True Colors Sample Report Personalized Report for: Sample Report Valuing Differences - Creating Unity FOR EVALUATION USE ONLY - NOT FOR RESALE AND NOT REASSIGNABLE Congratulations on completing your True Colors® Online Assessment! Thank you for taking the time to answer the questions in the True Colors® Online Assessment. True Colors® is a model for understanding yourself and others based on your personality temperament. The colors of Orange, Gold, Green and Blue are used to differentiate the four central personality styles of True Colors®. Each of us has a combination of these True Colors® that make up our personality spectrum, usually with one of the styles being the most dominant. By learning our methodology to identify your personality and personalities of others, True Colors® provides you with insights into different motivations, actions and communication approaches. Although it is based on the complexities of psychology and temperament theory, True Colors® works because it is clear, easy to remember and easy to use in all circumstances. Your color spectrum and interpretation is provided below: Raw Score Percentage Score Page 2 of 28 First - Brightest – Most Dominant (Primary Color) Your strongest, most dominant personality trait is Orange. The characteristics in this No. 1 spot on your color spectrum indicate the traits you most prefer to operate from and truly represent you. Your brightest color traits and characteristics are most likely the attributes you draw upon when you are being your most natural self—the ones that happen automatically, like writing with your dominant hand. Second – Extremely Influential The second color in your spectrum is Blue. Your second color Blue will have a major influence on your first color Orange. Sometimes it will even outshine your first color. Your second color Blue will often be confused by others as being your first color Orange because you are able to call on your secondary color strengths in many situations. Third – The Back-up The third color in your spectrum is Gold. Your third color Gold is not so much an obvious part of your personality; however, it is an important fallback position for your first two, especially when these strengths are required and appropriate. Your Gold abilities support your Orange andBlue personality traits; however, you can feel depleted if you are called on to use these skills for extended periods. Fourth – Palest The last color in your spectrum is Green. This is significant because these characteristics are the least natural to you. You may admire them in others, or more commonly, these traits may cause the most irritation or conflict with others. This is because they are the least natural for you, and possibly the least understood or appreciated. Page 3 of 28 Your True Colors® The color that we operate in will be influenced by the activity. Your True Colors® spectrum is a combination of the four color styles: Orange, Gold, Green and Blue. Most likely, one color will be more dominant than the rest; however, your personality will be influenced by the needs of the situation you are operating in and your environment. This does not mean your personality changes; it is a reflection or an individual’s use of the full scope of their personality traits adapting to complete a task or to conform to a requirement or group. Your Gold may be required to take on a leadership or planning role, your Green to complete a research or development project, your Blue to find empathy in a parenting situation or your Orange in a social setting. Certain interpersonal interactions may brighten different aspects of your personality. A visit to your accountant may require you to draw on your Gold or spending time with children can bring up your Blue. This is because the people in our environment have a definite influence on our behaviors. Our basic character ingredients may remain the same, but whom we are with or what role we’re playing may influence what color is in operation at any given time. Sometimes we even find ourselves pressured to act in certain ways to be accepted or fit in that are not natural to us. Keep this in mind when determining your True Colors®, or the colors of others. Look for the underlying motivation for the behavior. If a person is following the rules because it is the appropriate and responsible thing to do, it is different than someone following the rules to keep harmony or to be liked or accepted by others. Notice that the action is the same but the motivation behind it is different. Page 4 of 28 Uniquely YOU ! As you read through this personalized report, you will recognize you have a unique blend of color characteristics from your most dominant and second color to your third and perhaps a hint of your palest color. Although extensive, this report simply scratches the surface of your personality—like the iceberg that shows only its tip above the water, there is so much more underneath. Use this report as a treasure map to begin or contribute to your journey of self-exploration. Its main purpose is to provide an entertaining glance into your personality and spark your curiosity to investigate further. Enjoy the experience of gaining awareness of your own strengths, values and unique style! You can explore all our training and consulting services at www.truecolorsintl.com. "Man's main task in life is to give birth to himself, to become what he potentially is. The most important product of his effort is his own personality”. -Erich Fromm Primary Colors - We each lead with one color, our most prevalent personality traits, but we have all four color types within us to some extent. This is why the full spectrum is an important feature to the True Colors® model. It is a fast and easy tool, but not fully representative, to refer to yourself as just one color type. For example, the statement that “I’m a Blue” is a useful, but incomplete statement. Stating our first color just touches the surface of who we