Do you ever wonder how creative you really are? Forget all those long, drawn out personality tests, here’s a super quick way to find out.
What do you see first when you look at the above image – duck or a rabbit?
Most people see both quite easily, but the real test is how long it takes for your brain to flip between the two, and how much you have to concentrate to see one or the other.
Psychologist Richard Wiseman believes that the quicker you can go between seeing the duck and the rabbit is related to your natural creativity. He tested people’s ability to use everyday objects in novel ways, before showing them the image that has been around for over a century.
He discovered that those who could quickly see the duck and the rabbit were also able to make connections between two previously unrelated ideas or objects – a skill attributed to highly creative people.
