+ Try this! Read aloud, as quickly as possible, the colour in which the words are written but not the actual words. GREEN YELLOW BLUE ORANGE WHITE RED GREEN BLUE ORANGE YELLOW WHITE GREEN RED BLUE WHITE GREEN ORANGE YELLOW ORANGE BLUE GREEN RED WHITE YELLOW RED BLUE YELLOW ORANGE RED WHITE BROWN WHITE

+ If you merely read the words, you are likely to be using right brain. Whereas, if you read the colours, you are using your left brain.

+ Left-Brain VS Right-Brain Functions uses logic detail oriented facts rule words and language present and past math and science can comprehend knowing acknowledges order/pattern perception knows object name reality based forms strategies practical safe uses feeling "big picture" oriented imagination rules symbols and images present and future philosophy & religion can "get it" (i.e. meaning) Believes Appreciates spatial perception knows object function fantasy based presents possibilities Impetuous risk taking Left-BrainRight-Brain

+ Summary: Logical Sequential Rational Analytical Objective Looks at parts Random Intuitive Holistic Synthesizing Subjective Looks at whole Left BrainRight Brain

+ Knowing which side is dominant helps you understand your… Personality Learning Style Task Development And a host of other things!

+ Some Quick Facts Our education system conditions us to be left-brained. What does this mean??????? By the age of 7 only 10 percent of children will rank as highly creative. Research shows that we tend to be more right-brained in our early childhood. It has been said that the more educated you are the less likely you are to think strategically. Some of the world’s greatest entrepreneurs like Bill Gates, Michael Dell and Richard Branson were school dropouts with no business degrees! Yet they have proven to be some of our greatest strategists and visionaries…
