I am a red personality, protector, mover, fixer, human smoke alarm with invoices. Red people do not walk into a room, we assess it. We look for exits, weak spots, who needs help, who is lying and whether the chair can support a man with 30 years of business stress stored in his lower back. Green people walk in and think, what is the system? Yellow people walk in and think, are we hugging? Who people walk in and think, who do I need to become so everyone stays comfortable? Red people walk in and think, why is nobody in charge and why did they put the coffee table there like an obstacle course? That is my problem. I built an entire personality system to understand people, then immediately used it to explain why everyone else is standing wrong. I will say, you're a yellow, you need warmth, then I say it like a police command. Receive warmth now. That is how red affection sounds. It sounds like customer service during a hostage negotiation. I have spent my whole life trying to be helpful but my delivery has the energy of a final notice taped to your forehead. And now I have bombed. App judging comedy, which is perfect because apparently I needed another machine in my life to tell me my tone is aggressive. Bombed. App looked at one of my bits and said, strong premise needs more vulnerability. I said, I have vulnerability. It's just behind a locked gate with emotion light. That is colors of my pain in one sentence. I took pain, put a security system on it and then charged admission. The funny thing is red people do care. We care too much. That is the problem. A yellow will care and bring cookies. A blue will care and adapt. A green will care and make a spreadsheet. A red will care and accidentally reorganize your garage while you are still crying in the kitchen. I have had people say, Jesse, I didn't ask you to fix it. And I am standing there holding a drill, three trash bags and a business plan like, well, you should have led with that. This is why the four colors matter because if you do not understand the color, you think people are attacking you when they are really just loving you with the wrong equipment. I am not cold. I am just efficient with feelings. I do not avoid emotions. I inventory them. If sadness had a barcode, I would scan it, label it and put it in a clean bin next to childhood trauma and unpaid subscriptions. That is my gift and my curse. I can see the pattern. I can name the color. I can build the app. I can clean the house. I can turn a breakdown into a workflow by lunch. But I am learning that sometimes the most red thing I can do is stop fixing. Shut up for 10 seconds and let somebody be human without installing shelves. Even after 10 seconds, I install the shelves. Growth is a process.\n\n[THAT WAS ALL JOKES. None of it was real.
