TRUE COLORS QUOTE:

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 other’ core

values and needs, you have the basis to communicate,

motivate, and achieve common goals with utmost dignity,

efficacy, and mutual respect.”

-Don Lowry, creator of True Colors.
