4 personality types taught by Angels
Every person’s road to a success is different because every person has different personality, nature, ability, and sensibility. Therefore; although the law of success could be universalized, it is necessary to consider the law of success accordingly to different personality types. However, many authors of “how to succeed” books write about law of success basing only on their personality types.
If a person has same personality type as author of “how to succeed” book, he or she may like and agree with the author’s approach to success. But a person with different personality type will find author’s methods incompatible.
For example, there are people who follow the motto “go with the flow” and succeed, like a kite being flown high in the air by the flow of wind. There also are people who follow the same motto but fail to succeed, like a little boat being pushed away downstream by the flow of river.
A short cut and key points to success are different among personality types. Let’s take a look at the 4 different personality types observed from Angels and different approaches to success according to each of the type.
Angel’s existance
When people hear the word “angel”, they think of it as imaginary creature. However, according to the Bible, angels are real and they exist close to us although we cannot see them with our eyes.
Angels were created by God, even before He created human being, and they have appointed task to “serve”. They also have duty to serve people.
Angels are not almighty like God, but are always with God to serve and are immortal like human soul.
Normally, angels cannot be seen with our eyes. But when they have special duty from God, they can appear in...

... book of Old Testament, tells a story of Adam and Eve’s sin and banishment from Garden of Eden. Upon Adam and Eve’s banishment, God placed Cherub at the east gate of Garden of Eden to bar their way back to the Garden.
Later, by the influence of Greek and Roman Mythology, Cherub somehow turns into a cupid, a baby with wings on his back. This cupid form of angel is the image of Cherub that many are familiar with today.
Such an image is not described in the Bible; however, four Cherubs that Ezekiel encountered had unique features.
Each Cherub had four faces.
Face of a lion, Face of an ox, face of a man, and face of an eagle.
These four faces of the angel have influence on image of creature from Greek and Egyptian mythology, Sphinx.
Sphinx is widely known that it has face of “a man”, body of “a lion”, wing of “an eagle” and tail of “an ox”.
The Bible contains many stories of people having an encounter with angels. An encounter alludes to an unexpected meeting. The word “angel” is a transliteration from the Hebrew word “mal’ak” in the Old Testament (Strong’s H4397) and the Greek word “angelos” in the New Testament (Strong’s G32). Both words mean “messenger” and describes one who executes the plan and will of the person whom they serve.
The Egyptian Palette of Narmer includes four different sections, it also includes many different figures, some human like and others are different combinations of various animals.
The Assyrian Winged Protective Deity is a low relief sculpture, so it does not stand out as much against the stone it was carved out off, but the viewer can easily distinguish the outline of the figure portrayed. One foot of the figure is stepping forward, which could symbolize a continuation with life even after death to protect the king. The stance of this figure greatly resembles Egyptian reliefs, since they would often have their statues have one foot forward. They did this because it symbolized eternity through the afterlife, which the ka of the person needed. The ka ...
The definition of success varies around the world, but according to Malcolm Gladwell its achievement can be broken down into a few components. Although Gladwell never truly establishes credibility in his book Outliers, he still backs up his proposed theories with reputable studies and sources which intrigue the audience to keep reading.The purpose of Outliers was to enlighten people about the different elements of success while also informing them of real life situations where seemingly less than likely people beat the odds and became the powerful figures that they are today. The intended audience is anyone who is looking to become successful or who is perhaps interested in the idea of success itself and wishes to learn more about it. Understandably, a secondary audience could be high school students who are about to venture out into the world on their own because with this book they will hopefully start paying attention to different factors of their lives and seizing opportunities that they may have otherwise passed up. Malcolm Gladwell talks about the 10,000 Hour Rule and also how I.Q. does not amount to much without creativity. He also speaks of how chance opportunity comes into play and that the distant background of a person still reflects how they handle situations in their present day life. Gladwell’s Outliers successfully informs the reader about the different components that add up to success with probable theories and credible studies to make for an interesting and motivational read.
My philosophy of success, is me growing into the person I want to become and being comfortable with the choices I decide to make in life. Success is not something I can achieve overnight, it’s something I must plan for then proceed to working hard for it as well. Without hard work, there isn’t anything successful about the job I want to get done or the job I wish to get done. Doing anything without hard work and dedication, and expecting the best outcome is not success; it’s mediocrity. Being mediocre/ will only allow me or anyone else to have a ‘Victim’s Mindset.’
