1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:05,600
Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on iHeartRadio.

2
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,720
Speaker 2: And welcome back to Coast to Coast. George Nori with you,

3
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 2: Jim Quick with us. His book is called Limitless, the

4
00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 2: Expanded Edition. Tell me about the title, Jim Limitless.

5
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, so Limitless is an owner's manual for our brain.

6
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 3: You know, our brain. You know, we're talking about space.

7
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,439
Speaker 3: This is the space I'm talking about is between our years.

8
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 3: You know, we upgrade, you know, think about technology and

9
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 3: you know, we have autonomous electric cars and spaceships that

10
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 3: are going to Mars or to vehicle choice. Often when

11
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 3: it comes to learning is like a horse and buggy,

12
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,040
Speaker 3: a horse and carriage. So Limitless, upgrade your brain, learning

13
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 3: thing faster. Our Lucker Exceptional Life. The expand Edition is

14
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,599
Speaker 3: really it's not about being perfect. It's about advancing and

15
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 3: progressing beyond what you currently believe is possible. Can we

16
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 3: discovered more about the human brain more in the past

17
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 3: twenty years and the previous two thousand years combined, and

18
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 3: we found as we're grossy underestimating our own capabilities, regardless

19
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 3: of your age, your background, your career, educational level, financial situation,

20
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 3: gender history, IQ you know it's so much more potential inside.

21
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 3: It's just we're not shown how to be able to

22
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,119
Speaker 3: access it. And that's that's why, that's why I wrote

23
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:15,680
Speaker 3: this book.

24
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 2: You talk about the seven lies of learning, Tell me

25
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 2: about that, then we'll get into these seven.

26
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 3: Sure, So a big part of what holds us back

27
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 3: is our mindset, you know, the set of assumptions and

28
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 3: attitudes about something. So you can someone learn a great

29
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 3: method on let's say, making money, but if their mindset is,

30
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 3: you know, I don't deserve it, or I have to

31
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 3: hurt people in order to be able to you know,

32
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,479
Speaker 3: access that, then you're probably still going to be stuck,

33
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 3: you know, in that area. So all behavior is belief driven.

34
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 3: And so for me, a lie and for a limited

35
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 3: idea entertained, it's not true. It's just something we're giving

36
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 3: energy to. So, you know, to be able to unlimit yourself,

37
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 3: you have to address these line like So, for example,

38
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 3: one of them is intelligence is fixed. Right, It's one

39
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 3: of those things where people believe that somehow your potential

40
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 3: is fixed or your memory is fixed, like your shoe size,

41
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,359
Speaker 3: and that's absolutely not true. But the problem is if

42
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 3: you believe it's true, you know, if you believe you

43
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 3: can or can't either way, You're right, right, Henry Ford

44
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,519
Speaker 3: said that. But the truth is it's not how smart

45
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 3: you are, it's how are you smart? There are multiple

46
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 3: types of intelligence. Howard Gardner, you know, talked about this,

47
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:36,519
Speaker 3: you know, researches at Harvard University. So like so many things,

48
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 3: intelligence is a combination of attitudes and actions, and it's

49
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 3: really dependent on contexts. You know. A better belief is

50
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,639
Speaker 3: that intelligence is fluid. You know, I talk about in

51
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 3: my work, we created a brain quiz at hundreds of

52
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 3: thousands of people have gone through that talks about four

53
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 3: different brain types, and I use it. I modeled it

54
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 3: after elephant like els, and some dolphins and owls and cheetahs.

55
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 3: It's just an illustration that, you know, we are smarter

56
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 3: than we think. Another another lie that some people believe

57
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 3: is that we only use ten percent of our brains.

58
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 4: And I hear that a lot.

59
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's something that we've all heard this myth. You know,

60
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,919
Speaker 3: some of us heard it the first time in the classroom,

61
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 3: some of us sort of from maybe a friend, some

62
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 3: sort of through media, maybe documentary and TV show. And

63
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 3: it's not true. In actuality, we use one hundred percent

64
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 3: of our brain, just like we use one hundred percent

65
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 3: of our body. Right, It's just some people use it differently,

66
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 3: you know, more effectively or more efficiently than others. So

67
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 3: the more the truth is, you know, is that you

68
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 3: have all the power of your brain. It's available to you,

69
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 3: and it's available to you now you know the utopia

70
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 3: that each of us, you know, in these movies and

71
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 3: television shows that depicts, it's already possible, you know, for us.

