Take a moment to pick your favorite color: do you prefer orange, gold, green or blue? In this test, originally developed by personality innovator Don Lowry in 1978, you’ll discover how closely that color matches your natural-born temperament!

The True Colors personality test is an excellent way to understand yourself and understand others, as part of your inner work. As Lowry pointed out:

Successful people know who they are and what their True Colors are … when you know what your core values and needs are and feel good about them, you can perform at your highest potential in every area of life. And when you share a working, mutual understanding of others’ core values and needs, you have the basis to communicate, motivate, and achieve common goals with utmost dignity, efficacy, and mutual respect.

Take our free True Colors personality test below to discover your color (they’re all different). And don’t forget to share this test with any person you feel could benefit from it!

  2. I received Blue, but I wear Royal Purple most of the time. I react to deep purple as its calming and I feel protected by it. Being a Blue color was tremendous as I am all that it stated. ♥

  3. Wow the color test was spot on!

    Funny Blue is the color people have always said I looked best in and has always been one of my favorites it’s second to purple however it’s the one I generally wear more often.

    The personality part of the color was so true to my personality (good & bad) it’s scary.
