...no there is not truth to it. Can you even explain what "using 10% of your brain" means? How do you think somebody measured this?

Asian cultures have been using pyrokinesis for hundreds of years, they use it to generate heat with what they call "Chakra" into their hands when using therapeutic back massages.

Thank you, sir.

...any sources?

I wouldn't be surprised if people can consciously warm their hands up, because there is a physical link between the brain, specifically the hypothalamus, and hands. People can learn to consciously control their heart rates, also.

However, creating heat at a distance is physically impossible. No, we don't know everything about how the brain works, but we do know the physics of it. Saying that, because we don't know some things about how various neural pathways in the brain work computationally, we could find some way of making fires appear a few feet away is like saying, because you don't know the exact layout of New York, if you go to New York you might find China there.

The main thing you need to ask yourself is, as there is no evidence that this phenomenon is possible (unless you can provide some), why do you think that it is? The only possible answer is bias. Ask yourself then why you are biased. There's no evidence that there's a teapot-shaped asteroid circling the sun; presumably you don't believe in that.
