Dewey Color Career Counselor

For those of you who follow Young House Love, this is old news...

For those of you who don't - whoa. This is an awesome quiz. I love learning more about myself and this quiz has an interesting take on it. It is called the Dewey Color Career Counselor from Career Path.com.

Here's the original link if you'd like to take advantage yourself:

So the quiz asks you to identify colors that you like and don't like and then compiles information about your personality and how that relates to your career choice. Here are my results:

"Task-oriented careers where you can become absorbed in the job, be original and creative, and not conform to rigid company rules will work best for you. Unstructured organizations, for example, that allow you to sail your own ship are vital."
