I was napping w youtube on autoplay. I had no idea what I was hearing as I woke, but it was the best thing I could have woken up to. Perfect kind of message I needed right now. Thank you both! I now have a whole new set of videos to listen to as I go back into the painting studio.
I am listening to the intro and it makes me want to cry. I can relate to the pain. I need this so much. I dont want to die without doing something to improve me. ❤️
My favorite aha Moment is when they talk about pay traumatic stress being real but so is post traumatic growth! There are so many things that I've gone through that I would never wish on my worst enemy if I had one, that have transformed me into the beautiful and empathic person I am today.. Thank you for what you do and who you are.
Listened to this 3 times at work today. Had never been exposed to Mr. Kwik’s genius or his story. But it’s inspired me to start a routine every morning beyond waking up and dragging myself to work and truly opened my eyes to many profound concepts about my true potential.
This is an amazing podcast, I have already listen to it twice. And I took 2 pages of notes. Jim Kwik has a great story and I love listening to his skills and knowledge. Thanks Tom Ferry for this episode.
What a great conversation, and how inspiring is Jim? Amazing voice, story, person. The kid with the broken brain - Dang, that's a hard story to get over. I love that he's paying it forward...
Amazing thank you Tom & Mr. Kwik! I love the food list and the tips and tricks and congratulations to your successes! SO INSPIRING!! Peace love & Happiness
"Killing ANT Automatic Negative Thoughts and the quote people may not remember what you said or did but the will remember how you made them feel." Thank you Jim and Tom.
This is awesome Tom I'm so pumped that you got Jim on here! He opens your mind to things you never thought were possible. Ever since his interview with Ed Mylett I've been hooked!
Developing the will to open up my figurative heart will provide plenty of educational opportunities to gain more insight, wisdom and understanding for daily use. The figurative heart is made of thoughts, feelings, and desires to share with others. On many levels of heartfelt expression that is priceless.
I have shared this video with so many people, and now I am watching it a 3rd time. I am downloading the audio book today! I want to use my time better and feel I am pushing myself to my limits or my limitless potential!

