Then, of course, they ask for lots of information which one can fast forward through to cut to the chase. What are my strong points according to my color pick. Obviously color preferences change, as in the 1970's we had an orange house--well, more of a cantaloupe.

Now, I asked my sweet Thomas if he thought the strong points were truly me.

FIRST CHOICE ACCORDING TO color@deweycolorsystem.com was

ORGANIZER
Self control
Practical
Self-contained
Orderly
Systematic
Precise
Accurate

followed by:

PERSUADER
Witty
Competitive
Sociable
Talkative
Ambitious
Argumentative
Aggressive

Tom thinks I am more of a natural persuader than a organizer. So there has to be some influence on what you have done in your life. In the categories listed under organizer, there are seven I have done. Under persuader it lists working with people in positions of leadership and power, of which I can name several situations in which I have been in leadership, except, of course when the principal of the elementary school considered me too radical to be president of the PTA! (Grinning).

A little blurb at the top of the page says, " If you like to type you may be a data entry operator but you WANT to be a fiction writer."

As a O, I best get my orderly self on the move; As a P, I best persuade and lead on. Or is that get the lead out?

Now what if I had taken this in 1970 while sitting in the kitchen with huge orange flowers in the wallpaper?
