This book was very helpful in understanding and accepting myself. The author gives good information about 4 styles of moods that somewhat corresponds with the four humors (sanguine, choleric, melancholic and phlegmatic) of old. For each of the four types there is a checklist to help you determine how much you resemble that type. From there step-by-step advice is given for ways a person can accept one's basic style of relating and action that one can take in order to live more in harmony with others. However, he does not provide the motivation to do the steps - that must come from the reader. The most enlightening part of the entire book, for me, was that these 4 temperaments are part of a person's character. It is something we are born with, yet within the parameters of our temperament styles each of us can take steps to become more comfortable in life. This book can benefit everyone who reads it and can be especially useful for parents as they strive to understand and support their children. Supervisors will also find the information useful for creating a more harmonious atmosphere at work. Mastering Your Moods is one of those "must have" books for anyone seeking personal growth. It is a timeless resource for current and future relationships!
