Have you ever been in a situation where you want to use creativity but find it challenging to make creative decisions? Say you are writing a love letter but don’t know how to use exact romantic words to express your love. Or, you are preparing a presentation to impress your client, and you are having trouble deciding on which color scheme to use, which font would look the best, etc.?
A simple interesting technique called ‘reverse connection’ helps you make creative decisions within a few minutes. Do you know that the left brain is connected to the right hand, and the right brain is connected to the left hand? The ‘reverse connection’ technique uses this connection.
You know that the right brain works on creativity, imagination, and visualization. Whenever you wish to activate the right brain, enhance its functionality, or make creative decisions, approximately from 5 to 20 minutes, use your left hand to do ordinary tasks. For example, you are writing a poem, and are stuck at the last verse, use your left hand to draw lines on a piece of paper, or wash the dishes using your left hand. Take conscious efforts to activate the right brain. Similarly, to activate your left brain, use your right hand to perform ordinary tasks.
I hope that you will make use of this technique in your everyday lives.
