Kelly: More Thoughts - Left Brain & Right Brain
Hi everyone! I was without internet for a few days, so I am sorry that I have been absent! I just wanted to stop in and share one exercise with you that I found interesting. I didn't post this earlier during the marathon, but looking back at my journal, I liked this exercise. I have always confused the different hemispheres of the brain and the thinking/feeling skills that come with each side. This exercise helped me to understand which side handles what and to understand where the weaknesses are. It's funny - the left side of the brain works, but only in fits and spurts. I will go on a rampage, getting things organized, thinking about strategies and tactics, etc for a while, and I get to where I'm feeling great about things. Then the next thing you know is POOF and all that is gone and all I want to do is avoid all of that stuff. I see now that those times are when the right brain is dominant. So my goal is to try and balance things a bit more and get the two sides working together more often, instead of working together only once in a while.
Another thing I want to do is to review all of the pages I have done so far at regular intervals. I think I need to check in with these things every two months to make sure that I am on track with my goals and objectives. I'll check my goals more regularly than that of course, but I mean the bigger stuff. Making sure that I haven't veered off in some random direction that is taking me away from the bigger things. You know how it is, you get an opportunity to do something a little weird, and you decide to go for it, only to realize later that it really took you off in a direction that you didn't really want to go in.
I'm still learning, and processing, much of the information in the book. I am also learning from the other artists on this site who have been posting such personal revelations! Stay tuned as we continue to learn and unfold this mystery - this scary thing called The Business Plan.
Happy New Year and here's to a great 2011!!
