Gaining balance

When I look at the qualities that each side of the brain possesses I can see that I equally use both sides. I am really good with grammar and reading which is a left side attribute but I am also very creative and intuition which is a right side attribute. When I consider the aspect of obstacles and which side of the brain I would use in order to deal with obstacles I feel like I would equally need to use both sides although it could vary depending on the situation. If I had things to plan and organize my focus would come from the left side of my brain as I used my organizational skills to implement my plan. However, if I was confused and indecisive about something I may rationalize the situation but I always go with my gut instinct in the long run. I have put a lot of meditative work into exercising certain areas of my right brain so that I can come from my heart space more often. I feel like our intuitions are consistently quieted as we focus on the rational instead. I believe that our intuition is one of our greatest gifts and that it should be exercised and utilized more often!
