Resource Circles, or How We Grow

What are the left and right hemispheres responsible for and how to use them to develop resources.

Resource Circles, or How We Grow

Our brain consists of two hemispheres — the left and the right.

The left hemisphere is responsible for logic, experience, systems, consistency, skills, knowledge, conceptual understanding, meaning, and time perception.

The right hemisphere is responsible for emotions, feelings, motivation, intuition, interest, willpower, self-expression, attention-seeking, influence, aspirations, hunger, and ambition.

The left hemisphere is where our competence resides, while the right hemisphere is where our motivation resides.
Therefore, people who try to grow only through developing their competencies will progress very slowly: the first, second, and third levels of education represent the mindset of hired workers.

You need to enter the world through “coolness.” You allow yourself something that belongs to the next level and begin to "accumulate" the resources corresponding to that level. Then the right hemisphere gives you credit and assigns you a new status.

First, you build the wealth you can understand, and then — status. We feel alive, and this gives us the energy and resources to move forward and seize new opportunities.

We are motivated by irrational things. The right hemisphere knows no time, has no age, and identifies itself with a five-year-old child.
