Our True Human Mental Potential
ByThere has been a long-time observation by philosophers, scientists and psychologists alike, that suggests we use only a small fraction of our brains, and therefore a fraction of our mental potential. I hold the same theory, and will attempt to quantify these observations in a series of articles.
The reasons I feel this exercise is important are fourfold:
- We tend to underestimate our potential mental capacity and power,
- We tend to over-exaggerate the ability of the conscious mind to achieve what we desire,
- We tend to AVOID achieving our goals through self-sabotage and various means of internal and external distraction, and
- This avoidance and distraction creates mental pollution that clogs our synapses, dampens our spirits, and reduces our access to our own power.
If I can (over the next few blog posts) show reasonably and conclusively that our fate relies on the vast, untapped reservoir of mental and emotional potential, and that there may be a method to tap into this potential, I believe that the fate of humans on this planet can be powerfully altered.
I will also attempt to show the connection between our potential extinction, and the our capacity to prevent it without massive government involvement.
