My True Colors

Yesterday in Career Exploration, we had a guest speaker come in to help us determine what our True Colors are. I found out, after taking the short survey, that my primary color is Gold. This means that I need specific instructions on what and how someone wants me to do something. When we first got to guess what color we thought we were, I thought green, because I always need answers and I need explanations and answers. Also, in relation to green, if a topic is of no interest to me I get bored very easily and I have trouble setting priorities. However, after a couple of my friends told me I was Gold, I read it over and realized that it really was more of me, simply because I absolutely have to be told exactly what is expected of me. With school projects I cannot stand it when teachers tell me to pick my own topic and let me put in whatever I chose. I feel that if I do this, I will leave out something important that they want included, and to be honest, I'm not the most creative person, so I find it difficult to make my own decisions. However, once I am given what I neeed to include, I do a great job with my information. Therefore, even though as a greeen, I seek to succeed, as a gold, I have to know what I am expected to do.
