Left Brain? Right Brain? Which one should we listen to?

Lately, I was pondering a lot due to some frustrations. Usually if I am on this state of mind, I tried to resists it by reading a lot and replacing my frustration with thoughts that strengthens me. As my wisdom is concerned, everything is a thought that you carry around you. Happy thoughts create a happy molecule while otherwise creates the opposite. While I was working on empowering, the question above pops out in my head. Are you ready to learn with me to get the right answer?

Well, we will start by knowing what this two does. We have what we called Ego which is located in our left brain. Its job is to calculate, figure things out, analyzes, and comes up with the most logical choices for u. It basically thinks, thinks, and thinks! Basically, if you exclusively listen to this side, you ultimately will turn into a pretender or even worse, a commuter-getting up in the morning going with the crowd, doing the job that bring the money and pay the bills; and getting up the next morning and doing it all over again. Meanwhile, the music inside of you (passion) fades almost to a point of being inaudible.

While on the other hand is the Superego which resides in the right brain. Its job is to represents your intuitive side. It is the part of us that goes beyond reason and analysis. It is also the part that feels things, that’s sensitive to love and sensitive to our emotion on what's important to us. It is also the one that allows us to tear up as you hold your baby, or bask in the beauty of a glorious day. The left brain basically analyze it, while the right brain lets u feel it. Now, we know the difference.

Now, the question is that which one is always right? For instance- you’re in the process of embarking your path or in the path in anyway. And you want to do something that would lead you to your purpose. Then, suddenly you hear something in your head that says, “Wait a minute. Be careful, don’t take risks, you might fail; you might disappoint all of those who have a different view of what you should be doing. Then, you know that was your left brain. But here comes the presence of your nagging little creature that sits on your right shoulder and always reminds you of what is your purpose of being here for? It prods you when you’re spending another day doing what somebody else has dictated if it’s not a part of your passion in life. It’s also the one that always hear the music and constantly tap you on your shoulder. Basically, it’s the right brain that always lead you passionately to your purpose.

Now, I know which one I should listen to. How about u?

my 1st video blog

Isn't it life is beautiful? Though we are face with challenge in everyday of our lives, I still wouldn't change my perception that life is beautiful in many ways. I normally express it through blogging. I find a lot of relief in writing especially if I am working toward a goal. Anyway, I probably was bored in writing. So, I came up with something different this time through video blogging. I was amazed when I first release it on face book.; many of my friends made a comment and said that it made them laugh. Well, I didn't know it will turn out to be funny but I sure was glad that I somehow entertained them. I'm looking forward in making some more soon while working towards my goal.

Below is my video:

Unreached Goal (journey of a nursing student)

Just found this video
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxWrLJIlJ8g)
while I was browsing around trying to find something else that uplifts my spirit. I so need it right now. This video perfectly speaks to me about timing. I’ve been through many trials and surpassed a lot of them. Now, I’m in the path again where I want something so bad and I want it certain time and been doing it my way. It’s really kind of aggravating to the point that it makes me want to pull all my hair when you don’t get the result you wanted. Sometimes things just don’t work the way you want it. You can think all kinds of negative things toward yourself due to your disappointments. But you really can’t linger on that for so long because I knew that success doesn’t lie in that point of view.

So, I will wait and keep working toward my unreached goal. Probably have to remind myself over again that God is in control, not me.
