Experimentation has shown that the two different sides, or hemispheres, of the brain are responsible for different manners of thinking. The following table illustrates the differences between left-brain and right-brain thinking:
Right Brain
Random
Intuitive
Holistic
Subjective
Synthesizing
Looks at wholes
Left Brain
Logical
Sequential
Rational
Analytical
Objective
Looks at parts
Most individuals have a distinct preference for one of these styles of thinking. Some, however, are more whole-brained and equally adept at both modes. In general, schools tend to favor left-brain modes of thinking, while downplaying the right-brain ones. Left-brain scholastic subjects focus on logical thinking, analysis, and accuracy. Right-brained subjects, on the other hand, focus on aesthetics, feeling, and creativity.
So which are you?
Signed,
Right brained and creatively focused
