Which Way is She Spinning:
Posted: Thu Aug 28, 2008 6:39 pm
OK - watch her - is she spinning clockwise or counterclockwise to you?
If you see this lady turning in clockwise you are using your right brain. If you see it her tuning the other way, you are using left brain. Some people do see both ways, but most people see it only one way.
See if you can make her go one way and then the other by shifting the brain's current.
BOTH DIRECTIONS CAN BE SEEN.
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:
The Left Brain is:
Logical
Sequential
Rational
Analytical
Objective
Looks at parts
The Right Brain is:
Random
Intuitive
Holistic
Synthesizing
Subjective
Looks at wholes
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 activities. Left-brain scholastic subjects focus on logical thinking, analysis, and accuracy.
Right-brained subjects, on the other hand, focus on aesthetics, feeling, and creativity.
If you look away, she may switch from one direction to the other.
If you look at her feet or relax and look at the floor where the reflection shows, she might switch direction!
BTW, I'm a left brain person.
