A "COLORS" QUIZ

Below you will find a questionnaire for determining your "Colors" profile. As you fill out the questionnaire, set aside what you've been told to be like and try to think of yourself as you are when you're most comfortable and natural.

Of course, we all have some of all these qualities, and they may come out more strongly at different times. For purposes of this quiz, however,try to look beyond specific situations, set aside what others think you "should" be like, look past the demands of your job, and forget for the moment about the requirements of your role in life. Just be yourself as you most naturally and comfortably are. Please note: Extra assessment sheets are provided at the back of the book.

Directions

As you read on through the book, you may find changes in your sense of which Colors best describe you. You may feel that the relative weight of the Colors in your life is different than you thought or even than the quiz might suggest. Remember, you are always the best judge of what is right for you.
