• The Perfect Melancholy: Analytical, talented, creative, idealistic, and perfectionistic, but also can be negative, moody, critical, and revengeful.
• The Peaceful Phlegmatic: Calm, dependable, practical, patient, quiet and witty, but on the down side, can be pessimistic, fearful, and unmotivated.
• The Powerful Choleric: Decisive, optimistic, confident, organized, and motivational but, on the down side, can be very cruel, domineering, unemotional, proud and inconsiderate.
• The Popular Sanguine: Cheerful, curious, sincere, fun, friendly, compassionate, warm and enthusiastic, but can also be undependable, restless, fearful and undisciplined. (We can sincerely start a project with a bang, but let it fizzle out and die.)

1. Listen with an empty cup---if your mental cup isn't empty you can't listen and learn.

2. Understand most conversation is about the other person---not you.

3. Set aside your opinion while listening to others---it allows you to "try on" what's being said.

4. Joining people in their conversation, not yours, allows you to open up your power of selflessness.

5. View others as who they could be—not who they have been.

6. Understand what the "home runs" in your life are.

7. Define who you are—not what you do.

8. Look at complaints as a commitment to change the circumstances.

9. A promise is your word---once you promise something, you can't take it back, unless that other person allows you to.

10. Don't issue commitments as intentions—most people understand commitments as promises and will hold you accountable.

Personal Presence Tips

1. Look people in the eyes when having a conversation with them.

2. How you walk into a room gives your audience their first impression of you.

3. Listen to your voice tone—is it full of energy and passion or full of monotones and void of excitement?

4. When telling an audience you are happy about something, make sure you've told your face that also!

5. Leaning forward into a conversation portrays your focus on that person and conversation.

6. Stride with purpose—don't purposefully stride.

7. Give a warm firm handshake, not a limp or hand breaking one.

8. Don't allow your hands to distract your audience from your message. Your hands may be telling another story than your spoken word.

9. Wear clothes you feel good in and receive energy from.

10. Smile!

We might think that Lincoln deserved an easy presidency after all that hardship — the reality is that his life of struggles uniquely prepared him for one of the most difficult presidencies in American history: the Civil War presidency. God could have put a fair-weather politician in office during the Civil War, but instead He chose a proven overcomer — and it's not hard to see why.

But you know what? We will have an advantage over all the people who because of their natural abilities can do a lot of things without even trying. Why? Because we will have learned to keep exerting ourselves, keep growing, keep trying — even when it's really hard.

And the gifted people? They will often get stuck at the level of their gifting. They do what comes easily, but for us everything is a workout — so we will be stronger.

Failure is never wasted if we learn to do the following:
1. learn from our mistakes, and
2. get back up and try again. JUST ONE MORE TIME...

We should pity those who never fail.

Failure is the pre requisite for success..
Show me a person who has Never failed and yet Achieved Amazing Success..:)

Cheers guys
Take failure in ur strides.
You are the best..

Seize the day
