Left or Right brained?

Post by X-Trade »

A bit of fun, but perhaps has implications for creativity.

47% left, 53% right.

Seems fairly balanced. Whoda thunk? :)

I seem to be equal at 50% I sure hope one side is not canceling the other out. If so I'm in a bit of trouble.

69% right brained. lol
That´s ridiculous!

This whole left/right brained thing is bogus. You need both parts working together. We still don´t know how both parts do all their work, so how can someone decide wich parts doing more work in your head. Typical pseudo science.

You use your brain equally.

apparently juggling helps strengthen the connections between both sides of the brain and I love juggling. also kinda both-handed but left dominate.

I'm both minded but I'm a righty.

I noticed that when I use my left hand, my right side brain starts to wake up and stimulates creative thoughts and relieves the tension of the left side. Also when I work out, I let the left hand lead instead of the right. This prevents from one arm looking bigger than the other but stimulates creativity as well. No joke.

I wish I was a bit more 'left'. I might then be able to grasp the tech side of things better. Aw, what the hell, the keyboard is still laid out in the usual way, so let's just rock an' roll, baby!

Thanks to juggling, both halves of my brain became equally bruised. Was ever retrieving my dropped balls from behind the fridge.

I have now removed the mirror from above the fridge. :-)

Back on topic, I wonder if a big lottery win could help out here:

Wanted: a Left-brain personal assistant to take charge of all the button- pushing aspects of my arranger keyboard. Ball-retrieving duties are mandatory.
