    Despite the economy crisis, this is still a good time to invest in stock and crypto.

    “What you practice in private you are rewarded for in public” “How we do anything is how we do everything” “Leaders are readers” Kwik believes many people are depleted because they spend unnecessary amounts of energy by trying to hold themselves to an image/identity of their ideal self. Succesful people in all areas need a growth mindset. The heroes journey is knowing you will run into challenges and then you overcome them. Your brain is like a super computer and your self talk is a program that will run Keep your self talk empowering and positive Motivation and action If you visualize something in your head and your not acting - there’s an incongruency. The way Jim came through it was to think “What is my why?” Human potential ‘we underestimate’ We were told a lie that somehow our intelligence, learning, creative is fixed - In the past two decades we discovered in brain science more than in the previous 2000 years. What we found is that we highly underesteimate what humans are capable of. This is about transcending - the truth is we’re genius, we’re faster than we think. “What what man can do, anyone can do” Kwik and Gary V thinks self awareness is a superpower If you want to be an elite mental performer or a real life superhuman Guard the first hour of your day - no distractions. You train yourself to be active instead of reactive Habits and behavior change Behavior is belief driven Many people don’t read because they don’t value reading. If you want for instance a new habit of journaling - then you need a belief that allows that behavior exist. You can’t change your behavior if you don’t believe you're that kind of person. -> Expand your thinking, get references think BIG and grow RICH. Creating identity change - who do you believe you are The two most powerful words in the world is : I am Because whatever you put after determines your destination or destiny If you wanna understand high performers and successful people - copying a behavior simply doesn’t work - you need to really understand their beliefs and how they are thinking. -> who do they think they are that allows them to do and execute on these behaviors? A wise guy said : I don’t have problems. I have puzzles. ACT AS IF - TRAIN YOURSELF TO BE YOUR VISION Set up a winning environment that triggers the behavior you want. Are people setting up their environment to win? Many behaviors don’t stick. Therefore Kwik focus on areas such as : You want to trigger to remind you to do the new behavior. Geniuses set themselves up - environments, apps, effectively block distractions etc. Example : Having a computer for work - it’s anchored to put them into flow without being distracted. Having an iPad for play - it’s designed to make them relax. They use it specifically for different purposes. In other words - be extremely self-aware - know where and when you are motivated. Genius set up their environment to win Part of their success is because their not-to-do list is bigger than their to-do list. They know exactly what to avoid in order to excel in life. Kwik on Success rituals, high performers and making an impact We all have sovereignty within us - whenever we put it out we’re like a Are you a thermometer or a thermostat ? A thermometer just reflects what the environment is giving it - what is the temperature? A thermostat sets a standard - it dictates the temperature and impacts the room. Kwik believes our happiness, level of success is about transcending your uniqueness. He doesn’t look for perfection because he knows that state doesn’t exist.
  • I am watching this from my smartphone in third world...Somalia to be exact. So Inspired!! Thank you Tom.

    Jim's wordplay game is 100/100. There are creative mnemonics throughout this interview: "This is about transcending" --> Trance ending --> ending the trance of fixed self-worth "Through the challenge you get the change" -> all of the letters of the word "change" are found in the word "challenge" "How we do anything is how we do everything" -> How we do any thing is how we do every thing --> our approach to one thing affects our approach to every other thing we do "Leaders are Readers" --> memorable rhyming "Emotion" --> "E-Motion" --> "the energy of motion" --> Emotions are the fuel of action. Each mnemonic is a placeholder for a more complex idea. Lovely way to remember your core philosophy and support new patterns of self-talk. Excellent interview!

    I just turned 50 last month and have been feeling like a failure. Coming across this show at this time is a milestone to my life and a sign to me that the pain I've experienced in recent years has been worth the transformation to the best. This is no coincidence. Thank you Tom Bilyeu.

Thanks a ton Tom bilyeu and team for bringing Jim Kwik on the show... You are impacting others life in real sense.. All the best to your company and your Nobel cause.
  • I was in a huge rut last year and Jim Kwik's lessons helped me get out of it. I am working on a ton of exciting projects right now and I wouldn't be this far along without him. I'm excited to watch this! Top notch guest!
  • As someone who was diagnosed with ADHD, and was told that I had an IQ of 81, I am very inspired by this interview. Great information. I later took an IQ test, and my IQ was above average intelligence, so I believe the changes in my mind over the years, and constantly learning new life lessons, and having many different jobs really did affect my overall intelligence. Thank you.
  • @samyangaw

    Thank you Tom, I've recently discovered your show and it has been truly empowering to listen to your guests and your insight. I've always been a firm believer of the growth mindset and growing up, I was a victim of this 'cookie cutter' education system. I'm doing my best to expand my mind and work to fulfill my potential.
