New Year's Resolution, 2017 (Light Humor)

For the longest time, it has been stated that we use only 10 percent of our brain.
Of course, the hold idea of brain usage is in dispute for a myriad of reasons.

So let us assume that it is not true that we use only 10 percent of our brain.
Let us also conclude with the idea that we utilize far less than is available to us.

Let us suppose that we use 30 percent and declare ourselves smarter than we think we are. With that in mind, I am throwing caution to the wind and saying, 

“Look out world for my brain because in 2017, my resolution is to start running on all cylinders”. I hereby resolve to use the remaining 70 percent of my brain.

30 percent simply is not enough to make the necessary changes.
I hereby apologize for the portion of my brain that has been idle for years.

Just to think about so great a neglect is enough to bring me to tears.
Just imagine how such an achievement helps to free us of so much pain.

Who knows?  Maybe I will be able to inspire a million others to do the same.
Just imagine all of the untapped potential just waiting and sitting there.

Just think for a minute and try wrapping your brain around that if you dare.    
Perhaps we will learn how to build a beautiful new city at the bottom of the sea.

I can visualize a jumbo jet flight from the Eastern seaboard in New York City, sucking in enough solar energy to fly all the way to the City of San Francisco.

I tell you, with a fully utilized brain we could at very low cost make fresh drinking water from the salty sea.   Unlike The Straw Man from The Wizard Oz, 

I have a brain.  Therefore, I  shall resolve to use the other 70% of my brain.  And who knows?  Perhaps we can keep singing , “My Country, Tis of Thee”.

It is going to take more than brain power to save America and the world.
But fully using our God-given brains?  How can it hurt?

(FYI:( There is no scientific evidence that we use only 10% of our brain. On the contrary, an article in Scientific America concludes by saying, Ultimately, it’s not that we use 10% of our brains, merely that we only understand about 10% of how it functions.)
