Why Am I Wired this Way?
(Intro to Color Personalities)
Is there a quality that you admire in others, but you don’t see it in yourself? Do you wish you could…
- Fearlessly speak your mind, instead of staying silent
- Always look on the bright side of things instead of only seeing the negative
- Get right to a task instead of putting it off
Why can’t I be like them? I feel so inadequate. I’m so different!.
Let’s face it - you ARE different. And that's a good thing! There is no one else on the planet just like you!
Not convinced? Still believe you come up short?
Let's look at how unique you are and see where YOU really shine!
Color Personalities
You have probably heard of personality types. They are referred to in different ways like melancholy, phlegmatic, sanguine, choleric. Another way to look at them is by “color.”
The color personalities really opened my eyes! A quick and easy online quiz told me my own color and after a little research, I found out that my unique way of looking at the world wasn't wrong or lacking, it was unique. My uniqueness is needed in this world. I shouldn't try to be like someone else, but just bring to others and the world what I'm specifically gifted to bring.
Most of these insights are from Jacob Adamo’s Full Spectrum Freedom! Thriving in a Four-Color World. (His first book. Full Spectrum Success: Living and Leading in True Color, is more foundational, but the second one, the one I read, includes a summary of the basics and much more. I’ve included links to both should you choose to get a copy.*)
Which color are you? Go ahead and take the free color quiz yourself. Don’t overthink your answers. Don’t try to answer the way you think you should. There is no wrong answer. This will help you understand just how uniquely you are wired!
If you’d like, please share the results of your quiz in the comments or join in the discussion over in my Facebook group. (Check out the links below.)
