Given below is a book review in jumbled form. Arrange P, Q, R, S to give its correct sequence. In the often-woolly world of personal development, Gretchen Rubin is a practical and grounded sort. She doesn't even - shock - like meditation. Rubin has spent the past decade researching and writing about happiness. A former lawyer, it was her fifth book. The Happiness Project written in 2009 - for which she spent a year testing different theories about how to live a more fulfilled life - that became a bestseller and made her a star of the self-help world (she also runs a popular blog and podcast). P: After Better Than Before came out, Rubin says, she was, "deluged with questions" about this idea. Thousands took her online questionnaire to work out what type they were, and she started to wonder if our tendency had much more influence over our lives than whether or not we could stick to a diet. "It's related to habits, but it's much bigger than that," she says on the phone from her home in New York. "It might also shape something such as having a fight with a co-worker, or having a better way to communicate with your child". Q: Her latest book, The Four Tendencies, develops ideas first explored in 2015's Better Than Before, in which she looked at how happiness and habits were linked. "[People] wanted to Run," she says, "but for some reason they couldn't make themselves exercise. Or they wanted to write a novel in their free time, but somehow they weren't doing it. It was trying to figure out why people did and didn't break habits." R: The result is her new book, which explores her theory further, and provides advice on how to deal with the four types. She says the failure to understand other people's tendencies can be responsible for everything from relationship breakdowns to failing public health campaigns, and that working with other people's tendencies can improve the way bosses and employees relate; help doctors encourage their patients to take control of their health, and help teachers get the best from students. S: She came up with her own personality framework - the idea being that each of us fits into one of four characteristics she calls the four tendencies. Rubin claims it explains the reasons behind why we do what we do, based on how different people respond to expectations - either outer ones (from, for example, a boss at work) to inner ones (things you want to do for yourself). According to Rubin?s categories, "upholders" easily do what is asked of them by themselves and others, while "obligors" need accountability. "Questioners" need to know why they're doing something and "rebels" resist expectations. She says she truly felt that "I'd uncovered a law of nature: human nature".
