Society keeps finding way to pigeonhole us. We get various classifications since the day we are born. Foolishly, we believe what we are told. Could it be time to look closer at some of these classifications and maybe send them on their way to the garbage bin?

We have been told that left brain people are those thinking in words, sequencing, use linear thinking, use mathematics, use facts and logic. I guess this would be everyone.

The right brain crowd are those feeling visualizations, using imagination, intuition, rhythm, holistic thinking and arts. I guess this would be just about everyone.

You may have heard of the term “golden brain” used to refer to people who use both sides of their brains equally. This is very similar to how people are either right handed or left handed, and some people are ambidextrous. This comes from localization of function, or lateralization, in the brain.

The idea that there are right-brained and left-brained people are a myth. The brain theory is not correct.

A 2013 study looked at 3-D pictures of over 1,000 people’s brains. Their results show that a person uses both hemispheres of their brain and that there does seem to be a dominant side. However, a person’s activity does differ, depending on what task they are doing. ( medical news today. com)

Conclusion: We are all “golden brained” and can achieve anything and everything we set out to do. The determining factor is how much do we want it. Drive and inspiration are driving your car (brain). Just turn on the ignition and ride Sally ride!
