LEFTY BRAIN TEASER
Because their brains are organised differently, left-handers see and think differently and can get some very different results from various "brain tests", usually doing very well on tests that involve creative thinking or unravelling complex images and manipulating 3D images. Here's a famous test of creativity - have a look at the image below:
A non-creative right handed brain sees only a hodgepodge of disconnected shapes, but the left-handed brain can go beyond logic and find the connecting concept that makes sense of the shapes. If you can't "see" beyond the shapes, it's because your right-handed brain is trying to solve the problem and won't let your left-handed brain have a go. Still can't see the picture?
( The picture is of a dog drinking from a stream, with its head in the middle of the picture facing down to the water and its tail off to the right. )
