Jim Kwik: The Secrets to Learning Faster
At the age of 5, Jim Kwik got into a bad accident that left him with a traumatic brain injury and learning challenges. It was hard for him to focus, hard to memorize things, and hard to read. His teachers had to repeat things to him numerous times before he caught on. His troubles continued until he was 18 when he fell down a flight of stairs and hit his head again.
When he woke up in the hospital, it dawned on him that schools teach us what to learn and what to remember, but they don’t teach us how to learn.
He thought there has to be a better way and became determined to learn more about how the brain works so he could improve his ability to learn and boost his memory. Jim made such a dramatic turnaround that he has become widely recognized as a world expert in speed reading, memory improvement, brain performance, and accelerated learning. He took all the tools he discovered and started the company Kwik Learning, which helps others take advantage of the strategies he discovered.
