Brain styles

Now we are on to the good stuff! Wouldn't we all like to know how the different parts of our brain work together?
How do you balance risks and opportunities?
Do you work hard to avoid risk (evaluative)?
Do you like novelty and enjoy change (innovative)?
Do you focus on data that is rational or emotional?
Think about what you usually notice - not how you act.
When you walk into a room, do you notice how many people there are; average age; proportion of males to females (rational data)?
Or, do you pick up on the “mood” in the room (emotional data)?
How do you balance motivation for the present and the future?
What gives you energy?
Is it getting into action in the short term (practical), or by having a strong vision of the future (idealistic)?
