Why You Act the Way You Do

A really fun book about personality. It’s pretty interesting and you don’t have to take it seriously, but it did help me to understand myself some.

If you're on a journey to understand people, please get this book and learn how to impact people appropriately!

I got this book along with The Five Love Languages and it was the best thing I have ever done! It is definitely a book that you want in your collection, even if you aren't a Christian but can still keep an open mind to the Bible passages Lahaye uses. Discovering my temperaments at the young age of 21 was not only eye opening but helpful in all sorts of ares in my life. It helped with my friendships, relationships, choosing a major in college, finding a job that suited me and that I was good at, and also in being able to understand others. It is an excellent book to use for bible studies, temperament studies, youth groups, etc... A definite must have for a journey of self discovery as well as a good book to keep you in check and help you grow out of bad habits with the help of the Holy Spirit and discover your true potential.

For many years I questioned why I exhibited certain behavior that were unpleasant. A friend of mine who is a christian doctor recommended this book to me. Upon reading the first chapter I recognized I had found a book that had some answers. After a good evaluation by my fiance, family and myself it was easy to see that the book is spot on. I have been able to more critical analyze myself and make adjustments. It is valid tool for self discovery and improvement and I have since given it as gifts to a number of people including my parents who have been married for YEARS.

I am still reading this though but I would say so far I love it. Helps me to Understand my temperament and that of my partner. I am slowly becoming more tolerant as I take into account people’s underlying temperaments

I heard about this book from a friend. If you want to understand why your kids act the way they do, as well, this is AWESOME. Because of this book, I have come to EMBRACE many traits of my 12-year-old rebellious daughter. Who knew?! I thought a troubled childhood had caused much of how she is, but learning that she was born that way--that God made her that way--was EXACTLY what I needed to better my relationship with her. It has also done WONDERS to help HER understand how and who she is and why. She's not so different afterall--just different from her mother!...and that's OKAY. We both have had a lot of fun observing people we know and how best to communicate with them based on their temperments. I HIGHLY recommend this book!

This book involves no science, no intellectual or behavioral approaches, not even schemas or personality disorders are discussed. It's EXTREMELY religious, judgmental and holier than thou, amd really just feels like some self-important man who doesn't know anything at all about the field just espousing whatever he thinks is right without any rhyme, reason, causality or explanation. Not helpful, not insightful, would not recommend.

This is probably my favorite book. I've read it at least 3 times and each time was freshly enlightened. This book has literally changed my life, in the way I relate to people. I've repurchased it (for friends) so many times, I've lost count! I especially like how the author writes from a Christian perspective, yet in a way that is universal. Everyone can gain something from this book. You will enjoy this easy read; buy it!

I love this so much very light and way to carry
