Are you sure it's a myth, ive always been aware of that and beleived it as real although where I found out I don't know. |

Hmmm
This doesn't make sence to me....
"Many sources point to an American psychologist of the early 1900s named William James, who said that "the average person rarely achieves but a small portion of his or her potential" [source: AARP]. Somehow, that was converted into only using 10 percent of our brain."
How can we only acheive a ceten potentual of brain power and then say we all use 100%
Someone teach this writer to not backtrack.
Why don't we use our full potentual, perhaps thats a better way of reggarding lost powers, potentual locked away. |

We use 100% of our brain but not at it's full potentual.
Perhaps like puting a half flat battery in a clock, yes the clock uses the battery 100% but it doesn't give 100% power/potentual
Perhaps I should be a philosopher.
Given the full potentual then perhaps we would be so much more. |
