#519: We sit down with Jim Kwik, a brain coach and expert in memory improvement, speed reading, and optimal learning.

As a child, Jim suffered a brain injury that made learning difficult. He was labeled "the boy with the broken brain," which deeply affected his confidence and performance in school.

He’s here to remind us that our brains are our number one wealth-building tool.

He talks to us about strategies for improving memory. He debunks myths like multitasking being efficient. He talks about the negative impact of digital distractions and the myth that we only use 10% of our brains. He describes a great brain diet, and discusses nootropics and other brain supplements.
