If you are looking for a little inspiration in your life first read the NYTimes SundayStyles article "A Superhighway to Bliss" by Leslie Kaufman, then click to Jill Bolte Taylor's TED (Technology, Education, Design) Talk. Not unlike Daniel Pink's take on left brain/right brain ideas, Taylor's 18-minute, February 2008 TED Talk speaks to the differences between the two hemispheres in a way that is fascinating and inspirational.Or, read about Dr. Taylor's work, but do try to see the TED Talk.

I loved the beautifully written "My Stroke of Insight - a Brain Scientist's Personal Journey" by Jill Bolte Taylor and her incredible talk on TED dot com. Dr. Taylor's unique perspective as a Harvard neuroanatomist having a stroke, combined with her sensitivity and awareness, produced something as powerful as I've ever witnessed. I want to share Dr Taylor's story far and wide because it's a wonderful story and a great book to read, but more importantly, this is the message we desperately need if we are to survive as a species.
