“No matter your age, background, or level of education, you can learn new ways to use your brain.” – Jim Kwik. Today on the podcast Next Health welcomes Jim Kwik. Jim is the founder of Kwik Learning and a widely recognized world expert in speed-reading, memory improvement, brain performance, and accelerated learning. For over two decades, he has served as the brain coach to students, seniors, entrepreneurs, and educators, and as an advisor to many of the world’s leading CEOs and celebrities. However, growing up, Jim wasn’t always the super hero of brain strength that he is today. As a kid Jim had multiple brain injuries and was told by teachers and adults around him that he had a “broken brain”. In this episode you’ll hear Jim’s story on how he overcame the belief that he was broken and how he mastered the techniques to improve in brain performance.
Key Takeaway: Our potential is not fixed. We all have the capacity to increase brain strength and accelerate our learning.
