In which we explore the concepts of phenomena, productivity, and human capability. One claim we mentioned in this episode was that humans only use 10% of their brains.

Even people with degenerative neural disorders such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease still use more than 10% of their brains. Recorded October 02, 2024 Please continue the conversation with us!
