy are females. All of them are diligently pursuing their academics in different institutions of learning.

John is the emotional type - his feelings tell him what to do. On one occasion he was returning from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka after his first semester examinations and met an accident site where ten passengers in a "Hiace" were roasted to death. From that day he vowed never to join "Hiace" bus for any trip.
He studies medicine and does well in his examinations. Yet, he has made several futile attempts to leave medicine for pharmacy. His friends made him
believe that he would grow old after spending 7 years in the department of medicine. Only the kindly insistence of his well-informed father restrained him from a life-long error. His love to be around others and exchange ideas held him captive to peer pressure.
His father knew quite well that the talents of John adequately equips him for excellence as a medical doctor. John knows how to convince a dying fellow to decide to live. His cheerful mood and burning Compassion are needed more in no other place than in the hospital ward to attend to the sick and dying people.
Though he readily explodes when offended, his temper is volatile. He lacks the capacity to harbour grudges he has poor memory for past failures and offences.
However, his outburst of laughter or ridicule could shock you to the marrow if you dare make a mistake in his presence. One problem of John which the father usually complains about is his proneness to go to
extremes in all he does; he is not suficiently disciplined It was only when John became a born again' Christian on the campus that the father heaved a sigh of relief.
Okey, the second boy, is equally intelligent
and very resourceful. He differs from John in being self-disciplined and strong-willed. He does not shift like drifting waves but is firm and immovable. When Okey decides to do a thing, come hell or high water,he will not abandon his plan. He knows how to manipulate people for his own benefit. Tears of the downcast do not move him to pity. Begging irritates him and he regards beggars as lazy people who want to extort money from others. If he moves to pursue his targets, he is always too impatient to wait and cross-examine his projects His zeal for accomplishment blinds his eyes from the problems which may underlie whatever he steps out to do.Hence, he is often the victim of unforeseen handicaps. When Okey is made the head of any group, he knows the right words to use to stir his followers into activity. Like a bulldozer he ably crushes whatever attertpts to hinder his projects. Being insensitive to human sufferings, people under him usually complain of neglect. If you mistakenly offend him he mercilessly places a label of disgust on you. He will not only burst out if you annoy him, but also he ensures you are kept sad. Okey's father loves him for his active mind which overflows with visions and which hardly passes up any gainful opportunity. Tasks do not frighten Okey and he does not spend much time to decide what to do under pressure. No wonder he excels
in Agricultural Economics in the Department of Agricultural Technology in the Federal University of Technology Owerri in Imo State of Nigeria. Okey's temperament improved considerably few years after he submitted his life to Jesus Christ. Presently, he is centre of attention in the Family.
Uche is quiet and creative. She is always invited to every important matter in the family which requires tact and wisdom. Being critical in nature, she speedily analyses ideas to uncover unforeseen problems. Whenever the father desires higher quality perfect works in the family Uche will come to his mind. She willingly keeps to instructions and guidelines.
Moreover, she could endure sufferings and difficult times which creep into whatever task she is asked to do Her liking for all kinds of decorative plants favour the beauty of her home. she is often seen transplanting
and tending flowers whenever she spends her holiday in the father's yard.That makes Uche the pet of her mother who likes beautiful surroundings At the completion of her course of study in Federal Polytechnic Oko Anambra State of Nigeria, she came out with flying colours in mass communication and soon, gained employment in a, newspaper house.
Before long, the company began to reap the fruits of her creativity and excellence. Though a well-paid employee of the newspaper house, mariage eluded Uche. She changes suitors like garments; she finds it dificult to keep to any marriage proposal. She will
either tell you that man does not dress well or casually Sings her usual slogan of displeasure: "The man couldn' t measure up." She readily finds faults with men who wish to marry her. Her temperament prevents her from giving in to married life.Her
revengeful spirit and unforgiving spirit have not stopped to taint her beauty and intelligence. Quite often she is found crouched in one corner of the yard to brood over her unforgiven grievances. Her father
occasionally calls her "Lake Chad" in annoyance due to her ugly nature of receiving offences and scarcely letting them go.
In a recent christian crusade in her
hometown- Orlu - she was one of those who
who came out for altar call. Her parents have continued to pray for her weaknesses to be divinely strengthened.
Like still water that runs deep, Mercy is very calm, quiet and witty. She is little truant and notorious for shying away from duties and involvement.
However, her love for decency and orderliness puts her personality on the map.Nobody would enter her paradise of a room without first pulling off all footwears. She feels disgusted when her rug is stained with mud. Much of her time is spent in arranging all her belonging in their right places. Her liking for neatness and tidiness wins for her the admiration
of observant neighbours, Another excellent quality which onlookers enjoy in Mercy is her peace-making attributes; she deliberately avoids actions and words which could make her be at loggerheads with other people.
Her room-mates in the boarding house in Uli Girls Secondary School speak well of her. She does well in whatever duties she accepts to do. At first she may pretend incompetence, but when she starts to handle the matter, she comes out with nice results.
Her friends praise her for being faithful and dependable.
Regrettably, a taint of stubbornness mars her good records. Though not noisy, she can silently and smilingly not follow given instructions. Her grand mother calls her a silent rebel." Her parents, Dr. Sunday Onyema and wife Ngozi Onyeama, continually submit her name for prayers according to their religion every here and there.
The hard-hearted Ness of Mercy has not permitted her to fully imbibe the
gospel. She prefers to remain a nominal christian,answering Christian name without the Christian nature.
After this story I was plight of Uche, who breaks the heart of suitors and Mercy, who turned her back on the gospel truth.
Our teacher explained that the four fundamental temperament determine how humans beings act and react to issues. He also explains that human strengths and weaknesses are fashioned out by their temperaments.