...s world within the text of “A Very Old man with Enormous Wings.” What it means for people to care, explore, learn, promote, survive, and be curious about the fantastical world around them. These themes focusing on human nature become a whole lot more significant when you hold them up next to the angel. The humans did not care quite enough for the angel which can be clearly seen when noticing how they took advantage of him by exploiting him for the opportunity that arouse due to their desire for wealth. The family used him to satisfy their curiosity while also treating him like a common house pet. All of these factors are a testament to the many short comings of the human race even when they are graced with something that only a short period of time ago they could not have even imagined and that would have continued to have exists apart from their interference.
St. Thomas Aquinas believed that angels were pure spirit, having no matter or mass, and taking up no space; but Thomas believed angels could assume bodies at will. The purpose of angels is the same as mankind: to love and serve the Lord. However, being that angels are not material beings, and possibly from a different dimension, they can serve the Lord in many different ways. Angels have far greater will and intellect than we have.
Angel is portrayed as a strange and confused character from the beginning, being raised by a single mother. She is always shown to be frustrated about how he is living his life, mainly because he is not seeing his priest for life guidance. Angel’s Mother is forcefully trying to change her son’s ways without really trying to figure out what his problem is. Angel is clearly afraid to admit his sexuality to his mother. When Angel agrees to go back to the church his mom is quick to emphasize the prayer to Angel and you can see the uncomforting look on his face. Angel’s issues and confusion begins with his unloving mother that clearly does not love hers son.
They are luminous and charming and can have a varying number of wings (Ghazālī, 2000). It is believed that angels were created before man and have a connection with the forces that created man, as God told the angels of His intentions to create man as stated in a few places in the Qur’an such as in al-Baqarah 2:30 (Ali, 1950). Angels were not, however, given free will as man and jinn were, thus making man superior to angels (Ali, 1950). Angels are completely obedient to God and cannot disobey in any way (Gulevich, 2004). Despite this, angel and man are closely connected. It is thought that an angel is appointed to every man “when he quickens in his mother’s womb” and follows said man throughout his life and even into Paradise or Hell (Ali, 1950). During a man’s life, one or two angels record the man’s actions and oversee certain events. These angels are referred to as kirām-an kātibīn or honorable recorders (Ali, 1950) and on Judgment Day, these angels read their recordings before the throne of God (Gulevich,
Allport defines personality as ‘the dynamic organisation within the individual of those psychological systems that determine his unique adjustment to his environment’ (Allport, 1937). An individual’s unique personality traits and attributes are a powerful indicator of how he/she will interact with the work environment. The difference between average and outstanding employees can often be solely personality related. As the employee is the most valuable asset to the company, ‘selecting the right employee during the process is critical’ (Carbery and Cross, 2013, pp. 41-53)
“How will I be successful?” I think to myself, wondering where my life will take me. The dictionary has many definitions for this term, such as the accomplishment of one’s goals and the attainment of wealth, position, honors or the like. A variety of people have a plethora of definitions for the word “success.” Some define it has having limitless amount of wealth, with an enormous mansion and an array of extravagant cars. Others define success by the relationships they have and waking up in the morning content with the life they have created for themselves. To some it is a mixture of both of these things, and to some it is neither. Success a subjective term that does not have one definitive meaning, which is what
Once upon a time. Satan the devil was an Angel. Some say that his former position in Heaven was equivalent to a modern day Choir Director. Satan was in charge of leading the praise and worship to God. Satan became greedy for power and led a rebellion to over throw God. Satan was relieved of his duties, and dis-fellowshipped from the Angelic ranks.
It is thus that the angels will embark on their first manifestation on Earth in history. which will lead to all those cited by Milton, and the Fall of Man. Works Cited and Consulted The Bible. The Bible. The Bible Daiches, David.
Everybody tries to be successful, yet not every person achieves this objective. There are those of us who comprehend that success comes from our individual conduct and there are those that decline to comprehend this idea. Conduct radically influences one's individual success and there are a few elements to call attention to when discussing this. Successful people realize that the establishment of individual and expert achievement lies in understanding yourself, understanding others, and understanding the effect of individual conduct on others.
I have been studying, writing about, teaching and applying the principles of successful living for close to forty years now. These principles are timeless, changeless and there for everyone to apply and benefit from. I have also discovered that the principles of success are often misunderstood, feared, misrepresented and lied about. None more than the principle of self-confidence.
