The educational system is disastrous for the Right-minded
Am also posting this in the Parenting Projectors Band.
And a link to a Ra video that really first caught my attention on this front in the comments below.
All three of my kids and I have a Right Mind.
For me it’s my one Right variable (the top arrow on the black/personality side of the chart)
I instantly recognized what he was saying here personally and it helped me to guide the kids, also to be a champion for them - even with family members who are Left Minds and of course don’t have a way to directly understand how different it is.
Each of the kids were already Unschooling to whatever degree suited them, but this really helped … continues to help (youngest is now 17yo - a 1/3 SPP) navigate life.
Funnily enough, from the very beginning, John and I called them “the 3 experiments” 🤭🙂🤗
“The Right side is so different.
Everything about the Left is strategic.
So, everything about the Left is, “How do I take advantage of a piece of information?”
Everything on the Right is, “Did I take it in?” There’s no idea, there’s no measurement.
While the Left is looking at something it’s measuring its intensity.
“Yeah, yeah, I got this thing. I’m really focused on it. I’m really honed in. I got it. I got it.”
The Right is just flowing by.
They’re like my dog with its big ears in the wind, just going by.
What happens is that you get very uncomfortable. You get very uncomfortable with proof. This is the thing that’s so interesting.
It’s why the educational system is disastrous for Right-minded kids because the educational system says, ‘Show me what you’ve learned. Show it to me. Tell me what you’ve taken in.’
And of course, the ways in which they do that don't necessarily work to the advantage of Right-minded beings.
Right-minded beings are taking all of this stuff in, but they have difficulty in being able to access it so they don't realize how much they’ve taken in, how deep all of that is.
They’re insecure in those situations where they're going to be tested, insecure in those situations where, ‘do I really know that?’ and they drive themselves crazy. They study until the end of time. They basically die trying to be Left, to hammer it in, to focus it, to build a track to grasp it.
Those things that you take in that you feel like I need to be able to have access to them, don’t worry about that. You only need to have access to it when it's necessary.
And when it's necessary, it will be there, so don't worry about it. Wait and see it happen so you can get more and more relaxed with what you are.
But be present, because if you're not present, you're not taking in all that data. And that's really what it's all about. Take it all in.
And then wait for it to come out. It will come out.”

PS. Our middle kid, now 22 has a 4/6 emotional authority Generator chart - she couldn’t be persuaded to stay home (trust me when I say I tried lol - that kid cried when she couldn’t get on the school bus at 3yo - and she stayed that way, wanting to be amongst’em), and her Network stepped right up and her 4th line has been carrying her forward since the beginning, but especially beyond the family - she has Caves environment- starting at around 6th grade). This was around the same time I bumped into Human Design.
My only tribal bargain around her decision to participate was related to this Right Mind piece - I explained it to her and said “look, if you’re gonna do this, “must be present to win, is real, there will be no skipping classes, or you’ll really be screwed.”
It was true for me too. School was boring as heck, but so long as I was there for the class time, testing was near effortless. No studying was necessary. Online school was a disaster for both of us.
Even in person school was a huge challenge for our oldest (she’s Quad right, the other two are 3x Right with Left Brain variable arrows). She was already 21 when I found this knowledge - and definitely suffered the most on this front. Number 3 thinks he’s missed out having been home, hard to help him know that’s not true in the way he imagines.
The experiments continue 😌
