Counter Clockwise Foot & the Number 6
I got this from Avert Your Eyes, and of course I tried it. Oh, this freaked me out good for a few minutes.
----------------------------------------------
This will boggle your mind and you will keep trying over and over again to see if you can outsmart your foot, but, you can't. It's pre-programmed In your brain! Without anyone watching you (they will think you are GOOFY......)and while sitting where you are at your desk in front of your computer, lift your right foot off the floor and make Clockwise Circles.
Now, while doing this, draw the number "6" in the air with your Right Hand. Your foot will change direction.
And there's nothing you can do about it! You are going to try it again, if you've not already done so but the results will be the same.
----------------------------------------------
I've been trying to figure out why this bothered me so much. I think it's because it clearly showed me a very particular and specific limit of my body; of being a human being. I like to believe that I can do anything I set my mind to and that I am not my body and reality is subjective and all that jazz. This is something very clearly shows me that in some aspects, that is not true. There are limits to my body. There are limits to physical existence. I can't do everything I want if I just put my mind to it. Oh, I wasted 5 minutes of my life this morning trying to not have my foot change direction while I drew the number 6 in the air and at the end, with much concentration, so much so I broke out in a sweat, I was able to keep my foot going clockwise. However I felt exhausted and drained, and my heart was beating wildly. Worth it? NO.
On second thought I am not going to count it as a waste of time but a valuable lesson. My brain, my neural wiring is functioning as it should be. This is a good thing. and I believe that whatever lessons my soul or life's energy is supposed to learn from being alive on this particular planet, in this particular space/time continuum, are meant to be learned within the boundaries of a human body.
