Ep. 64: Physical Skill Development & Improving Your Reflexes w/ Guinness Record Holder Dan Holzman

Apr 12, 2016

My guest today has a ton of impressive credentials. He’s met presidents. He’s set multiple Guinness world records. He’s spoken on stage at TED 6 times. He’s worked with Robin Williams for years. He’s an entrepreneur.

So far, he sounds like just another in a long line of high-caliber folks we invite on this show.

My guest today, Dan Holzman, has attained all of this incredible success by building a career around - get this - comedy juggling.

Now I know what you’re thinking. What the hell does juggling have to do with being SuperHuman?

Well, as my guest explained to me when we spoke, juggling is actually a pretty amazing activity that has been proven to promote brain fitness, dexterity, concentration, and do a whole lot of other incredible things.

For this reason, I invited today’s guest on the show not so much to talk about juggling per se, but rather to talk about the learning process behind mastering such an incredibly complex yet rewarding skill.

In the episode, you’re going to learn a LOT. And be inspired. A LOT. Of course, we’re going to talk about juggling - and learn why it’s such a surprisingly powerful tool for self improvement. But beyond that, we’re going to talk about accelerated learning. We’re going to talk about what it takes to become a renaissance man or woman. We’re going to talk about passion, success, and finding your life’s calling. And so, so much more. This episode really runs the gamut, and has something for everyone, so I just know you’re going to enjoy it.
