The two-sided brain

The left side has responsibility for –

     logical reasoning and analysis,
     things that occur in sequences,
     numbers and mathematical ability,
     language and verbal skills,
     linear thinking.


The right side has responsibility for –

     creativity,
     intuition,
     imagination and daydreaming,
   random, unordered thinking, or in other words thinking out of box, crossing the traditional boundaries and thinking something new.



Note : Engineers and lawyers are “left-brained” people, while artists an poets are “right-brained.”
But most of us have our left side brain to be dominant and this is due to too much emphasis of our education system on concrete empirical values and proofs which makes the left side dominant. This is the reason why most of us are poor in creativity.
