Are you orange?
Do you wake up most Sunday's with a zest for the day? Are you traversing through your days like water roaring over the boulders in the Grand Canyon? Do you power through the mundane with optimism that the grind is simply making you stronger? Answer yes to these questions and very likely, you're an orange!
In personal branding, orange represents energy, determination, encouragement, success, strength, productivity, vigor, and so many more beautiful adjectives. Orange is vibrant, engaging, effervescent, and dynamic!
When I first started my journey to learn about Personal Branding, I was fascinated, intrigued, and most of all elated to learn about the influence of color and how it transforms "gray" into GREAT!
If you're an orange, you may find yourself in a dark sea, shining a light so bright it may cause others to frantically search for their sunglasses. You may be scowled at, gossiped about, or worse yet, shunned. You may, but for one moment, consider icing your flame, that is burning so bright---but you don't. You forge on knowing that being an orange, is part of your DNA. You meet other oranges along your path and bond over a simple smile and a nod. You know you're not alone.

8yGreat post which I just forwarded to my wonderful niece--with orange hair. Once upon a time I told her she could just put her name in orange on her resume to brand herself. She laughed at me. What do 20 year olds know...I thought to myself. Thank you for validating this aunt!
