I came across this spinning lady animation. It’s a simple animated GIF so there are not much of tricks involved.
The question is, which direction do you see the lady spinning ? clockwise or anti-clockwise ?
If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa. And this is what the right and left part of the brain do,
LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses logic , detail oriented , facts rule , words and language
present and past , math and science , can comprehend , knowing
acknowledges , order/pattern perception , knows object name
reality based , forms strategies , practical , safe
RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses feeling , “big picture” oriented , imagination rules
symbols and images , present and future , philosophy & religion
can “get it” (i.e. meaning) , believes , appreciates , spatial perception
knows object function , fantasy based , presents possibilities
impetuous , risk taking
To help matters, At first glance she spun clockwise, after sometime she was spinning anti-clockwise and last time i checked she was spinning clockwise. Thats probability playing with me, but i guess i am more right sided than left sided (2 out of 3).


He he he he… being seen so much of things like this… when i first saw…the lady was spinning clockwise… well i dint came to conclusion she is spinning clockwise… if its that easy to decide i hope u wouldn’t hav posted it here… so i waited… after some time she started spinning anti-clockwise… since i thought there is a hook i waited else intrinsically my brain also would hav concluded YES its clockwise… if you really wanna check out the LEFT RIGHT ability i strongly advice to check this one… well there lot many.. but this very simple and straight forward…btw this one very much proves wht u hav written abt LEFT and RIGHT functionality
