ral wife or mother.
Should Aim At
This man should aim at building up his body and practicalizing his
mental processes.
Should Avoid
The Cerebral should avoid shallow, ignorant people, speculation and
those situations that carry him farther away from the real world.
His Strong Points
His thinking capacity, progressiveness, unselfishness, and highly
civilized instincts are the strongest points of this type.
His Weakest Points
Impracticality, dreaminess, physical frailty and his tendency to plan
without doing, are the traits which stand in the way of his success.
How to Deal with this Type Socially
Don't expect him to be a social lion. Don't expect him to mingle with
many. Invite him when there are to be a few congenial souls, and if he
wanders into the library leave him alone.
How to Deal with this Type in Business
Don't employ this man for heavy manual labor or where there is more
arm work than head work. Give him mental positions or none.
If you are dealing with him as a tradesman, resist the temptation to
take advantage of his impracticality and don't treat him as if you
thought money was everything.
_Remember, the chief distinguishing marks of the Cerebral, in the order
of their importance, are the HIGH FOREHEAD and a PROPORTIONATELY LARGE
HEAD FOR THE BODY. Any person who has these is largely of the Cerebral
type no matter what other types may be included in his makeup._
To Understand Combinations
Determine which type PREDOMINATES in a subject.
If there is any doubt in your mind about this do these four things:
1st. Note the body build--which one of the five body types (as shown in
Charts 1, 3, 5, 7, 9) does he most resemble? (In doing this it will aid
you if you will note whether fat, bone or muscle predominates in his
bodily structure.)
2nd. Decide which of the five typical faces his face most resembles.
3rd. Decide which of the five typical hands his hands most resemble.
4th. If still undecided, note his voice, gestures and movements and they
will leave no doubt in your mind as to which of these types comes first
and which second.
Having decided which type predominates and which is second in him, the
significance of this combination is made clear to you by the following
law:
Law of Combination
The type PREDOMINATING in a person determines WHAT he does throughout
his life--the NATURE of his main activities.
