Consciousness of Self

I will use the results from the “True Colors Indicator” to better participate in leadership and other group positions. This test helped me to understand my personality type and indicated that I have an equal amount of values from two of the four personality categories. Ironically, the two categories are generally different. I scored highly in both the orange and gold, meaning I value spontaneous adventure while also needing order and organization. I believe these results truely depict my personality and I now know how to use these in a group setting. I know that the orange qualities of being open-minded will help me push others and the group out of their comfort zones. This is necessary because pushing the limits will allow the group to become more innovative and taking risks may lead to success. On the other hand, my qualities from the gold category will help to bring others in the group who are more dominantly orange down to earth and realistic. Being procedural and dependable is needed in a group setting, especially in a professional environment; in fact, adventure is only possible if there is a plan. I believe it is also necessary to understand the perspective of others who do not share identical values. I believe that because I have values from multiple personality categories, it may be easier for me to comprehend this while still using my strengths to better the group.
