How to be LIMITLESS with Jim Kwik Jul 20, 2020

Show notes

Jim Kwik returns to talk to Jeannie Mai and her fam about the limits that we place on ourselves and how we can address them with action! Jim breaks down what he calls his "limitless model" that he's detailed in his new book, Limitless, which not only focuses on accelerated learning, but "why we are where we are as individuals and as a collective." Jim and Jeannie discuss why removing our self-imposed limitations during these difficult times is so crucial and how we are in control of the story we want to be told about not just our outer world during this time, but our inner world as well.
