The 4 Ways To Change Your Brain, Body, Business (or Anything Else) with Jim Kwik

What are four choices you can make daily to change your brain, your body, and even your bank account? My book, Limitless, opens with a quote from a famous French philosopher that says, “Life is the C between B & D”. B is birth, D is death, and C—life—is choice. Every morning you have a chance and a choice to grow, make things better, and move in the direction to achieve everything you desire. On today’s episode, I’m going to go over four areas that you can focus on every single day to change the things you might not believe you have agency or control over. As I go through these areas, I want you commit to making a real choice by the end. There are a lot of areas in life that might feel like you don’t have influence over. But you do. You are the sum total of all the choices you’ve made in life—good, bad, or indifferent. If you’re ready to concentrate your efforts in specific, direct ways to unlock your limitless life, this episode is for you. ***If you’re inspired, I want to invite you to join me in my brand NEW 10-day course, specifically designed to boost your productivity.

Unlock And Boost Your Multiple Intelligences with Jim Kwik

How can you boost and unlock your multiple intelligences? There’s a common misunderstanding that there is one type of intelligence. Maybe you took a standardized test when you were in school, and that score was how you defined your IQ. But research shows that not only are there multiple types of intelligence, but it isn’t a fixed number either. I’m going to dive into this research on today’s show. Specifically, I’m going to go over Howard Gardner’s eight types of intelligences, plus a few extra, and some examples of how they might have developed or shaped your experiences of the world. I talk a lot about the importance of having a growth mindset and this is why. You can improve your intelligence, but you first have to believe it’s possible. Listen in, as I describe each of the eight types of intelligences and visualize each one to determine which type—or types—you connect with the most. ***If you’re inspired, I want to invite you to join me in my brand NEW 10-day course, specifically designed to boost your productivity.

Home Education Strategies For Raising Resilient Children with Katie Wells

How can you enhance your child’s education to meet the unknown demands of their future? In our rapidly changing world, it can be difficult to find education that will serve your children’s needs as they grow towards adulthood. Very few of the options take into account what children might encounter once they leave school. So, how do you find resources to develop your child’s ability to learn rapidly, adapt quickly, stay curious, and excel at problem solving? I’m excited to have Katie Wells on the show today. She’s Founder of Wellness Mama, mom of six, and a best-selling author. Her background in research, journalism, and nutrition has made her a powerful ally in education empowerment.

The Key To Long-Life Learning with Chip Conley

What are the keys to long-life learning? There’s a difference between being a life-long learner and long-life learner. How you learn at thirty years old is different from how you learn at sixty years old. As you age, your brain changes, which then transforms how you look at certain topics, what you want to learn about, and why you want to learn about them. To go deeper into this topic, I’m thrilled to have Chip Conley as our special guest today. Chip is the founder and CEO of Modern Elder Academy, which focuses on the value of intergenerational collaboration in companies. His latest book, Wisdom@Work: The Making of a Modern Elder, encourages people to rethink the value of having five generations contributing to the workspace. Long-life learning is the idea your thoughts are part of a holistic, systemic process that adapts as you age. Your focus and interests shift into seeking deeper meaning in the topics and subjects you study. Society tends to focus on how long you live. Listen in, as Chip explains why he believes the focus should be on depth and how you can become a long-life learner. ***If you’re inspired, I want to invite you to join me in my brand NEW 10-day course, specifically designed to boost your productivity.
