These are inbuilt abilities or virtues God, in His infinite wisdom has deposited in every human being.
These characteristics differentiate you from the rest, making you distinct.
It must also be noted, that one person can exhibit all the four categories, however, one of them would dominate or be profound.

NOTE THIS
None of these four temperamental traits is EVIL, you only have to know/identify yourself and manage it.
It’s expedient to know yourself in order to help you know others.
This shall enhance healthy relationships with every individual.
Do not forget, that Nature and Nurture have the tendencies of altering these traits.
Try and discover yours too. Life gets better when you know who you are living with and when you know those around you as well.
