Left Brain or Right Brain?

Left Brain ----- Right Brain
Logical -------- Random
Sequential ------ Intuitive
Rational ------- Holistic
Analytical ------ Synthesizing
Objective ------ Subjective
Looks at parts ---- Looks at the whole

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.

Ok... just so you know... I gave my left-brained self a headache, trying to make myself right-brained! Is being spontaneous and creative really worth all the effort?!?!
