Question: Which is the odd one out — the panda or the carrot?
Answer
A carrot. If this is your answer then you have the Western type of thinking. Nouns are really important in this culture, that’s why you’ve probably concluded that a rabbit and a panda are connected by the fact that they’re both animals.
A panda. In the East, verbs are more important. That’s why a person with the Eastern type of thinking will find a connection between a rabbit and a carrot first (an animal eats). While a panda’s food is bamboo thus it’s the panda that’s the odd one out.
This is a classic triad personality test which helps to define the type of thinking.
What should you do about it?
According to Richard E. Nisbett, the people that will become more successful in the 21st century are those who can take the best from both cultures. If your type of thinking is predominantly Eastern, then you should develop your analytical skills. Chess or puzzles can be really helpful here. Analytical skills can be also developed by the means of to-do lists, financial tables, and priority lists.
Those who have the Western type of thinking should work to develop their creative skills. They should read more fiction, learn new things, and play association games. Scientists also claim that green and blue colors in your environment, as well as silence, helps to develop your creativity.