72
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 3: And while we use all our brains, some people use

73
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 3: their brain better than others, just says, you know, most

74
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 3: people one hundred percent of their body. You know, there

75
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 3: are somebodies that are faster, that are stronger, that are

76
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 3: more flexible, that are more energized than others. And the

77
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 3: key is to learn how to use your brain effectively efficiency,

78
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 3: you know, as possible as you can, right, And that

79
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 3: that's why I wrote the book. A new belief could

80
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 3: be instead of you know that you use ten percent,

81
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 3: is that I am learning how to use my whole

82
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 3: brain in the best ways possible. You know. Another lie

83
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 3: is mistakes are failures. You know. That's that's something I

84
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 3: think a lot of people unconsciously believe and you know,

85
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 3: it's my belief that that could hold you back because

86
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 3: you're not going to do things if you're scared of,

87
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 3: you know, making mistakes. I think we make mistakes. The

88
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 3: mistakes don't have to make us, you know, the mistakes,

89
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 3: you know, that's just nos. So there's no failure, there's

90
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 3: only failure to learn something.

91
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 2: As long as you learn from your mistakes, it's it's

92
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 2: worth it's worthwhile to try.

93
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I believe that, George. Just a lot of people think,

94
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 3: you know, failure is the opposite of success, you know,

95
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 3: and I think failure is part of success, right, you know,

96
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 3: and so like I feel like failure like getting the feedback,

97
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 3: feedback is the breakfast of champions, so you know, you know,

98
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 3: and it's it's interesting the children, Like we have a

99
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 3: newborn nine months and you know, he's like learning how

100
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 3: to crawl and help propping himself up. And you know,

101
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 3: if people fall, like children fall, they'll fall hundreds of

102
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 3: times and they always get back up. But sometimes as

103
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 3: adults where you know, we could try something, we'd take

104
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 3: a salsa class or a coding glass something, and we

105
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 3: don't do well at it the first time, which you

106
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,719
Speaker 3: know is normal and we just stopped right because we

107
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 3: don't want to look look bad. And so I think

108
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,279
Speaker 3: there's no such thing as failure, is only failure to

109
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 3: learn something.

110
00:05:58,480 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 1: You know.

111
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 3: In another lie that I think is pervasive in the

112
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 3: performance space or self improvement space is that knowledge is power.

113
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 3: Like we've all heard the phrase knowledge is power, and

114
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 3: I don't think it's really accurate. I think knowledge has

115
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,920
Speaker 3: the potential to be power. It only comes power when

116
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 3: you utilize it. So many people know stuff, but they're not,

117
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 3: you know, use utilizing that information. So I think knowledge

118
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 3: times action is power. And so you know, these kind

119
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 3: of lies, it's nice to make it more conscious as

120
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 3: opposed to unconscious, because in order to change anything, you

121
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 3: need a level of self awareness, right, you need to

122
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 3: be able. You can't change something unless you know that

123
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,359
Speaker 3: it needs to be changed and you recognize that. So

124
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 3: in the book we talk about some of the lives

125
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 3: of learning and then how to be able to reframe them,

126
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 3: and you know, to take care of your mindset. You know,

127
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 3: I believe your brain is this incredible supercomputer and your

128
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 3: self talk is a program and that will run. So

129
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 3: you tell yourself, I'm not good at I don't know

130
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 3: we're remembering people's names, you will not remember the name,

131
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 3: and the next person you meet program your supercomputer not

132
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 3: to people. Exactly. If people truly understand stood Georgia, like

133
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 3: how powerful their mind is, they probably wouldn't say or

134
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 3: think something they didn't want to be true. And that's

135
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 3: not to say that you have one negative thought and

136
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 3: ruins your life anymore than eating that donut ruin your life.

137
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 3: But if you hate that doughnut dozens of times in

138
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 3: a day, every single day, you know there will be

139
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 3: an effect. And so I just want to remind people

140
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 3: that your thoughts, your thoughts matter, and you don't have

141
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 3: to believe everything that you think.

142
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 4: Line number five is learning new things is very difficult.

143
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think some people stop. You know, the two

144
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 3: challenges is where people where we see and we have

145
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 3: students in every country in the world in our online

146
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 3: you know Accelebrated Learning Academy first Futerating Memory IM programs.

147
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 3: We see the biggest decline usually when people in their

148
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 3: covenant performance. When people graduate school, but somehow they associate that,

149
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 3: you know, their education is done so as their learning right,

150
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 3: they've learned everything that they need to learn. And then

151
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 3: when people retire, because often when people retire, they stop

152
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 3: using their brain, you know, actively, and unfortunately their bodies

153
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 3: usually aren't that far behind. So instead of believing that,

154
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 3: you know, learning new things is difficult, it can be.

