Communication Between the Right and Left Hemispheres is more Important than the Strength of the Sides!
Moments of great invention often happen “by accident.” But is it an accident? I think they are moments of wonderful communication between the two hemispheres.

“Anal” is Really the Left Hemisphere
Thanks to Freud, we know that there is another surface, a layer of thoughts and events that guide us that we’re not always aware of. Freud lay the foundation for searching beneath the surface.
