My True Color
What is your true color?
Childhood
I wanted to follow the rules and regulations of the school. I understood and respected authority and was comfortable with academic routine. I was the easiest of all types of children to adapt to the education system.

Questions
1) What three characteristics about your color fit you best?
During my childhood I always wanted to follow the rules in school. I can maintain organizations. Also, I expect loyalty. Some that were not like me was that I don't have traditional, conservative views. I really don't expect people to 'play their roles.' Also the last thing that really doesn't fit me is my ability to handle details.
2) What type of job do you believe fits your personality type?
It seems like being a salesperson would fit my personality type, but I don't want to be a sales person.
3) How might your color affect you at work?
My color says I'm very organized, which I kind of am. I always have to have things in a specific place and everything has to be neat.
