Color and life,



What is your favorite color?



Do you like yellow? orange? red?



If you do, you must be an optimist 1, a leader, an active person, who enjoys life people and excitement.



Do you perfer grays and blues 2? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You turn to be a pessimist 3.



At least this is what psychologists 4 told us. They are professionals 5 in this field, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference 6, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings.



They tell us among other facts that we do not choose our favorite color. As we grow up ,we are born with our preference.



If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes or at least as soon as you could see clearly.



Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or gray.
