Guess what?

The color exercise had nothing to do with color. It didn’t matter if you were red, blue, green, yellow, or anything in between.

You were really describing yourself.

If I introduced myself, I might say “I’m Nathan and I’m a graphic designer.”

But that’s not me at all. I am not Nathan. That is a word used to identify me, it is not who I am. And I am not a graphic designer. That is what I do as a profession. It has nothing to do with my character, my beliefs, my feelings, or my real identity.

So when I had to pick a color, I said:

I am green. I am bright, modern, and I get your attention!

Now that tells you a little bit about who I am. So let’s remove the color completely:

My name is Nathan, and I am bright, modern, and I get your attention!

There you have it. An inside glimpse to your true self, and I bet you never tell people these things when you introduce yourself. And I’m really glad you shared them with me because I learned a lot of new things about you that I had no idea of.

wow. you sneaky little devil you!

Ha! You’re right, even though I had an inkling of what it was about, I would never have described myself in those terms. Using the color as a “cover” gave me the freedom to speak more openly about myself.
That was really cool.
Well, on the basis of this exercise, you definitely proved you’re bright, modern and attention getting.

OK, Nathan…..I’m a flight attendant for a reason. Because I don’t have to think too much and just push a little trolley back and forth, wearing out the carpet, and putting up with BS. But as for this psycho mumbo jumbo, I’m lost. I mean, i get it, but it’s making me think….
which is tough after suffering from oxygen deprivation all of these years. it’s green, by the way.

That was way too tricky for me.

You are amazing! A great way to learn a bit more about your readers.
