You spoke a lot of truth man, thanks for sharing! This was really inspiring to me. When I was younger, I considered myself a strong right-brain thinker. Now at an older age, I've seen myself as a strong left-brain thinker. I've been disappointed, feeling almost as though that right-brain side is inaccessible now. Clearly, it isn't. I'm a very skill-based learner, and I see that strong within myself. That attribute can still help me communicate with my right brain. There doesn't have to be left or right-brain, they can work together as one. Thank you for sharing the knowledge!
I always believed that I was an extreme 'Left Brainer' when I was a teenager as I was only good at Maths and Science and disliked Art in school. However, I have recently, now in my early 20's, have discovered my creative side, and it is very enlightening to discover a new side of yourself.
yeah this happens!! sometimes a school experience, certain class/es or certain teacher or set of teachers can ruin something for you that actually, you really should be doing!!
Wow....I'm so much like you....I'm also skill based learner than content based....Plz do a video on how to make best use of this talent and tips on memorizing things 👍👍
Hey drew! You're videos help me and give me reassurance and confidence in architecture school! I have one question, at your college, was it a 5 year college of architecture? If so, was your first year all about trying to get into the school of architecture? If that is so, what some good advice about the first year? I'm trying to get into the program at ISU this year and it's a little stressful thinking about it
I did go to a 5 year program. But we had what they called a "Summer Workshop" which was like a may-mester type studio in the summer before the fall semester started. So they used studio to weed people out instead of applying with a portfolio to get into school. ...Ask people in the architecture department. There will always be people sitting around in studio lol. You have the advantage of talking to people who have been through that specific application process, so be sure to ask them. If I was to speculate, I would recommend that you practice drawing things (assuming you have to submit a portfolio.) Also, it goes without saying that you should also do well in your other classes. I hope this helps!
The thing with the left brain thinkers is that they learn very fast, so as I left brain thinker I wasn't much of a social person and couldn't really resonate with people, Until I LEARNED the social skills to do so. Left brainers can learn way faster and learn all those right brainers skills, in your case you had to learn how to write but native right brainers had that writing intuition that you had to work on
You videos are very helpful ,I don't know I am left minded or right minded.I like art since I was little,language too.But I don't like grammar stuff.I like physics and math but I hate chemistry.Anyway thank you for the videos,BTW you're so cute when saying yin ,yang!lol
Interesting, I was diagnosed with Auditory Processing Disorder. The test is considered objective when done by a certified audiologist. I have a bad memory for names, and the details of sounds are hard for me to hear. So I can tell people I'm not good at talking about people places or things. But I'm great at understanding concepts, like in science, or math. (oh I make a living as an artist, I don't really have a choice)
i agree with all of this. I always had thought i was a combo of left and right brained (equally content and skill based) but was just doing the dancing woman illusion again and this time I didnt see it change back and forth i only saw her go clockwise! I did another one too which verified i was right brained. I wonder if it can change over a lifetime?
One of your key words is "system." "Math is like a system that you have to understand how it works," you state. You mention a famous thinker, Aristotle, the "Father of Western Philosophy." I believe that you unconsciously discuss writing, an activity of the right side of the brain, as a "system" as well, but one which you seem to address from a logical point of view. You did learn to write, you point out because you had a good, possibly creative instructor. But you also mention that you learn the basics, which leads me to believe that your left side of the brain was looking for compromise or reciprocity between the two sides. As a language major, with a special appreciation for grammar or structure (the logical part of the language), I consider that beyond structure and learning a set of rules, there is the language creativity that stretches far beyond a system or a set of rules. Take Shakespeare, for example, if you've read some of his famous plays. Imagine what it would take to produce the work of Cervantes, as in Don Quixote? Imagine the work of Einstein... Was he a left-brain genius or what? I believe that most of us tend to make use of both side of the brain in small bits, and that is a good thing. The two sides of the brain have to live together in harmony and when that doesn't happen, we may enter a conflict zone.
I’m interested in the idea you described of the left brain searching for compromise or reciprocity. And to think about creativity as being beyond the rules is a great way of thinking about it. I always say, “know the rules, so you know how to break them.” Would you agree?
Left brain more.for language right brain is more for maths and science.. imaginary things. So you got them mixed up dude. Right brains are usually architects and spatoal awareness
Sir, I'm struggling remember spelling and writing. I am preparing for administrative job from last 3 years. Now, what should be my approach to deal it? FYI I'm lefty person.
I’m not going to lie to you, I suck at spelling. So this is only how I would approach it. I don’t know for sure if this would help. But it’s the best direction I can point you in. If you’re better at skill-based learning, view spelling as a system. Learn it’s rules. You’ll probably learn about etymology and where words come from as well as the rules for double letters and “I before E except after C” type of rules. I used to misspell the word “definitely” so badly spellcheck couldn’t even save me. But eventually I realized that it’s derived from the word “infinite” (which makes sense if you think about its meaning) and that helped me get it. Figure out your trouble words and do some research on them. See where they come from. There’s a reason they’re spelled that way. I think if you understand where the words come from and how they’re pronounced, it will start to lay itself out. But like I said, that’s my theory. I haven’t committed to testing it except for that one example. Best of luck!
@@DrewPaulBell Thanks, I will surely work on that from today. One last question. I am practicing writing essays and other articles from exam point of view from last 2 year . But won't able get good sentences to write. Any help?
Practice writing. Write your thoughts in a journal, and make them proper sentences in whatever language you speak. Do that every day for a month. Then if you’re not as good as you want to be, do it for another month.
