Alhamdulillah.. Subhanallah.. Allahuakhbar..
The whole week busy with me-time.. huhuhu.. hopefully tomorrow will be a good kick-start again.. Will be attending the workshop organized by
IPS and PGA UMP.. Preparing for some speech as the master of ceremony for this program.. huhuhu.. If possible, I want to excuse myself from it..
Don't know why I can't focus on my work, so I just went through my job application at
CAREER @ UMP.. Checking the progress.. but it is still pending.. however.. in one of the links, I found out the personality test.. so, I took it immediately (well.. I am the person who always love to take any personality test.. of course will not let this opportunity pass)..
Upon answering all questions, it turned out that this personality test is similar like I used to take it before.. the four temperament with scored obtained:
Perfect Melancholy : 15
Peaceful Phlegmatic : 13
Powerful Choleric : 8
Popular Sanguine : 5
These scored obtained were more or less similar to previous tests I had taken.. Again.. Perfect Melancholy is the highest score followed by Peaceful Phlegmatic.. What kind of personality associates with these types? I asked some help from Uncle Google.. So here is some sharing of what kind of person a Perfect Melancholy and Peaceful Phlegmatic is..
The Four Temperament page excellently explained who am I.. A Perfect Melancholy (PM) person plus A Peaceful Phlegmatic who is usually associated with these kind of personalities:
First and foremost: a Perfect Melancholic is of course a
perfectionist.. (T_T).. PM are
idealists who wish for things to be a certain way, and they get distressed when they are not. They hold themselves and others to unrealistically high standards, and get distressed when these standards are not met. This leads to them being
self-deprecating - because they do not meet their own standards - and
critical of others - because those others do not meet their standards.
PM wish to learn and to understand, to
know the details of every little thing, because to be ignorant is to stray from perfection. They are not content to just accept things the way that they are. They are
inquisitive and ask specific questions in order to come to a clearer understanding. This leads many of them to be
over-analytical, neurotic worriers. PM are very
stubborn, because they try very hard to stick to their own carefully considered views and standards of perfection, and are not easily shifted from this path. They do not go with the flow. They are
tenacious and cannot let things go, because 'good enough' is not good enough. They strive for perfection. They are very
pessimistic, and assume the worst due to these unrealistic standards.
They
think and plan before they act; they are not the types who will resort to rash, impulsive behaviour, and will
panic if they are unable to plan in advance. It's easier for them to reject and hate things than it is for them to love and embrace them. Their interests and tastes are picked carefully, and they give a lot of attention to each one, and hold them close to their hearts, rather than having many fleeting interests that change quickly and often.
PM
complain a lot, in a 'whinging' kind of way rather than a 'put down' or 'demanding' kind of way. They tend to
argue, because they cannot simply let things be if they seem wrong. They
argue using reason, evidence, logic, and explanations, delivered analytically or with pleading. They only argue to set wrongs right, rather than to assert dominance. The argument is about the issue, not about them. They respond poorly to compliments, often 'rebutting' them by saying that they're not so great after all. "Wow, that's a really nice painting you just made!" "I don't know, the eyes are probably too big..." (rather than "Thanks!").
They will
blame themselves for mistakes, because they are acutely aware of their own imperfection. They tend to prefer things to be
tidy, organised in some way or another. This doesn't necessarily mean 'neat' as such; often they have very idiosyncratic organisation methods. They are idealists, who imagine perfect fantasies and feel upset when things don't live up to these fantasies. They prefer to
tackle the heart of the matter, which can lead to them avoiding 'beating around the bush'.
PM are the
most introverted of the temperaments in that they crave time alone, and are most at ease in their own company. They can enjoy spending time with others, but this drains their energy, and they need alone time in order to recharge. Much of their introversion comes from their perfectionism.
They are picky about the sorts of people that they associate with; people who meet their standards and share their outlook. People that don't will make them uncomfortable; they do not wish to talk to 'anyone and everyone'. Their
self-deprecation also makes them think that they might not be very interesting anyway, that they aren't really worth spending time with, even if they know in the depths of their minds that they are very interesting indeed. Once they have
someone to talk to in a quiet and relaxed environment, they can talk a lot and will enjoy sharing thoughts and ideas. They are very wary of making friends. Unlike sanguines, it can take them a very long time for them to consider someone they're familiar with a 'friend', but once they've reached this point, they will likely stick with that person
loyally.
PM prefer having a
few close friends to many acquaintances. They can be seen as
selfish, because they prefer to be alone with their thoughts, to have their own things, rather than sharing time or possessions socially with others.
They are usually very possessive about the things that they own and are reluctant to let others borrow or use them, because they treat their own things well, care about everything deeply, and will worry that others will not look after them with the same level of care. They could be described as '
intense', rather than 'easy-going'.
Melancholics are very
sensitive-emotional.
They are moved deeply by beauty, and by distress. They are
very easily hurt, because of their perfectionistic tendencies. Often their moods are like delicate glass sculptures; built up slowly, deliberately, and carefully, but easily broken,
and hard to repair once shattered. They respond to things that they dislike with misery and with tears rather than with rage. They are very
slow to 'snap',
but will hold onto emotions for a very long time. They hold grudges, because people who have failed to meet their standards, who have hurt them, will not just suddenly meet those standards without changing drastically. (I am emotional, but towards family and very closed friends..)
They can become very '
moody',
and they can be difficult to interact with because they are so easily hurt. They are
not aggressive, and wish to flee from things that cause them distress. If they want to get back at another person, they are more likely to make them feel guilty than to insult them bluntly. They are '
thin-skinned'.
