to B). Power sometimes carries a negative
connotation but where positive
characteristics of Reds are concerned, it
drives them to high levels of productivity and
efficiency. Reds boldly move forward with

15.  Blues are motivated by Intimacy. Without their natural
talent to insist on quality and to provide service, our world
would be a far less pleasant place. Blues want to connect
and to be understood and appreciated. If they are not
connecting with you, if they are not plugged into humanity,
then what’s the point? They believe if you don’t have a
sincere connection in life, then there really is no other
value. Earning money, having the Mercedes, and being in
the windowed office are nice but do not represent a
purposeful life to a blue. Blues are very purposeful people
who love to serve and give of themselves freely to nurture
others' lives. They are loyal friends, employers and
employees, and their personal code of ethics is very strong.
They expect other people to live honest and committed
lives as well. Blues are dependable, thoughtful, and
analytical; but they can also be self-righteous, worry-prone,

20.  Motivated by Peace, Whites will do almost anything to avoid
confrontation and to create tranquility. They have a remarkable
ability to understand and draw objective conclusions—they are
the voice of reason, and this is their gift to us. Whites truly
believe that with patience all things come to those who wait.
The problem is that they are sometimes too content with sitting
around waiting. They seek contentment more than power,
money or, for that matter, more than friends. They are happy
having one or two good friends and one or two hobbies. In fact,
they tend to have only one hobby at a time. Instead of trying to
carry on with two hobbies, they will drop one to take on
another. Having two is too much effort. Their only demands
from life are the things that make them feel comfortable. That
feeling fosters their need to feel good inside.