155
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,839
Speaker 3: Certainly sometimes it's hard to learn new things, but that's

156
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 3: where you grow. Right when you're listing, if somebody's exercising,

157
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 3: it's the it's the novelty and the demand you have

158
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 3: on your muscles that force it to adapt. And same

159
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 3: thing with learning. You know, sometimes it is hard to

160
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 3: learn new things, but what's more accurate is to understand

161
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 3: that learning is a set of methods. It's a process,

162
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 3: and you can certainly do it easier once you know

163
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 3: how to learn right. My book Limitless They Expanded is

164
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 3: all about metal learning. Meta learning is the science and

165
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,559
Speaker 3: the art of learning how to learn. When you learn

166
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 3: new ways on how to learn the challenge of learning

167
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 3: new things, it actually could be fun. You actually get

168
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 3: easier and it's certainly more enjoyable. Line number six is

169
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 3: one talking about criticism, that the criticism of other people,

170
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 3: you know, matters, because people over index how important other

171
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 3: people's opinions are, you know. And I spent a lot

172
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,839
Speaker 3: of time at senior centers, maybe because I lost my

173
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 3: grandparents at an early age and I help them to

174
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 3: improve their memory, polish off their memory. And I also

175
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 3: hear some amaze so much, so many nuggets of wisdom

176
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 3: and insights. I also hear a lot of regret, you know,

177
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 3: And I just want to remind listeners that when we're

178
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 3: taking our final breaths, you know, in those moments, none

179
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 3: of them people's opinions or their expectations will have matter

180
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 3: to us. Well, what will mattered is you know, what

181
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 3: was most important. You know, maybe how you laughed and

182
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 3: how you learned, and how you loved and how you lived.

183
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 3: You know, I really think and you just to frame

184
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 3: it in a different way, you know, I don't think

185
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,960
Speaker 3: we should take criticism from people. We wouldn't take advice

186
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 3: from you know, maybe that could help reframe it for people.

187
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 3: You know. The new belief is something like, it's not

188
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:34,560
Speaker 3: your job to like, love or respect me. It's mine, right,

189
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,599
Speaker 3: And so, you know, I feel like a lot of

190
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 3: people are limited, They limit themselves because they're afraid of

191
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 3: what people will think, you know. So I just like

192
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:48,199
Speaker 3: to put some healthy dose of perspective there. And then

193
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,559
Speaker 3: the seventh lie is that This is something I think

194
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 3: a lot of people buy into, is that genius is born.

195
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 3: You know, you're either born with you know, genius, or

196
00:10:59,200 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 3: you're not.

197
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 4: Just developed, isn't it.

198
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I really think that genius is built, you know,

199
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 3: more and more than anything that genius leaves clues and

200
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 3: there's always a method behind what looks like magic. And

201
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 3: that's been the nature of my work. When I perform

202
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 3: in front of audiences, and I could be in front

203
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 3: of a quarter million people totally in a year. You know,

204
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 3: I travel a lot. I could be in three continents

205
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 3: in a week, and if there's time, I'll be these

206
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 3: demonstrations where I'll have like one hundred people stand up

207
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 3: in an audience and pass around a microphone and introduce

208
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,559
Speaker 3: themselves and I will recite all of their names from

209
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 3: memory that I do that, yeah, or an audience. You know,

210
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:45,199
Speaker 3: I just got out of a program at Google. I'm

211
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:49,199
Speaker 3: here in northern California right now, traveling on tour, and

212
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 3: you know, and I'll have they'll challenge me. They'll may

213
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 3: be fifty or one hundred digit number and I would

214
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 3: call them forwards and backwards or one hundred random words.

215
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 3: But I always tell people I don't do this to

216
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 3: impress you. I do this express to you what's possible,

217
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 3: because the truth is, again, we could all do this,

218
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 3: we just weren't taught. You know, there was no class

219
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 3: called memory. You know, they teach you three rs in

220
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 3: school reading, writing, arithmetics. But what about retention? Right Socrates?

221
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 3: Learning is remembering? And so you know, I feel like

222
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,439
Speaker 3: if you go to somebody and say, hey, play the ukulele,

223
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 3: you know that'd be ludicrous if people have never taken

224
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 3: a class well, going to somebody like a child or

225
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:34,319
Speaker 3: one of your coworkers and saying focus study, they've never

226
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,839
Speaker 3: taken classes on that. So I truly believe that genius

227
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 3: is not so much born, but it's built. It's made

228
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 3: through deep, deep practice like anything else.

229
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 2: And what about the possibility of brain foods? What are

230
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 2: some of the best.

