Harder Than it Looks Key Puzzle

I know this is an optical illusion website, but I have a bit of a puzzle for you guys this morning. It’s a simple little key puzzle, but it’s fun nonetheless. All you have to do is tell me which keyhole this key fits into.

This key puzzle may seem easy, but it’s a little trickier that it looks. It’s pretty obvious that the key won’t fit into some of the keyholes, but other keyholes aren’t so obvious. You’ll have to really look to solve this key puzzle!

Are you a puzzle person too? If you liked this key puzzle, be sure to give it a five star rating below. The ratings help us determine which optical illusions and puzzles get published and which head to the recycle bin!

If you liked this key puzzle, head over and see if you can solve the mystery of the disappearing egg next!

Today’s Daily Brain Teaser (Oct 19, 2015)

What Am I?

I have two arms and a back,

Supported by four legs.

But there is something I do lack,

Actually, I have no eyes to see.

I also cannot move around,

Or at least, not on my own.

Unfortunately I can make no sound,

Except perhaps a squeak.

If you chop off my head,

You are left with a hair.

If you chop off my tail,

Only tea is left there.

One more clue I will add,

Is that you often use me.

Yet you barely ever notice,

In fact I’d much rather be a tree.

What am I?

Check Braingle.com for the answer.

Memory : Corpus Callosum

The corpus callosum is the part of the brain that connects the left and right hemispheres of the cerebral cortex. Most of the communication between the two halves of the brain is carried over the corpus callosum.

Some studies have shown that women have more fibers in the posterior portion of the corpus callosum. This added ability for cross-talk within the brain may account for the tendency for women to be more intuitive and better multitaskers. This interconnect is also very important for reading. This may be why dyslexia is five times more common in men versus women.

Stress : Analyze the Problem

Worrying about a problem reduces our ability to focus 100% of our attention on the task. One way to focus your attention is to answer the following questions.

1. What exactly is the problem? There is no sense in worrying about something if you do not know exactly what you are worrying about. Take some time to write down specifically what the problem is that you are trying to solve.

2. What caused the problem? Sometimes solving the immediate problem is not the correct solution because it does not fix the root causes. Try to determine if this problem was caused by something else.

3. What are all the possible solutions? Too often, one solution is proposed and time is wasted arguing about that one solution. Try having a brainstorm to find every possible solution before you argue about the merits of each one.

4. What solution is best? Once all the solutions have been laid out, it should be a pretty easy task to pick the best one and move forward with it.

If you are in a position where people bring their problems to you for help, this is a great strategy to help them solve their own problems. Simply, ask each person to answer these four questions before coming to you. It is likely that they will solve their own problem, but if not, it will make your job much easier.
