The Tongue


Living differently is one thing. Now the other thing for me to change about myself is my tongue. Which complains a lot. About anything.

Gah. And my tendency to rationalize everything. And also debate on it. Which is why I would make a good debater of which God perhaps don't want to encourage me by not having me join the debate team since high school.

Believe me, I have been working on it. It is not easy at all. First things off is to not care about a lot of things. Perhaps this is a good time the Phlegmatic side kicks in. Being nonchalant and laid back instead of the Choleric hard head which wants to give a kick at a lot of little things. And also to lay off the details-picking and perfectionism of the Melancholy.

BUT I WANT THE SPIRIT OF EXCELLENCE!

In work. Now to differentiate the times the different sides of the personalities emerge.

Work = melancholy+choleric
Play = sanguine+phlegmatic
People = balanced. But for things out of my control, PHLEGMATIC.

But on things that concerns me, choleric of course to draw the boundary, mostly in things that concerns my safety, my welfare and my heart.

Now to control ze tonguez.
