Yes, imagine a lot (but not all) of who we are today is our memories and experiences of life to date - that would all be held in our brain.
Outside that, there is our inherent strenghts and weaknesses as a person, both physical and mental. Does our brain have total control over these areas? I dont know?
If you have great hand-to-eye coordination, for example, how much of that is down to physical ability and how much mental agility? Dont know.
great question to ponder though
