You surely read somewhere or listened from someone that we utilize only 10% of our brain. But that's not the case, so what makes this myth so believeable and is there any truth to it?
Let's know,
As per a popular myth, we use only 10 percent of our brain. But that's not the true, we are capable of being more than we are, but there are some limitations which prevents us from reaching the state of our highest being.
Thus, some believe the myth that we use only 10% of our brain because it gives them an excuse to be imperfect. The concept that we use only 10% of our brain capacity has largely been debunked as a myth.
If we believe the 10% brain myth was based on fact, then it would conclude that most of our brain is unnecessary or unimportant. Modern brain scans show that there are activities throughout the entire brain. Even while sleeping, we use more than 10% of our brain.
According to scientists, even simple tasks generally require contributions of processing areas spread throughout virtually the whole brain. This means that we already utilize our full capacity of brain.
