After doing this exercise I realized that I am well organized and think things out before I do them but also I like to act on the impulses and spontaneity that I have. That can sometimes come around and bite me in the butt. I know that I have many strengths but it was rather hard for me not think of the things that I struggle with too. Because this was a strengths based activity, it was a little harder to complete. After doing this exercise and making the chart of my personal left and right brain strengths, I noticed that I tend to be a little more right brained than left brained. Even though I have lots of strong points with organization, thoughts, perfection, and strategies; I found that I prefer to be more social, creative, and connected with emotions. I like to listen to others and see their insight on certain things as well as give my own personal feedback and thoughts too. My everyday life can get stressful and that is something that I struggle with consistently. But I know that If I put my strengths to work to rather than focusing on my defects I can overpower the things that I don't do well with the things that I do.
It looks like you have a nice balance between the two, even though you feel you are more right-brained. Precision coupled with creativity seems like a great recipe for mastery to me.
ReplyDeleteIts good to balance the two. I think most of what we do can count as both right and left side of the brain.
