So recently I've really gotten to know myself and my personality type. I've noticed the way that I process my feelings and respond to others more so now just because of where I am right now. I've always thought i was a great socializer and conversationalist, but when it comes to a relationship it's been quite interesting to figure myself out and notice some of my attributes. I've been reading about this stuff a lot through magazines, Body + Soul, and a book called The Color Code. Everyone knows this book, you take a test to figure out what color you are. Well, I've always known I'm Yellow. Let me tell you what I've figured out through these books.
Yellows: value play, welcome praise, need intimacy, want to be popular, like action. Noncommittal, irresponsible but enthusiastic and carefree.
As an individual:
highly optimistic, likes self and accepts others easily, sees life as an experience to be enjoyed, flashy and spunky, adventurous and daring.
As a communicator:
Spontaneous thinker, enjoys and promotes being physical, easy to converse with, comfortable with people, energized by large groups, superb at superficial conversation
As a goal setter:
Appreciates and lives for the present, prioritizes play time first, very flexible, accepts guidance from others, disciplined if he or she finds the task fun and challenging, demands action versus observation
As a Career Person:
people-oriented, friendly, able to take risks, high energy, charismatic and enjoyable to work with, likes to tackle short term projects with visible results
As a friend:
vulnerable, innocent and trusting, endearing, exciting and fun to be with, often prioritizes friends over family, forgiving of self and others, lively and entertaining, willing to free up schedule in order to play
As a committed companion: (Probably need to work on some of these)
brings excitement, promotes intimacy, enjoys unusual experiences, not burdened with emotional strings, few expectations of others, agreeable to change, accepts others suggestions.
Here are my faults that i definitely need to change, but are attributes so true given to Yellows:
irresponsible, unreliable, flighty, lots of talk with little action, superficial, loud, exaggerates. often speaks before thinking, unsympathetic towards depressions in others, interrupts others freely, restless and finds it difficult to stick with long term goals, unwilling to commit, unwilling to invest time in personal growth to improve relationships.
From the Magazine:
I'm a rock: strong and silent. I tend to internalize my on stressful emotions in a relationship and usually need some major nudging to get them out. I find it easier to listen than to share my feelings. (Once again, this is in a relationship, not a friendship as I tend to always blurt out my thoughts or gossip topics). How to fix this - stir things up and try to initiate emotional exchanges. Also, express one feeling a day.
So, it's amazing how many of this information is sooo true about myself. Now it's clear of what i need to work on to better my personal attributes:) I just thought that this was all so interesting!
