SESSION TWO HOMEWORK: MY WHOLE-BRAINED PROBLEM SOLVING EXAMPLE

  

Post a COMMENT to this blog entry and share your experience of a time when you had to use both sides of your brain to solve a problem.

Example: (thank you, Hugo Gomez) "I was attempting to do a tune-up on my wife's car when I ran into a problem: a bad spark plug was stuck in the cylinder head and the opening was too small and deep for my fingers to reach in and grab it. Part of the wire was welded onto the top of the plug not allowing the wrench to take hold of the plug.(L)

I started thinking about other situations where there may have been items stuck inside something. Everything from TV shows where engagement rings went down the sink to images of Baby Jessica. (R)

I know I will need some sort of tool to remove the piece of metal blocking the spark plug. (L)

IDEA! I will use chopsticks to reach down and pull out the piece of metal thereby freeing the spark plug! (L/R)

I start convincing myself that this idea will work because chopsticks are much more slender than my fingers and I should be able to pluck that piece of metal. (L)

It didn't work. I couldn't generate enough leverage to pull out the piece of metal. The chopsticks kept slipping. I couldn't get a good grip. So I got another idea. I needed a chopstick with a hook on one end. This would give me the leverage necessary to pull out the piece of metal. (L/R)

Well, I know chopsticks have straight ends so I get a visual image of what's needed. I immediately know I have to use one of my wife's crochet hooks. It worked! (L/R)"

ANSWER THE ESSENTIAL QUESTION AFTER SESSION TWO

 Please post your answer as a COMMENT to this blog post.

After completing the online session two and all of the homework, please return to this post and answer the Essential Question for Session Two by posting a comment to this blog entry.

Why has it been so difficult to add the gifts of the Right Mode to education and training practice, some of which are intuition, imaging, metaphors, simultaneity, and feeling expressions? 

HEMISPHERIC MODE INDICATOR (HMI) RESULTS BEFORE SESSION TWO

Please post your Hemispheric Mode Indicator (HMI) 

results as a COMMENT to this blog post.

My HMI score was -1, favoring the left hemisphere, 

but only just barely so.

I feel that this score adequately represents who I am. I can adjust myself to focus in on details, be organized, calculate, work towards goals, consider management, remove myself from situations, and use words to my advantage. On the other hand, I can also let loose, be creative, go with the flow when neccesary, make connections, use pictures and graphics to my advantage, and be empathic. I have the ability to shift back and forth.

However, this can also create chaos in my life. There are times when I can literally feel my brain floundering. I can't explain what it feels like. I visualize it as oil and water that has been swirled together. Sometimes I'm presented with a problem or situation and I simply freeze. I can feel my brain jumble up as it tries to decide which half is going to take over-as though the two halves are at war with each other. It's the strangest sensation. I wish I knew how to make them work together...