231
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 3: You know, I think the whole area of science. I

232
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 3: do a whole chapter on the best foods you could

233
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 3: eat for your brain health.

234
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 4: You like guacamole, don't you?

235
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 3: I really do avocados, A monoon saturated fat is good

236
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 3: for the brain. This is a whole area of signs

237
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 3: called neuro nutrition. Some of my favorite ones I don't

238
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 3: give you everyone a memory eight on how to do this,

239
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 3: so we can make such. It's a little memory masterclass.

240
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,599
Speaker 3: So some of my favorites that are researched to be

241
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 3: neuroprotective Avocados, blueberries I have to call the brain berries.

242
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 3: You know, the antoxins are very good for your brain. Broccoli,

243
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 3: the sulfur fame in there is is very good for

244
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:34,079
Speaker 3: your brain. Number number fourth one is olive oil. You know,

245
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 3: we hear a lot about mediterrane diet. It's very narrow

246
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 3: protective if your diet allows. Eggs are like nature's multi vitamin.

247
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:46,199
Speaker 3: The coalen and eggs is very good for cognitive health

248
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 3: and performance. Green leafy vegetables like kalen spinach is good

249
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 3: for the brain. Your brain is mostly fat, so that's

250
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 3: where you get the omega three's or the dhas like

251
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 3: from fish. You always hear about eating uh, you know,

252
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 3: wild salmon or sardines, those are definitely brain foods. I

253
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 3: would add turmeric their curtains.

254
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 4: I take that every day every day, So good for.

255
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 3: You, George. It's it's anti inflammatory. Some people will take

256
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 3: the turmeric and mix it with some almond milk and

257
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 3: maybe a little bit of pepper and just make like

258
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 3: a like a like some kind of golden milk for themselves.

259
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 3: Walnuts are very good for the brain, high inviting and

260
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 3: eating or protective walnuts. Interesting, they look like a human brain.

261
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 4: They do.

262
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 3: You're you're right, Yeah, it's something like a little memory aid.

263
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 3: Like it's interesting. Certain foods support the organ that they

264
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 3: look like. If you cut a tomato in half, it

265
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 3: has four chambers, and tomatoes are good for the heart,

266
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 3: right if you and these are kind of not based.

267
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 3: These are more memory, uh, you know, kind of associations.

268
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 3: If you kind of carrot and it looks like the

269
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 3: human eye, and they say carrots are good for the eye,

270
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 3: and on so on. And then finally the tenth one

271
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 3: is dark chocolate, not milk, chocolate, not high sugar, but

272
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 3: dark chocolate is very good for the brain also as well.

273
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 3: What's good for your mood is generally good for your minds.

274
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 3: So you know, these are ten foods and you could

275
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 3: take a bunch of them even thrown into a blender

276
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 3: and make a brain power smoothie. You know, the avocados,

277
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 3: the green leavy vegetables, you know, chocolate powder, maybe you

278
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 3: know some berries. I probably wouldn't put.

279
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 4: The fish in there, not in the berries.

280
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you know, what you eat matters, especially for

281
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 3: your brain matter.

282
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 2: Before we had the internet going Jim, I had a

283
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 2: friend of mine who had a poor memory, and she

284
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 2: saw a television commercial for a kit which would improve

285
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 2: your memory, except she forgot the toll free number.

286
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

287
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 3: I believe too. The most coffee words sometimes in life

288
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 3: or in our work, or I forgot. If you think

289
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 3: about the consequences and saying I forgot to do it,

290
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:00,200
Speaker 3: I forgot to bring it, I've got what I'm going

291
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 3: to say, I forgot what they said, I forgot to

292
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 3: go to that meeting, I forgot that person's name. I mean,

293
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 3: just goes on and on. Every time we have those lapses,

294
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 3: we could lose time, we could you know, compromise of relationship.

295
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 3: But on the other side, memory can make you can

296
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 3: make you the money, certainly because the faster you can learn,

297
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 3: the faster you can earn. Because knowledge is the only power.

298
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 3: Knowledge is profit Today most people listening, it's not like

299
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 3: what's hundreds of years ago agricultural age or what work

300
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 3: on assembly lines, where it's more boot strength. Today it's

301
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 3: brain strength, right, It's not your muscle power. It's say

302
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 3: it's online power. And again, the faster you can learn,

303
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 3: the fast you can earn. If you can remember client

304
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 3: information or product information, can a speech without notes, learn

305
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 3: another language, improve your your vocabulary, remember what you read.

306
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 3: I mean, all of these are real assets. And again

307
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 3: it's everybody, regardless of your age and stage of life,

308