I'm so grateful for this podcast and the messages in it. Thank you to you both so much. There is a reason I came across this today to invest this time🙏
I couldn't stop watching till the end, had to keep going back a little just to write it all down. I have pages of notes and now its all being applied to my life and shared as everyone needs this. Life changing for me so Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
First time listener here Tom. Wow! This was perfect timing for me as I was sitting in limbo not asking myself the right questions. I actually asked the universe ... Let me find something on RUclips that will kick me out if limbo... And this video came up. I have renewed energy and motivation. Thank you🌺
Wow. He said 1 nugget. The only 1 I have is the 1% of the me who clicked this link 90min ago the other 99% is now the me on the Kwik path. God bless you both. From someone who needed this, my family thanks you
Omg! This just bright back childhood fears of those damn reading circles!!! I used to FREAK when I was called on and I would stumble all the time. Thanks for sharing!
Exceptional! Thank you, I've been diving deep into the new knowledge of brain elasticity, brain food, mindfulness, energy centers, importance of thought, feeling and doing but loved hearing about the concept/field of "meta learning" - new to me. The conversational delivery and personal connection is cementing my personal commitment to address both movement/exercise & sleep. I am going to listen again, because I listened on my phone, not sleeping, no pen in hand 🙂 I'm en route but clearly must have all the puzzle pieces working and this talk has put me at the starting line posed to push off and Go!
Watching this 3 years from the making! and it is a blessing, so much information. I have been following Jim Kwik for a while now and most recently Tom and finding both of you on the same Podcast is incredible. Took lots of notes and I will be implementing them. Thank you again.
I am very grateful that the most high 🤲🏿 blessed me to come across this podcast with both of these extraordinary guys. I feel the same way Jim did when he was little due to an abusive upbringing, so I struggled with learning and still do. I am going to utilize all his resources to improve my lack of . Thanks again for this sharing of information.
I read this book about 6 months ago and I have really sat with it for a while. It has started to make a huge impact on my current way of thinking and it reminds me so much of the beginning of your story. Thanks for sharing your gift and knowledge!
Late to this, yet I have found that your efforts to pay things forward are actually of value. These two hours are nuggets of Mnemonics ... shorthand to knowledge that will help anyone if actually used. And it was free to me to hear. It will cost me effort to incorporate if I actually choose to dip my mind into the pool of knowledge, actually to guzzle it would be better. Thank you and God speed! The M.O.M. structure is priceless in and of itself.
This strategy can be applied in various ways and aspects of life. It doesn't matter what kind of industry you belong to or age category you are in. This is powerful if mastered. Thank you, Jim! 🔥🔥
20:32 Knowledge is a resource. Our ability to understand what we read, infer and interpret our experiences is our intellectual ability. Our minds having the "ability to learn" (identify and interpret), recall and innovate is a powerful feature. From birth to adulthood we acknowledge, become aware of and realize our potential or don't. Our knowledge becomes valuable and useful on a need-to-know, case-by-case basis. How well we perform cognitively indicates the quality and condition of our mental development or well-being (emotional sensory). Whether we are suffering from mental illness or brain damage. Our mental performance is also assessed by how well we speak and communicate, a result of how well educated we are. That is determined by our willingness to invest our time and attention to concentrate on learning. Unfortunately, we live in an age of self-distraction, seeking immediate touch screen gratification. Becoming more self-aware and mindful in the present moment has become very popular.
Thank you so much for taking time and sharing life changing lesson I just listened till the end and learned so much omg wish I had a friend or family member who is genius so I can learn from them but here I am listening to RUclips thanks for sharing and making the planet a better place 🙏
Love this! Have researched to develop a process to help small businesses Increase Time's Value and have found most of the context in this podcast but still found few new things. Always learning! Always believing we can do better!
Anyone else consider Jim Kwik as their own superhero? Because i do as he literally change my life! Hi Jim, i cant wait to meet you soon and thank you personally! 🥰
It does not enter in people's minds that we do not live that long. Even in hundred years not only our loved ones but the ones we do not like much will be dead. I know this sounds grimm but it is good to get in touch with reality.
Thank you so much! The Powers of the Brain. & 5 Fundamental Questions are so powerful! Motivated me to speak to myself with love and compassion and carry myself with more care. Thank you!
I am so happy to realize at 83 that I can still add to the years that I have left to fulfill my purpose. Thank You. I am so happy and filled with Gratitude. Norma.
Jim, I really believe that as a child you were mostly distracted by deep scattered thinking, what I believe the brain does to recognize universal broad scope patterns. Of which it seems that you have accomplished. Focused thinking or studying the basics on an elementary level feels like asking your brain to be concerned with the bark on a tree when your mind is eager to grasp and appreciate the tree as a whole, the big picture. I had this problem and was able to gain a sense of orientation when I discovered the importance of context and purpose. Only then true meaning can be recognized and one thing leads to another and eventually, we clarify the use-value of your study material. I didn't go to college because I didn't believe in myself, so I am self-taught and I can't seem to stop learning, I enjoy it.
What he does is incredible, but the question is who else can do like Jim Kwik regarding the memorization? if there is no one else who can emulate him, then it infers that the brain damage he had when he was 5 years old might have reconfigurated his brain in such a way that it helped him to retain information far more quicker than any normal person. In fact, he gained a superpower of memory.
You completely missed his point. If he can do it, so can you. There are actual memory championships each year with tons of people who have similar/better memorization abilities.
Thank you very much for this wonderful edifying Brain Tutorials I accidentally bumped in to it I wish I can have more of it if I know how to connect you to student who is suffering from memory difficulty and learning that will be God send thank you Remain blest Jim.
You are just finishing your talk and Jim notes exactly what I learned in my first corporate position Chase Econometrics, just out of graduate school. We dealt with statistics, forecasting, analysis before PC's. My niche was with housing, demographics, construction info etc and I worked for Michael Carliner, prior partner in a separate company newly acquired specifically for their expertise in this area. With that expertise was also a proprietary computer language Michael had to teach me. New to the general group we worked amongst, I was aware of being doubted, especially by one colleague in a position a title below mine. When Michael arranged for me to teach this language - rather complex and atypical to others in use at the time - I wasn't sure I'd really gotten it down yet and questioned his reasoning. He told me 'the best way to secure one's knowledge of what they've been taught/learned is to teach it to others.' Spot on!! It worked and, fortunately, I won over the respect of the doubters. Interestingly I hadn't thought about this for eons but just this week suggested the same strategy to one of 3 teen siblings who live in my building. Synchronicity 🤩
I really love to stick with you and part of my routine watching you! I'm so grateful you did this podcast i can watch and learn with no cost. Camille here, from Philippines. Hungry to learn and follow the good path towards success,, financially, relationships, family and life😊😊
I have completed a 4.5 years of Osteopathic education. Pandemic came and fear set in . Final exams were canceled. I stoped studying for them not knowing when will they be done. Last min the exams were reinstated. I didn't go because I didn't feel I'm ready . A year and a half later I'm not any more ready, contrary, I forgot a lot what I learned . The school was challenging for me . I somewhat dispused it at the end so once I had a chance not going back to it I felt uplifted, free. I'm trying to start studying but not being consistent. I'm frustrated about my own behaviour.
This is a great episode. Learned a lot from this. Hope I heard this episode two years ago. It’s motivated. FAST is planted ever since I heard it and will be in my mind forever. Thank you for the time and effort spent on this.
Alot of stuff we didn't need but thanks i don't know if I'll actually grasp anything when you have a million side quest and bouncing around wise quotes and the story

