How to control the left and right brain?

Division of labor between human brain and brain

In the United States, Dr. sperry, who won the annual medical biology prize 198 1, made a famous experiment. Dr. sperry cut off the patient's brain wave beam at the junction of his left and right brain, then blocked his left field of vision and put a picture or figure on his right field of vision for the patient to see. The patient can explain in words what the figure or thing in the picture is. But if numbers, words and objects are displayed in the left vision, even if the reading method is simple, he can't say their names in words.

Through experiments, the scene of division of labor between two human brains becomes clearer and clearer. The left brain has a language center to understand language, while the right brain has a corresponding music center to receive music. This is obvious from the shape difference between the left and right brains. Secondly, the left brain of the language center is connected with human consciousness. If you hit the left brain, people's consciousness will immediately become blurred.

The right brain dominates the nerves and senses of the left hemisphere, such as the left hand, left foot and left ear, while the left brain dominates the nerves and senses of the right hemisphere. As shown in experiment 1, the right visual field is connected with the left brain, and the left visual field is connected with the right brain. Because the language center is in the left brain, which mainly completes the thinking and behavior of language, logic, analysis and algebra. The right brain is mainly responsible for intuition, synthesis, geometry and drawing thinking and behavior.

Right brain is the source of innovation ability

If you suddenly realize something that has been puzzling for a long time in your daily work and life, or suddenly become enlightened, it is actually the result of the right brain's potential.

Most of the memories of the human brain are stored in the right brain in the form of blurred images, just like the working principle of video tapes. Information is recorded in the right brain in the form of pictures or images, just like film. The so-called thinking is the process in which the left brain observes the image depicted by the right brain while symbolizing and linguistizing domineering. Therefore, the left brain has a strong tool, which is responsible for transforming the image thinking of the right brain into language.

Ains, known as a genius, once said, "When I think about a problem, I don't think with words, but with the image of jumping activities." When this kind of thinking is finished, I will make great efforts to translate it into language. "It can be seen that when we think, we first need the right brain to draw a specific image through nonverbal' information belt' (memory storage).

What is the innovative ability or creativity strongly demanded by modern society? In fact, it is to connect the intelligence information that is considered irrelevant in the mind. The ability to connect. The greater the distance between such irrelevant information, the more novel and strange the idea of connecting them. People can't create information, so creativity is the process of reprocessing existing information. Therefore, if the intuitive, comprehensive and vivid thinking function of the right brain itself plays a role, and the left brain cooperates well, new ideas can be continuously generated.

Left-brained people will be replaced by computers.

At present, the left brain of China people is overloaded, the right brain is idle and wasted, and their thinking tends to converge. What they do is either "swarming" or "across the board". This kind of left-brain thinking mode has produced adverse consequences such as repeated convergence and vicious competition on the industrial structure, productivity layout, investment direction and business model of enterprises or companies, and even everyone's mental model and lifestyle.

With the rapid popularization of computers today, what are the requirements for each of us in the era of knowledge economy? In short, he said, "everyone should be able to adapt to the way the brain is used in the computer age." As mentioned earlier, people have left and right brains, and computers can just replace the left brain, such as Windows95 system, which can organize words and edit articles well and replace some language functions of the left brain. Computers were originally made to replace human logic, calculation, language processing and analysis, which are exactly the work of the left brain. With the rapid development and upgrade of computer function and software technology, the function of computer will far exceed the function of human left brain.

In order to make a breakthrough in the fiercely competitive buyer's market, to stand out among talents, and to creatively open up new development paths for enterprises, everyone, especially managers, entrepreneurs, planners and salespeople engaged in mental work, must fully activate, develop and use their right brains, and must turn their brains to innovative planning, comprehensive judgment, planning, analysis and understanding that computers cannot do. It can be seen that whether computers are used in real life or not, modern people must pay attention to the development and use of the right brain, and the flexible use of the right brain often becomes a weapon for modern people to break through difficulties and win by surprise.

Unfortunately, in real life, people above 95qc only use half brain, that is, the left brain. This is caused by two reasons: one is due to the natural physiological properties of the human body. As mentioned above, because people mainly process analysis, numbers and memory with their right hands, these are all processed by the left brain, and the left brain of the human body runs at full capacity; On the other hand, the traditional exam-oriented education and "cramming" learning methods increase the burden on the left brain. Therefore, traditional education has trained a large number of left-brain talents who only follow the rules and lack adaptability and creativity. In the era of lack of social change, left-brained people may be able to show their talents. However, with the increasingly fierce market competition and the popularity of high-tech products such as computers, people who can't use their right brains will face the dilemma of "competing for food" with computers, and their living space will become narrower and narrower.

Can you still develop the right brain when you are old?

There may be such people in life. When he suddenly heard the concept of "right brain revolution", his pressure was as great as learning computer and English. First of all, he thinks that he is thirty or forty years old, and his brain gradually declines with his age. It's too late to start refining satin now. In fact, this is a big misunderstanding. To develop the potential of the right brain, one should not be aging, and anyone can exercise at any time. Indeed, many people find that their memory gradually declines around the age of 40, and some people who are just in their prime pessimistically think that this is a manifestation of the decline of the human brain. In fact, this is simply a decrease in the number of brain cells, and the function of the brain, especially the function of the right brain, has not changed.

If the human brain is compared to a computer, the brain cell organization is hardware, and the use method is software. The hardware of the human brain is formed in three stages, namely, the first stage is from 0 to 3 years old, the second stage is from 4 to 13 years old, and the third stage is from 14 to 20 years old. About 70% of all hardware is the first stage of formation around the age of 3, and it is basically formed by the age of 20. Of course, these hardware are divided into left-brain hardware and right-brain hardware, all of which have their own software. We use our brains flexibly and generate creative ideas. In fact, we skillfully use the left and right hardware respectively to make them work in harmony.

When people get older, brain cells decline, that is to say, the hardware, including the left and right brains, gradually declines, while the software part of the brain still has great potential, and there is no problem of decline at all. Modern people have received a set of formal left-brain education since primary school, so the left-brain software has been fully developed. Many of them have been seriously influenced by cramming education. However, the development of right brain software is not enough. Even at the age of forty, their brains have great development potential.

In terms of creativity and intuition, the older you get, the more information you accumulate, and the greater the possibility of regrouping. Therefore, it can be said that as long as the right brain software is fully developed, the older you get, the easier it is to produce new opinions.

Anyone's right brain can be activated by exercise at any time. From the point of view of work, the older you get, the more you need to have the ability of right brain. With a more important position, it is not enough to rely solely on the logical reasoning of the left brain. We must accurately grasp the essence of the problem from the chaotic and complicated phenomenon as a whole, which requires the ability to drive the right brain "software system".
