Red face left or right............

Does anyone here have 'trouble' with left and right, ie. you want to do a steep turn to the right, but you actually turn to the left?
After about 4hrs of uneventful PPL training I had a discussion with my ever patient instructor (stoic lot those Dutch!) about this problem. Next time up........you guessed it.....I announce "Steep turn to the right"...lift the left wing a little to clear any traffic, repeat same on the right, then promptly roll 45' to the left

Now, without fail, I'm having to think twice if not three times about which way to turn.

What the f@@k is wrong with me?????

I read about it in a book called "The Naked Pilot", and seem to have poisoned my mind.

Help!!! any shrinks out there??
