i love biographies, and anything to do with Psychology. so when a friend talked about malcolm gladwell's interesting findings, i made a beeline to the bookshop and bought 3 of his books - Blink, Tipping Point and Outliers.
reading outliers now, and it's fascinating truths and research. reading about the smartest man in the world, christopher langan, whose IQ is between 195-210 (a normal person's IQ hovers around 100-110), and then going to youtube for an interview with him, makes one realise that what Gladwell espouses in his book is not silly.... now go buy that book if you want to know what he says :)
yelleh belleh and i were watching "Limitless" last night - bradley cooper, the guy with those sharp blue eyes.. he wasn't being portrayed his best side in the movie, but it's a very interesting and entertaining show. they say that we only use between 10%-20% of our brains in our lifetime, so maybe someone in real life will invent something to bring out the other 80% in our brains..and there will be more successful people in this world, less poverty, less manic depressives..

I watched it too. Was interesting. But I think there is a reason we only use 20% of our brains ;) I don't think using it 100% would be all positive going.
i'm sure God gave us 100% of it to use, but we're too lazy to..
