It is still amazing to me that so many people truly believe they only use 10% of their brains (maybe the people that believe this really do only use 10% of their brains!). There is so much information about the human brain that now shows us we utilize much more than 10% of it. It is scary to think of what our world would be like if we only had limited access to our brain's ability. People will believe whatever they read on the internet without their being proof to back it up.

Its crazy to think about what could actually be possible if we were only using 10% of our brain and we somehow figured out how to unlock the rest. Once the brain is more understood, maybe they'll have a more definitive answer for how much of our brain we actually use.Jeff Wickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10623527245007340427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135720363085979067.post-11786029502958251462014-07-29T15:56:19.080-07:002014-07-29T15:56:19.080-07:00I agree with how you said the 10% theory is common...I agree with how you said the 10% theory is commonly believed, just as you said you once believed it, because it's also commonly pushed and talked about. And I saw that movie as well, it was great! Imagine if we were only using 10% of our brains how much more would be possible.. would it be a scary thing or a good thing? Would we really be able to achieve telepathy and such? I personally do not believe this claim either, I see it more as a factoid. You should look at my recent post about a neurosurgeon's whole cortex shutting down. I wish I remembered more from my psychology class when we studied the human brain. Such an unbelievable thing really.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00724437003947110633noreply@blogger.com
