Features of the Human BrainConsists of :

-78% water & air,-10% fat

-8% protein.

•Average weight: 1.5 kg | volume: 1130 cm3.

•Represents only 2 per cent of body weight, but receives 15 per cent of the

cardiac output and consumes 20 per cent of total body oxygen.

•Utilizes up to 25 per cent of the energy used by the human body in the form ofglucose, more than any other organ.

•Contains 160,000 km of blood vessels.

•Consists of approximately 75 per cent water.

•Consists of about 100 billion neurons -same as the number of stars in our galaxy

-and anywhere from 1,000 to 10,000 synapses for each neuron. The cerebellum

contains half of all the neurons but comprises only 10 per cent of the brain.•There are no pain receptors in the brain, so the brain can feel no pain.

•The brain can stay alive for 4 to 6 minutes without oxygen

before cells begin to die.

BRAIN STRUTURE

The brain can be divided into the

-cerebrum

-brainstem

-cerebellum


5/13

Functions

Cerebrum

•initiation of movement, coordination of movement, temperature, touch, vision, hearing,

judgment, reasoning, problem solving, emotions, and learning.

Cerebellum

•coordinate voluntary muscle movements and to maintain posture, balance, and equilibrium

Brainstem (middle brain)

•movement of the eyes and mouth, relayingsensory messages (hot, pain, loud, etc.), hunger,

respirations, consciousness, cardiac function,

body temperature, involuntary muscle

movements, sneezing, coughing, vomiting,

and swallowing.

Brain consists of 4 sections (lobes):

Your brain's hemispheres are divided into four

lobes.

• The frontal lobes control thinking,planning, organizing, problem solving,

short-term memory and movement.

• The parietal lobes interpret sensoryinformation, such as taste, temperature

and touch.

• The occipital lobes process imagesfrom your eyes and link that information

with images stored in memory.

• The temporal lobes processinformation from your senses of smell,

taste and sound. They also play a role in

memory storage.

-The human brain is a remarkable organ. Every moment it takes in a massive amount of

information and organises it into patterns that we can recognize and understand.

-However, the brain can only process so much information at one time

-When we decide to focus on something, the brain automatically selects out information that

does not support that area of focus.


8/13

-We start seeing more of what we're looking for and less of what we aren't looking for.

-The danger comes when we start looking for the wrong things. If we look for

problems, we will find them!

-Conversely, if you start focusing on your goal

and vision, you will see every opportunity

that comes your way.

-On problems and you miss the opportunity.

On opportunity and the problems will vanish.

key to success

They key to success is to delete problems, not

solutions. That's why setting goals and having

a vision is so important

The human brain also has a tendency to

distort or exaggerate the truth to make the

good things better and the bad things worse.


11/13

Distortion is characterised by the use of

extreme words such as "never" or "always.“

-‘’That client never accepts my calls’’

-‘’I’ve always been rubbish at sales’’

-‘’Every time I call they are rude to me’’

-‘’No one is hiring at the moment’’


12/13

Generalise

-Generalisation is the process through whichour beliefs are formed. This is where we draw

global conclusions based on one, two or more

experiences.

-At its best, generalisation is one of the ways

that we learn, whereby we take the

information we have and draw broad

conclusions about the world based on one or

more experiences.

-At its worst, generalisation is how we take a

single event and make it into a lifetime of

experience. This is a common occurrence in

sales!
