When I use my voice to tell my arm to rise above my head does not work but when I use thought to command my arm it does work. Why is that?

I spent time doing some serious research today.

    Do you have an accent of some kind?

    I have no accent, but something might be wrong with my arm's ability to hear.
    I could try talking louder. This post was edited by Kittigate at March 14, 2021 12:34 PM MDT

    Your arm is deaf but telepathic.

    Ok so that's why thought works and voice does not. Problem solved I guess.

    Just as well I suppose because I wonder how many different voice commands I would have to give all my moving body parts just to get out of bed and make coffee. This post was edited by Kittigate at March 14, 2021 12:34 PM MDT

    Sign language is another option.

    I experience the same kind of thing! Wow, this is a real eye-opener, because when my wife tells me to do something, it never gets done. But when I want to do something it always does.

    Right.. one must communicate by some means more subtle than voice communications; thought control.
