This paper focuses on the brain?s clarity seeking process, what has been termed as Ambiguity relief process. ?Ambiguity relief? has four quantifiable clarity seeking processes each with a predictable set of genes and neurotransmitters working on three different parts of the brain. With observation of the genetic foundations of some brain disorders, it was discovered that there were parallels in the brain?s clarity processes. The hypothesis was that the Ambiguity Relief process was directly related to the sequence of taking action on ideas, projects or even buying decisions and this was further tested. Three models, Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument by Ned Herrmann, Human Dynamics work by Sandra Segal and David Horn, and Temperament and Character work by C. Cloninger were studied in-depth and there was overwhelming evidence that there were consistencies in how people got clarity when faced with solving problems, completing ideas, and understanding new information that did not change regardless of the environment or behavior.
