Technical Tuesday Light Bulb



Technical Tuesday Light Bulb

You know those cartoons that show a light bulb over a character’s head when they get an idea? Well, it turns out that this is not too far from the truth!

Your brain works on the same amount of power as a 10-watt light bulb. That’s it. Just that little bit of power creates the whole thing. Amazing. Not only that, your brain works, and generates the same amount of energy even when you are sleeping. I guess that explains all those crazy dreams.

Nerve impulses travel to and from the brain at about 170 miles per hour. That’s how we are able to react so quickly to impulses like choreography, or an injured foot. Wow! That’s like the speed of a high-end sports car.

Sports cars and light bulbs. The brain is an amazing thing!

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Secret #28uu:
“Your brain works on the same amount of power as 10-watt light bulb.”

“Learn to light a candle in the darkest moments of someone’s life. Be the light that helps others see; it is what gives life its deepest significance.”