The melancholics in ancient age may have been the
analysts, the information gatherers. They scouted for potential danger, or for food, and reported back to the pack leader. The more accurate their findings were, the better; this led to a trend towards perfectionism, as the 'analysts' closer to perfection survived better than those that made sloppy mistakes. In current society, PM often tend towards
analytical roles such as scientists, analysts, programmers, logicians, and so on. In fantasy settings, they may be wizards or sages.
While for A Peaceful Phlegmatic (PP) are usually associated with these kind of personalities.. Meek,
submissive introverts who live to please others. PP
do not act as if they are better than others. They are
eager to please, and quick to give in to others rather than asserting their own desires as if they're the most important. They take the
path of least resistance whenever possible. They so desperately wish for peace, for everyone to get along, and to avoid conflict at all costs.
Conflict terrifies PP. They do not start it (except perhaps in extreme circumstances), or provoke it, and try to defuse it when it comes up. When forced into an argument, they get very upset and distressed, seeking escape rather than victory. If confronted, they are likely to admit that they are in the wrong in order to prevent hostilities. They don't believe that they know best.
They have no desire to be a 'winner'; they only wish for peace. They are
well-behaved; rebelling against established rules would feel deeply uncomfortable to them. They're the sort who'd say, worriedly, 'should we really be doing this?' or 'we might get in trouble!'. They really, really do not wish to be a bother to others, and
always put others first. This is due to a deep-rooted unease about asserting themselves rather than a lack of confidence, or a
conscious desire to be a 'nice person'.
They are
quick to apologise for any mistakes that they may have made, and will sacrifice their own happiness to ensure that others are happy. They are
empathetic, and acutely aware of the feelings of those that they are interacting with, as they do not wish to hurt these feelings. They have
tremendous difficulty saying no, and will go along with things that they dislike to make others happy.
They are extremely
trustworthy;
if they make a promise, it's very likely that they will keep it (in real life, maybe I am not a good-promise keeper.. huhuhu). PP
terrified of doing things wrong. They will blame themselves if mistakes are made, even if it was someone else's fault, just to make others feel better and more at ease. They try and word things in a way that is not offensive to others. The will be more supportive than critical.
PP are indecisive. They'll defer to others to make choices, and will feel upset and pressured if they have to make a decision themselves; this comes from their inability to see themselves in a 'leader' role. They are natural followers, and work best when they are told what to do. Their language is generally full of uncertain phrases such as 'I think', 'maybe', 'perhaps', 'or something'. Compare "maybe you could do X, or something?" to "do X" or "you should do X". (previously this maybe a big yes, but now I can say that I have improved a lot.. maybe related with the personality traits of the first born in the family..)
Rather than saying or doing the wrong thing, they'll say or do nothing at all.
Obstacles that get in the way of their steady path will cause them to halt and fumble around, not sure what to do. They're more likely to travel around than through it; their path is easily changed by others. (This also maybe not hundred percent correct.. I believe I am a risk-taker and I love to challenge myself.. I am also very stubborn (or better in better word - determine) to achieve what I want...)
same like PM.. PP are also
introverted, and enjoy time alone. However, they are
much 'nicer' and more friendly and social than the melancholic, as they're unburdened by 'perfectionism' and as such do not judge others. They
enjoy spending time with friends, and are very
loyal to these friends, sticking with them through thick and thin, even through abuse. This is because they put others first, and will not leave another even if they want to because the other person may not want them to leave.
They are
almost immune to anger. They have extremely long fuses, and will only snap after a long period of prolonged and persistent abuse. Even then, they're more likely to retreat within themselves and cry than to try to harm another. They like
calm and steady lives, free of surprises. They can be relatively confident in familiar situations - if not necessarily assertive - but panic when placed in new ones. They
do not seek thrills, and enjoy predictable, quiet, ritualistic lifestyles.
They are
very quiet, and do not share their own inner thoughts readily, as they fear judgement and don't wish to bother others by waffling on about themselves. They are however
excellent and attentive listeners, who will quietly and politely take in and absorb the conversations of their friends. They will always
pay attention, and will offer supportive feedback rather than criticism or advice. They'd never say things like 'bored now', as if it's the duty of others to entertain them. (but those who are very close to me will see I am on the opposite.. I open up myself more, thus, showing my negative attitude such as being ignorance, being too outspoken and so on..)
Since they
hate to offend or hurt others, they generally don't ever resort to aggressive insults or attacks. Belittling or hurting another makes them feel bad, not 'powerful and in control' or amused, so they'll worry about having done this accidentally. They could be described as '
nice girls' or, more
horribly, 'doormats' by those with different temperaments (hopefully I'm not)..
They
barely express emotion at all. While the sanguine might whoop and cheer and jump for joy at the slightest provocation, phlegmatics are unlikely to express more than a smile or a frown. Their emotions happen mainly internally. They
lack 'passion', as their emotions are mostly internal. They
often rely on others ordering them to do things to get motivation.
In the past, the PP might have been the
obedient followers who'd get much of the actual work done at the command of their superiors. They may not stand out, but without them, nothing would work. They are the cooks, the cleaners, the quiet office drones, the red-shirts, the white mages.
Comparing both temperament.. PM and PP are really
introverted person.. They are
reserved.. have "
slow reaction" in terms of getting angry and snapping.. both also have very
low self-esteem and are
pessimist.. but on the other hand, scoring both PM and PP shows a
balance emotional personality - since PM are more emotional in nature while PP are calm and peaceful..