are. The basic premise is that an Orange personality has the traits of boldness, action, and immediacy, a Gold is a details person that thrives on order and tradition, a Green is inquisitive, a thinker and respects intellect, and a Blue is a nurturer and people pleaser. YOUR Primary/Dominant Color: Orange Cheerful and Optimistic Oranges feel the need to be free to do as they wish. For them, action is the thing—to its own end. Although they do not object when their deeds contribute to the ends held by others, it cannot be the reason for doing what they do. Oranges do things because they have the impulse, the whim. All Colors feel these impulses at one time or another, but society disciplines them in the name of duty, power or spirit. To wait, to save, to store, to prepare, to live for tomorrow—this is NOT their way. Duty, power and spirit are of secondary importance to Oranges. Other primary colors practice their skills; Oranges do not practice because this is only preparation for future action; instead, they do, such as the person who climbs the mountain just because it’s there. Page 5 of 28 "The person who goes farthest is generally the one who is willing to do and dare. The sure-thing boat never gets far from shore." ―Dale Carnegie Being Free To esteem yourself, you need to feel free to act on a moment's notice. Acting and doing carry their own joys. Those with an Orange personality choose to be impulsive, preferring to act upon the idea of the moment. You take pride in being highly skilled in a variety of fields. Oranges are also known to be master negotiators. Adventure for you is the joy of life, and you want to test its limits. The hands-on approach to problem solving suits you best. Your direct line of reasoning creates excitement and immediate results. Your friends would describe you as “exciting, optimistic, cheerful, light-hearted and full of fun”. You are socially charming and witty. An Orange like you brings a brighter, more colorful atmosphere into a room that is charged with adventure. Just Do It You tackle life with enthusiasm, moving quickly from one activity to the next. You thrive on working under pressure and prefer to work on jobs that are lively, risky and unpredictable. Being tied down and having your personal freedoms limited makes you restless. You are straightforward, realistic and practical bringing a flair of energy and excitement to a place. Talented, resourceful, skillful and adaptable by nature, you are upbeat and social, presenting a positive and confident self-image to the world. "Seize the Day" is your motto. You like to be where the action is, and, if it is not there, you might just be tempted to create it! "No, you never get any fun out of things you haven't done." ―Oscar Wilde The Performers You are naturally skilled and physical so you tend to gravitate to pursuits that allow you to express this. You may be a performer on stage, a sports person or athlete, a sales professional, or a skilled tradesperson. The key for you in all that you do is to keep variety in your daily activities and have regular personal interaction. To sit in an office and do repetitive work constantly away from other people is your idea of horror. You like to juggle multiple projects, make quick decisions and are a risktaker. You are noted for your quick wit, flexibility, initiative and positive outlook. Courageous, competitive and resilient with great endurance, you are not afraid to question the status quo and take charge.

As you sing the songs again, may they recall memories of sunny days, and some misty and rainy ones too, of sailing on sparkling blue water, of cantering along leafy trails, of exploring the beach when the tide is out. May these songs remind you of unexpected adventure, and of friendships formed through the sharing of Summer days, working and playing together. 1 Index of songs A Gypsy‘s Life…………………………………………………….7 A Junior Song……………………………………………………..7 A Walking Song………………………………….…….………….8 Across A Thousand Miles of Sea…………..………..…………….8 Ah, Lovely Meadows…………………………..……..…………...9 All Hands On Deck……………………………………..……..…10 Another Fall…………………………………...…………………10 The Banks of the Sacramento…………………………………….…….12 Big Foot………………………………………..……….………………13 Bike Song……………………………………………………….…..…..14 Blow the Man Down…………………………………………….……...14 Blowin‘ In the Wind…………………………………………………....15 Boy‘s Grace…………………………………………………………….16 Boxcar……………………………………………………….…..……..16 Canoe Round…………………………………………………...………17 Calling Out To You…………………………………………………….17 Canoe Song……………………………………………………………..18 Canoeing Song………………………………………………………….18 Cape Anne………………………………………………...……………19 Carlyn…………………………………………………………….…….20 Changes………………………………………………………………...20 Christmas Night………………………………………………………...21 Christmas Song…………………………………………………………21 The Circle Game……………………………………………………..…22

Patio areas or narrow spaces along exterior walls of buildings can take on new appeal with the addition of vines. Vines are suited to nearly any garden style. They require supports such as fences, trellises, arbors, and pergolas. You can even grow them in containers wherever space is at a premium, but you must provide them with support. They will add height and definition to any area where you choose to locate the pots. Perennial vines are often classified by how they cling to a support: twining stems or petioles, tendrils, and aerial roots with adhesive disks. The latter two can sometimes damage the surface to which they adhere, so it's always a good idea to talk to your friendly nursery staff, master gardener, or extension agent before you purchase one of these vines. Clove Currant Vine 1 Twining Petioles Twining Stem Tendril Adhesive Disks Poppy Mallow Vine There is yet another category of vines, but they don't fit the classifications above, since they don't twine and don't have special structures that allow them to cling. Among these are several of my favorites: Clove Currant Vine, Poppy Mallow Vine, and Vining Asparagus Fern.
