Train Your Brain to Master Focus, Learn Faster, Achieve Goals and Become Limitless!

One of the world’s leading experts in brain performance, mental fitness and memory improvement joins me on the show today. But, these credentials would have seemed downright impossible years ago. I say this because Jim Kwik experienced a severe childhood brain injury that left him with massive learning challenges so much so that he was told that he had a broken brain.

Jim refused to let that label define him and gravitated heavily towards comic books to inspire him to achieve the unthinkable, unimaginable and impossible. When Jim was a freshman in college an unsung hero came into his life to help guide him on the path of personal development, growth, and reading.

He then became enamored with teaching himself “how to learn” and the rest is history. Kwik then created strategies to dramatically enhance his cognitive performance and has since dedicated his life to helping others unleash their true genius and brainpower.

He is CEO of Kwik Learning, the premiere online accelerated learning academy with students in 195 countries. His clients include Google, Virgin, Nike, Zappos, SpaceX, Wordpress, Cleveland Clinic, Caltech, Harvard and Singularity University. Kwik is the author of the NY Times and #1 WSJ bestseller: “Limitless - Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, Unlock Your Exceptional Life.”

He is the host of the acclaimed “Kwik Brain” podcast, which is consistently the top educational training show on iTunes with tens of millions of downloads. Our mission today is to provide you actionable steps to help train your brain to master your focus (even during the tough times), cultivate purpose, learn faster, achieve your goals, and become limitless. This is an absolute masterclass and one that you will want to re-listen to over and over again.
