'You only use 10% of your brain' is only referring to the physical areas of your brain. Which is not true, because we have scans that can show that we use all areas of the brain.
I always thought that saying was referring to how we only use 10% of our brains potential.
That's how it's been used a lot. By people who want to sell you something promising to increase your potential.
But in reality, we only use 10% of our brain in the same way a traffic light only uses 1/3 of its lamps.
