Simon Penny Food for thought -" Basically, your personality consists of your
character, which includes traits acquired through your experiences, and your
temperament, which is traits arising from your biology. I think we have evolved
four primary types of biological temperament, each associated with a range of
traits".

5. Simon Penny I've long been a fan of Dr Zimbardos work and research on
human behavoural psychology. His new book about time certainly gives this
tangible intangible a new perspective and gives one the opportunity to take
charge of time in your life instead of being at its mercy. Enjoy.
RSA Animate - The Secret Powers of Time

Professor Philip Zimbardo conveys how our individual
perspectives of time affect our work, health and well-being.
Time influences who we are as a person, how we view
relationships and how we act in the world.
