On the television game show Jeopardy! a contestant had to respond to this: "Scientists tell us we use only 10 percent of this ... and that's too much." The correct response was "Our brain." We only use 10 percent of our brain. The usual point is, if that's all we normally use, just think what we could do if we tapped our brain's whole capacity!
But when I heard the question, for some reason the first thought that came to my mind was "Heart." We only use 10 percent of our hearts and just think what we could do if we tapped our heart's whole potential. I wasn't thinking of pumping blood to the body, but of the heart as the proverbial seat of feelings, emotions, faith, courage, and love.
In that instant, it occurred to me that some people use only 10 percent of their hearts, and they think that's too much.
