[Psychology] Big Ho-Ha, Left and Right Brains

I see many seems interested to talk about this current big ho-ha (not the Japanese 1937 APC) about Left and Right Brain. Let me put across my explanation.

Left and Right brain is not about which brain you use, but which brain you prefer in most aspect, especially when things become abstract — not politically defined. Everyone use 2 side of the brain, as much as how you need your left and right legs.

Left or right is not enough, but how left and how right? This is about the relative scale of one’s preference to use one side of the brain over the other. The more a person prefer his left over his right, the more left brained he is; and vice-versa. For mid-brained — left and right equally dormant — the difference is not zero, but insignificant.

Because of this, our conscious — the operating system — of the brain may prefer to put focus different side of the brain for different type of work or aspect, which the combination varies among individuals. We all know, although we are all human, none of us are totally similar — even clones.

Those wise cannot rely on their dormant side of the brain, but required to actively able to tap into both brains. This is important to make a decision which is; pragmatic yet ethical, rational yet emotional, and logical yet creative. This is a skill to master for life.
