Most people can’t find the error hidden in this photo. It takes a real genius to spot the mistake. Can you find it in under 40 seconds?
Paying attention to the little details in life is so very important. Besides making sure you are always operating with the most amount of information as possible in real life, it can benefit you in other ways too. For example, when you are trying to solve a problem or find a solution, noticing small details is of ultimate importance. This kind of attention to detail helps with logic puzzles too! When you need to spot the mistake, this kind of critical thinking will help you more than you know!
When your brain sees an image, and some of the information is missing, the brain “replaces” that info with something it “knows,” or “recognizes.” Because of that, it takes real effort to bypass your brain’s natural responses and find the solution to these puzzles. Similar to a jigsaw puzzle, when you have to spot the mistake your brain needs you to do the work. Doing this kind of mental exercise has numerous benefits too!
According to Baylor College of Medicine, “Studies have shown that doing jigsaw puzzles can improve cognition and visual-spatial reasoning. The act of putting the pieces of a puzzle together requires concentration and improves short-term memory and problem-solving. Using the puzzle as an exercise of the mind can spark imagination and increase both your creativity and productivity.” These are all fantastic reasons to try some puzzles out today!
