Limitless Book Intro
Our most precious gift is our brain.
It is what allows us to learn, love, think, create, and even to experience
joy. It is the gateway to our emotions, to our capacity for deeply
experiencing life, to our ability to have lasting intimacy. It allows us to
innovate, grow, and accomplish.
Yet few of us realize that, by applying a handful of practical methods, we
can enhance our brain and supercharge our ability to learn. Most of us know
that we can improve our cardiovascular health through exercise and diet,
but most of us do not realize that we can also greatly improve our brains,
and in doing so, our life.
Unfortunately, our world doesn’t foster a healthy environment for our
brain.
Before Jim Kwik provides a road map to become limitless, he indicts
the four growing villains that are challenging our capacity to think, focus,
learn, grow, and be fully human.
The first is digital deluge—the unending flood of information in a world
of finite time and unfair expectations that leads to overwhelm, anxiety, and
sleeplessness. Drowning in data and rapid change, we long for strategies
and tools to regain some semblance of productivity, performance, and peace
of mind.
The second villain is digital distraction. The fleeting ping of digital
dopamine pleasure replaces our ability to sustain the attention necessary for
deep relationship, deep learning, or deep work. I recently sat next to a
friend at a lecture and noticed her picking up her phone multiple times
within a few minutes. I asked for her phone and pulled up the screen time
app.
She had picked up her phone more than one thousand times and had
one thousand notifications in one day. Texts, social media notifications, emails, and news alerts, while important in context, can derail our
concentration and train us to be distracted from what matters most in the
moment.................
