There are some really great things about being left-handed. Next time somebody tries to bring you down for being a lefty, point out these things that might make him wish he was part of the left-handed crew:

We are right brain dominated. Being “right brained” comes with all kinds of positives. We tend to be visual thinkers; we are more creative, have a greater imagination, are better at expressing feelings even non-verbally, and are great at daydreaming.

Lefties remember the tunes of songs better than righties do. I know this is true of me. All I need to hear are a few notes of a song and I usually know exactly what the song is.

Speaking of music, according to Medical Daily, we also have a better sense of rhythm, which might explain why I love to dance so much.

Lefties also seem to have a better chance of having a high IQ, or being considered a genius. Twenty percent of all Mensa members say they are left-handed, and among the famous “smart” lefties:  Charles Darwin, Albert Einstein, Benjamin Franklin, and Isaac Newton. And a study conducted at St. Lawrence University found that more left-handed people had IQs over 140 than their right-handed counterparts.

Lefties are better able to multitask. The theory is that being left-hand forces your brain to think more quickly. So we usually have an easier time dealing with a lot of unorganized information and are able to sort through it all.
