It's Nearly Impossible To Figure Out How Many Bars There Are Here


Are you the kind of person that thrives when given a challenge? I may have finally found the puzzle that confuses you. I guess we'll have to see if you can count all the bars in this picture.

 Leave a COMMENT on Facebook letting us know what you got. We want to know your answer!
  
                                                                                  
  Think you have what it takes to solve one of the most confusing puzzles on the planet?

Let's take a look...

The task is to count how many bars are in this image. 

Easy enough, right?
Are you totally confused by this image yet?

Yeah, there are a few tricky things happening with this image that need some explaining. 

If you count the top end of the bars first, it looks like there are clearly seven bars. 

So that's the answer then, right? Nope. 

If you take a look at the bottom ends of the bars, something weird happens...
Yep, there are eight bar ends. 
At this point, you may have realized that you have fallen victim to a visual illusion. If you track the top of the far right bars, you will realize that the ends of these bars don't exist, they just turn into the next bar. Not all of the bars are like this, though. 

If you move from left to right, you will see that many of the bars are intact and don't blend into the next. 
How many intact bars are there then?


This is your last chance to figure it out on your own!
Isn't it more rewarding that way?

                                                                      
  There are actually five fully intact bars. Do you see it now? You kinda have to; I pointed right to them.

If you truly want higher self awareness, do this practice and you'll get it. No matter which successful person I have the honor of learning from, they all mention the same thing--emotional intelligence. Everyone knows that emotional intelligence is important. Thought leaders like Gary Vaynerchuk and Tim Ferris both acknowledge the importance of being self-aware, but few people tend to know what self-awareness is or how to improve it. The conversation in entrepreneur culture needs to shift from talking with buzzwords like emotional intelligence to listening to experts who work with clients to improve their self-awareness each day. Let me spend a quick second dispelling some myths and providing information. Myth: We don't know what self-awareness is. Fact: Self-awareness is insight into one's thoughts, feelings, and ways of relating to themselves, others, and the word.   Myth: We don't know how to improve self-awareness. Fact: There is one scientifi...
