What Am I Gonna Do About It?

 The Half  Has Never Yet  Been Told

I tried looking up "Center Brained" on the internet and got some interesting results. 

This is what Google says: 

Most search engines do not mention the concept at all. I hope that that will change soon.

I also hope that some brave neuroscientists will hastily take up the challenge to settle the debate about side dominance of the brain. I think I have a very good idea what the research will find, and I hope those who would swear that there is no such reality as side dominance will not only accept that one or the other (left or right) side of the brain can be dominant in an individual, but that endless posibilities exist that dominance can occur in the center as well!

 I believe in side dominance of the brain because, from my years of observation and study, I know that when someone who experiences a stroke sustains damage to the right hemisphere of their brain, it's their left side that becomes non-functional. If the left hemisphere is damaged - and this damage can even come from an accident or an assault - it's the right side of that person's body that will stop functioning optimally.

I mentain that I am a center-brain dominant person because, again from my decades of observation and research, when a right handed or a left handed person is told that an object to to their left or right, there is an almost imperceptible interchange of information within the person, to enable them to seamlessly move or look to the correct side. 

It goes something like this: To the right handed person who is told the obejct is to his/her right right, the brain says, "It's to your dominant side -[the side you use most often]." If they are told it's to their left, the brain will say, "It's to your weaker/recessive side." And the same kind of exchange takes place within the left hander who is told the object is to their left or right.

What happens whch someone tells me that something is to my left or right?  And this I know, not from observation, but from actual experience - my head goes into a tailspin, because my brain trieds to identify my dominant side and finds that impossible.

 However, because I know that I am expected to react in a particuler way - move to, or look in a certain direction,  I simply say something like "eenie, eenie, minee, mow," and choose a side. Most of the times, I guess wrong, and I guess wrong not because I like to be wrong. In fact, I am very competitive. I like to be right! So it has to be an inherent inability that prevents me from moving or looking towards, or pointing to, the right or the left, when I'm required to do so.

Why would I make a left turn instead or right, on my way to a very important meeting, when I know that any delay is going to make me late, and if there is any thing I dislike more than being wrong, it's being late?

There has to be something there, and we need to get to the bottom of it!

I definitely need your help. I need your voice. I need your support. My mission is to make directional challenge recognized, acknowledged and dealt with. Won't you join me in this endeavor?

You can visit my youtube channel @ https://www.youtube.com/@eulenegreenland6433 to listen to my songs about being directionally challenged (hilarious!), or visit my website @ https://www.epatsygreenland.com to get or share some more ideas.

Also, please pick up a copy of my book from amazom.com. The link to it is: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F3XT7HPT  It will  soon be available from other sources as well.

I hope you will help.
