What "unknown" are you talking about? What I've told you, in the last couple of posts, is well known among those with an educational background in psychology.
We DO use 100% of our brains. It's working all the time. Whether you are controlling it or not.
You're not understanding what I'm telling you. The brain's function is not limited to allow one to think. There is so many more things that the brain does that does not involve thinking. Most of the functions of the brain are automatic, instinctual, habitualized (or familiarized). That's why psychologists say that we only use 10% of our brains. BECAUSE we only need 10% of our brain to think, form ideas. The rest of the brain's function is not needed for thinking.
Do you now understand the misinterpretation of the saying "People only use 10% of their brains"?
It is my fear that mankind is falling into the same realm as past times when everybody was sure the earth was flat and the earth was the center of the universe.
Today we are told that humans know precisly how the human brain works and why it works that way.
To me that would be like making a map of the last Galaxy in the universe, although nobodys been there or knows what it looks like.
"We do use 100% of are brains"?
Now I have nothing against theorys but to make such a statement as fact WELL?
