| different shades of gold |
| 06.14.04 (2:03 pm) [edit] |
I've been off the last few days on a cold, now I'm back! I think I should start getting into the different personality types, so that I can write about the more interesting topics around human dynamics. I'd like to follow the easier route to define the human types in the world, so I will start with TRUE COLOURS.
The first type of personality I’d like to summarize in TRUE COLOURS is called the dependable GOLD. I guess the colour GOLD symbolizes longevity, dependability and security, and hence the personality.
GOLD temperament generally consists of the following traits: they are motivated by responsibilities and security. They do not like to be left out of the loop and be surprised. They need lots of heads-up. They value promises, and they try very hard to keep them. They are practical and quick to make decisions. Therefore, some have said that GOLD’s are born leaders. Of course, it takes some other traits to be a great leader, such as being able to speak one's mind. They want to finish chores before they play, and feel uncomfortable leaving things half-done.
If you are familiar with Myers-Briggs, you know that there are four personality dimensions in that theory. Each dimension consists of two opposing preferences. If you are not familiar with it, don’t worry. In Myers-Briggs, the two personality dimensions that dominate this temperament are SENSING and JUDGING. The SENSING part speaks to the fact that GOLD is very practical, likes to think of present situation and focus on details more than looking at bigger picture and dealing with vagueness. They are generally organized, and like to stay organized. Therefore, they need lead time to get organized and do not like surprises.
Whether a GOLD person values personal relationship and harmony or not depends on the way they like to make decisions. While the logical GOLD will demonstrate stronger leadership and attract followers, the sensitive GOLD will attract more friends, and they are often viewed as the best friend a person can have - both considerate and reliable.
Another lesser influence to the GOLD personality is the energy gathering method. If a GOLD is extravert, he/she feels energized when around people, being sporty, and travelling. The introvert GOLD can appreciate time alone and is able to arrange activities by themselves. Extravert GOLD tends to be more expressive, and introvert GOLD tends to be quiet and reserved. In both cases though, they still share the basic GOLD traits mentioned above.
The GOLD people values security. They work hard to provide a sense of security financially, emotionally and physically.
They respect traditions and authorities. Changes are not welcome if they come unexpectedly. Again, it goes back to the personal trait of needing lead time to get organized.
Because they are organized, detail oriented and like to be certain, they are good planners. If you have a plan or project, they are your best executers.
So, start forming a picture of GOLD yet? Do you know one?
