Real Colors is a tool that helped me better understand my self and others.

Real Colors is a tool that helped me better understand my self and others. It opened my mind to the understanding that what is motivating to me, may not be what is motivating others. Knowing somebody's color helps me determine their motivations and a motivated person is very likely to open up and be influenced, especially when it's in their best interest.
