It's mind over matter. You will keep trying at least 50 more times to
see if you can outsmart your foot

1. While sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and make
clockwise circles.

2. Now while doing this, draw the number 6 in the air with your right
hand. Your foot will change direction. I told you so and there's nothing you can do about it.
try it with your left foot and left hand)

I guess there are many more such obstacles that our tiny little brains can't overcome. Our brain is an amazing mechanism to begin with, especially with all the various data it processes at the same time :thumbsup:

The funny thing is that with 38 views, I'm betting at least 30 are still trying to make it happen :laughing7:

There was another task along these lines too, that the brain can't seem to overcome :icon_scratch: But you would think you'd be able to perform that simple task, yet it's impossible

wt; INTERESTING "tag" you have... what yer "take" on where "thoughts come from"?

Look at the mind as a receiver,a radio,it isn't capable of generating it's own signal,just receiver it. Depends on"Who"we are "tuned"to,be it Good or Evil.

NAW... it is the BRAIN, that is the "receiver"; MIND pertains to INDIVIDUAL attributes of the human being, with the MIND as developed by the maturation of the BRAIN. Think "baby thoughts"... DO "baby things", etc. The MIND is the individual "reception" of the GENERAL "broadcast waves"; thoughts are what individually "active" brains/MIND generate. THEN, there are "THOUGHT FORMS"...

Spart ole buddy - I proved you wrong...yet again. I'm really starting to feel smart over here. After the 1000th time I failed to do this I became desperate. I wheeled myself into the radiation suite and had the techs laser my corpus callosum. Now the left side of brain can't communicate with my right! Haha, proved you wrong. I can do this and other tasks all day. Of course, I am experiencing some unfortunate side effects. I can no longer read maps or navigate, I get lost all the time, and my hand-eye coordination is terrible. So I surrendered my driver's license....but heh, it was worth it to prove you wrong.

I think most would have to go your route to do it. Either that, or be a alien, from far, far, away :tongue3:
