#15 Jim Kwik – FAST Learning; The Science Behind Building Smarter Teams

December 02, 2015

Why You Should Listen?

As a Coach, we all want players who can memorize and execute their playbook under pressure situations.  As a player, we lose minutes sometimes because we do not know the playbook.

No one on Earth has a more powerful mind than the founder and CEO of Kwik Learning, Jim Kwik.  But don't take it from me, ask the founders of Google, Bill Gates, Bill Clinton and the hundreds of top leaders around the globe who have hired Jim to improve their mental abilities and memory.

Jim's story was powerful to me because as a child in first grade my parents were called into a meeting and told that I could not read and was a "slow learner".  I was placed in a Hooked on Phonics course and I'm telling you that label "slow learner" was in my head most of my life.  Jim Kwik was labeled "slow" as well after a childhood head injury.  He struggled in school just as I did. We shared the same pain.

My solution was dogged hard work to manage a 3.2 GPA through high school and college.  Jim's solution was to rewire his mind and "learn, how to learn."  Obsessed with comic books, he imagined himself as a Super Hero with fantastic mental abilities.  At some point, his imaginations became reality and now the top thinkers in the world hire Jim to teach them how to unlock the potential we all have in our "Super Hero Minds".

In this Podcast, Jim Kwik shares the secrets to his "powers" and how you can quickly empower your team to remember all the little things that make a BIG difference.  Imagine the confidence a coach has when he or she absolutely knows that the players can and will set up and execute plays at a higher level!  Our hope with this podcast is to make you a smarter coach, with a smarter team!
