I'm willing to bet there are many people who actually use only 10% of their brain 😅

[infinite-anon]

The original sentence could still be used as a mantra to inspire curiosity. I could imagine a teacher telling his/her students "we use our brain every second of every day, yet we still only know about 10% of what's going on in there"
Sorta like a neuroscience version of "we know more about outer space than the bottom of the ocean"

U use 100% of ur brain just at different points in time as the day goes on that’s what controls ur body and emotions and all else

[dominicstevenson]

Instead of saying “You only use 10% of your brain. You have so much room to improve.”, you could instead say “We only know what 10% of our brain’s do, we as humans can improve so much.” You can add that too “Everyone can make a difference” and/or “change can start from one person”.

Thank you.
The brain is used 100% of time even during sleep. Controlling the autonomic functions? No the brain is telling every organ what to do. Hormones, autoimmune, growth. Brain is working 24/7 thank you man

That is because there are 2.0 gpa teachers Drs etc being given participation awards for doing nothing way before it became popular instead of the actual process of research by each. Instead of learning in the best possible ways based on the true top tier scientific persons who wrote it.

Yeah, but I mean false premises lead to good movies.

I like to explain it as a motor of a car. While you drive, you use all the function of the motor and some can drive faster and some only can drive slower. 😅

[ContemplatedChaos]

Leave it to the American to completely misstate a saying, then run with it without researching.

Our brain does so much more then think. Like pump blood. I like you to try manually pump your heart ever 3 seconds. If your off by even a second you can give your self a stroke.

"Lost in translation" this also happened in the music industry with a chord called "The Devil's Note"

[GerardoGonzalez-lz]

Bro i got this channel 5 times in a row wth youtube

[clydehinman]

As a person with no brain I can honestly say "how can you study your noodle if your noodle only let's you use 10% of your own noodle to study itself? 😳😳😳😳

[miketaggard]

I couldn’t finish that movie, it was absolutely ridiculous.

[cbclemo]

This guy possibly be the most intelligent, and the most interesting person on the planet.

[darthvader]

[Karen-ef]

These days ???? Some use more than others.😊

[jan-akesvensson]

Först var det 5% nu är det 10% när blir det 15 % ?

[jamalnasir]

That misunderstanding also happened when they once killed a homeless on a stick in Palastine.

[loloadaify]

Most of these people in the room do use only 10% of their brain
