I
did this test quite long ago and it is no longer available online, but
there are parts which are quite true. Its up to you to decide which...:P
BLUES:
The do-gooders
"Life
cannot bestow on anyone a more gratifying reward than the sincere appreciation
and trust of a Blue friend."
Blues
Are Motivated by Altruism
Blues love to do nice things for others. They look for opportunities to
give up something in order to bring another person happiness. Selflessness
rather than selfishness is their guiding philosophy. Many Blues are uncomfortable
doing things solely for themselves. They hold doors open for people, offer
rides when someone's car breaks down, contribute to charities, even devote
their entire lives to helping others.
Blues
Seek Intimacy
More than anything else, Blues want to love and be loved. A true Blue
will sacrifice a successful career to improve an important relationship.
Once considered solely a female characteristic, this nurturing is more
accurately understood as a Blue personality trait.
Blues
Crave Being Understood
Blues are gratified when they are listened to, when they feel understood
and appreciated. They are notorious for revealing their inadequacies,
because they value being known and understood so much. In the eyes of
a Blue, being vulnerable is a small price to pay for the chance to connect
emotionally. Blues may have their hearts broken more than most people,
but they also spend much more time in love.
Blues
Need to Be Remembered and Appreciated
With Blues, a simple pat on the back will not suffice. Blues expend such
great effort in making the world a better place that sometimes they need
to be told how wonderful they are. They need to be thanked and specifically
remembered for their good deeds. They need sincere gratitude. They delight
in being remembered on birthdays and other special days, especially if
the remembrance is personal--a homemade anniversary card, a welcome home
party, a special day that isn't on the calendar. Blues need tender loving
care.
Blues
Are Directed by a Strong Moral Conscience
Blues are motivated to behave in a proper, appropriate manner. They have
a moral code that guides them in their decision making, their value judgments,
even their leisure time. Blues enjoy being "good." Of all the
personality colors, Blues come equipped with the strongest sense of integrity.
A Blue would rather lose than cheat. Blues are trustworthy. Ethically,
Blues are the people who should be in positions of power, but seldom are.
