Amazing book I learnt so much from this book. It taught me things I never knew about it's one book I can't just read once I have to read it again and again
This is totally crap work.total waste of time. He is marketer par excellence.just writes a book to promote his video. Ever paragraph has a reference of another book and author. .avoid.
I honestly cannot understand the hype behind this book. I found this in the bargain bin seeing the positive Amazon and Goodreads (usually much more stingy). It feels extremely Sales-pitchy and surface-level all throughout and I kept waiting for it to get better: it did not. Jim Kwik is an extremely accomplished and impressive man (clearly) but this particular book did not do it for me. The writing itself was also very “white bread” and lacking in sophistication although I have to acknowledge tha...

If you can skip around some (ok, I think it's a little more than "some") fillers, this book is ok. There are several really useful memory techniques which I'll put into practice. And I'll never forget, without using those techniques, that reading Jim's childhood story is really touching and inspiring.
I am not being totally fair with three stars, I kind of speed read through the whole book and might have missed important information, but it is mostly a recollection of Kwik's online content, YouTube and Podcasts. There is little new information, just some extra advice in tips and some changes in acronyms. Anyway I believe Jim is one of the best mind coaches out there, his message is clear as well as the results. I'm just saying that the book is quite repetitive if you already follow Jim and ot...
By constantly comparing, many people mistakenly think that others are fundamentally smarter or more talented. Frustration about this keeps us from reaching our own full potential.