Applying what we have earned is the way to study something.
-How can I use this
-Why must I use this
-When will I use this
Boosting brain faculty
-Brain diet;
Avocado, blueberry, broccoli, egg, aloe, tomato, walnut, almond, carrot, chocolate
-Movement;
ex) forming morning routine to drink water when we wake up, pomodoro studing, etc
-Being cautious for people around us;
We cannot help but getting affected from surrounding people; put someone happy and being grateful for everything rather than complaining around you
-Sleep;
Not only good for long-term memory, but the dreams we have during sleeping are crucial factor in creativity
Ran across this video on accident and ended up taking 3 pages of Notes! Thank You! Now to the hard part, applying all that I learned.

The conversational delivery and personal connection is cementing my personal commitment to address both movement/exercise & sleep.
I am going to listen again, because I listened on my phone, not sleeping, no pen in hand 🙂
I'm en route but clearly must have all the puzzle pieces working and this talk has put me at the starting line posed to push off and Go!

Thank u thank u and thank u, what a blessing to hear such a powerful message to us all. Indeed we r here to transcend and access our power
Superb interview Gentlemen!!
Jim, I really believe that as a child you were mostly distracted by deep scattered thinking, what I believe the brain does to recognize universal broad scope patterns. Of which it seems that you have accomplished. Focused thinking or studying the basics on an elementary level feels like asking your brain to be concerned with the bark on a tree when your mind is eager to grasp and appreciate the tree as a whole, the big picture. I had this problem and was able to gain a sense of orientation when I discovered the importance of context and purpose. Only then true meaning can be recognized and one thing leads to another and eventually, we clarify the use-value of your study material. I didn't go to college because I didn't believe in myself, so I am self-taught and I can't seem to stop learning, I enjoy it.
I have so much respect for Tom.
So, so good.
What he does is incredible, but the question is who else can do like Jim Kwik regarding the memorization? if there is no one else who can emulate him, then it infers that the brain damage he had when he was 5 years old might have reconfigurated his brain in such a way that it helped him to retain information far more quicker than any normal person. In fact, he gained a superpower of memory.
You completely missed his point. If he can do it, so can you.
There are actual memory championships each year with tons of people who have similar/better memorization abilities.

You are just finishing your talk and Jim notes exactly what I learned in my first corporate position Chase Econometrics, just out of graduate school. We dealt with statistics, forecasting, analysis before PC's. My niche was with housing, demographics, construction info etc and I worked for Michael Carliner, prior partner in a separate company newly acquired specifically for their expertise in this area. With that expertise was also a proprietary computer language Michael had to teach me.
New to the general group we worked amongst, I was aware of being doubted, especially by one colleague in a position a title below mine.

I have completed a 4.5 years of Osteopathic education. Pandemic came and fear set in . Final exams were canceled. I stoped studying for them not knowing when will they be done. Last min the exams were reinstated. I didn't go because I didn't feel I'm ready . A year and a half later I'm not any more ready, contrary, I forgot a lot what I learned . The school was challenging for me . I somewhat dispused it at the end so once I had a chance not going back to it I felt uplifted, free.
I'm trying to start studying but not being consistent. I'm frustrated about my own behaviour.
This is a great episode. Learned a lot from this. Hope I heard this episode two years ago. It’s motivated. FAST is planted ever since I heard it and will be in my mind forever. Thank you for the time and effort spent on this.
You guys ROCK!!!
Alot of stuff we didn't need but thanks i don't know if I'll actually grasp anything when you have a million side quest and bouncing around wise quotes and the story
Currently am hr in and learning , took me hitting the 25 min 5 min break sauce to like it but I still wish it was less fluff
Will buy these brain foods tomorrow, and visualize a picture to remember people's names.
