it may not be noticeable but the next time you sweat, get thirsty, get hungry, feel pain, feel any sensation at all, that your brain had to go and find the memory of those things by itself without being asked, just doing it, and giving it to your body in a matter of milli-seconds.
your brain has the ability to delay certain sensations, such as pain, but only when absolutely necessary will it do this.
your brain is constantly doing minor and major adjustments to your body, keeping you alive, so if im using 10%, how do i survive doing math problems?
All of the functions of living are controlled by a very very small portion of the brain, by the back of the head and brain stem. Nothing more. Many animals have ONLY this. Heart beat, breathing shit of that nature.
The other lobes and smaller sections only control small parts such as the 5 senses(very very basic general psyche even teaches this)
The rest of the cerebral cortex contains a vast array of information we just can't or don't tap into all at once. We may be using bits from every section of the brain all at once, but it's not working to it's full capacity all the time, not even close. But we use 85-100 percent of it's possible functions, but not to their fully possible functionality.

Wow that was something to think about.
My theory is less complex then that. I just saw a special on the Human body on discovery channel, and that shit explains alot. Most of your responses are due to chemical reactions and releases of hormones when the body feels its under stress or danger which can be instantaneous.
In your long boarding issue it is actually the release of adrenaline probably. Which made you react faster and handle your situation.

Quote:
Epinephrine is a "fight or flight" hormone, and plays a central role in the short-term stress reaction. It is released from the adrenal glands when danger threatens or in an emergency. Such triggers may be threatening, exciting, or environmental stressor conditions such as high noise levels or bright light (see Fight-or-flight response).
An example of noise-induced trigger of epinephrine release is tinnitus. The fight-or-flight response caused by tinnitus is a contributor to physical stress seen in tinnitus-patients,[4] exacerbating the case.

Try and find your thoughts before you show your words.

brain≠mind. I think that the mind functions outside the brain-time. Intuition is thru the pineal gland which is hyper dimensional
and not limited by time, hence it's psychic ability to us.

This kind of thing must be where that theory comes from, the one about using only 10% of your brain.

Maybe the government controls YOUR mind... (I hope not, for the government's sake) but your brain is the only thing that can keep you free. You might consider practicing using it.
