Overstimulation Is RUINING Your Life - Daily Habits To Take Back Control Of Your Focus! | Jim Kwik 

"There's a version of yourself that is patiently waiting, and the goal is to show up every single day until you are introduced."

Exercise your mind by reading Exercise your body by moving GREAT ADVICE!

I can feel my attention span shortening year after year, it's actually insane. I bet most of us can't even go to the bathroom without our phone.

I stopped social media 2 years ago. I spend time every morning reading, praying and Journaling. I work out 5 days a week. I cut back on alcohol. I am careful with what "junk food" is going into my mind. I also do a lot of creative hobbies or things that help settle the mind such as diamond art, puzzles, reading books, painting, strategic board games. Go explore a new hobby. Take a class. Learn something new! I always encourage people to ask themselves "what value does this add to my life?" Creating good healthy habits for mind, body, soul is important. My hope is that my children see HOW I live, not just what I preach. If you're reading this, try just implementing one healthy habit and each week add something else while eliminating the unhealthy habits. You can do it!!!!

"When you're taking your final breaths, nobody else's opinions or expectations or fears will matter, it's how you lived, learned, laughed and loved. " That's a strong comment.

His last sentence "There is a version of yourself that's patiently waiting" :')

Let me share something.....I have sat on my bed and watched intently, listened actively and implementing right now.......I have never once watched a 1 hour video in 1 succession....today I have watched this show 2.5 hours a long without moving off my bed....my motivation is to become better....my belief is I can and I will and my method is to do stop thinking about it and start doing. Thankyou so much for all your energy and time and wisdom.....I'm improving my life now.......

Recap by Tammy AI

Quit social media 3 years ago. Finally convinced my wife to do the same. She thought it would be a struggle, but she thankfully doesn’t miss it

We are overloaded for sure with information. Last Sunday I left my phone in the house and sat on my deck for two hours. I just listened to the birds, watched the deer and petted my dog. It was liberating. I am purposely setting my phone somewhere where I really have to make an effort to go get it, instead of keeping it in my pocket. I grew up with landlines and no answering machine. The world did not end if I missed something.

One of the biggest problems in this digital age is that there is too much information that is easily accessible, and it is very easy to become overwhelmed (paralysis by analysis). Its like the person who is always researching about the best workout, outfit, exercise splits, diet, etc and haven’t even bothered to walk a mile. Start where you are!

“I don’t have any problems, I have puzzles.” The attitude I am taking to a recently diagnosed terminal health condition. 💖

I stopped watching "the news" two years ago. The best decision i ever made. No socia media, no mainstream news. bliss.

"There's a version of yourself that's patiently waiting and the goal is you show up every single day until you're introduced." Wow! Jim Kwik's last line made me so emotional, it brought tears in my eyes. For 2 years now I've been struggling to grow and become the best version of myself but it's incredibly so difficult. I'm truly struggling to change even the basic or the easiest habits like sleeping on time and waking up early. Even just exercising is frustratingly difficult to achieve. This podcast is truly inspiring and encouraging. Thank you!

I was feeling so uncomfortable with how my life was going. I have a phone addiction but I realized that I used it for comfort so that I don’t feel as lonely. You know the feeling of being around people and still feeling alone? Thank you for this video, it helped answering many of my concerns. I will be separating myself from my phone and healing my inner child trauma.

Last year I was working full time budgeting groceries, unable to afford date nights, and missing time with my kids. Now I learn how to make money online. Now I'm a SAHM, homeschooling and making profits every week.

I am so lucky and proud to be born and studied in Babylon ( Iraq). We are still practicing getting up early with the sun rise and sleep with sun set . The guest is great he is well read .Philosophy is a very important part of learning and understanding life.

I don't know if you are familiar with the youth organization 4-H that has been around in rural communities for over 100 years. The founder A. B. Graham named the club for the four H's "Head, Heart, Hands, and Health." The club promise is "I pledge my head to clearer thinking, my heart to greater loyalty, my hands to larger service, and my health to better living, for my club, my community, my country, and my world." This popped to my mind when you mentioned three of these 4 H's of areas focus. Love everything you presented here. Thank you!!!

It's difficult to not get overstimulated when your in the office with other people talking 5 days a week and then get home and hear your neighbors quite a big part of the evening >.> Seriously, active noise cancel headphones are the true saviors of sanity nowadays!

This was so much fun! Loved also having you on our podcast! Limitless appreciation to everyone for watching this! 🧠

52:30 I love that he's quoting Captain Jack Sparrow! “The problem is not the problem. The problem is your attitude about the problem.”

I love how your wife set that boundary about not consuming negative information. Very healthy!

Becoming a mother and raising a 4 year old has made me way less active on my phone. I don’t do morning scrolls or unlimited screen time. I just use my phone when I need to text or call and basically that’s it… when I drive I like to listen to videos such as this. Honestly having kids slows you down in the best way possible. For a while when my daughter was young I was pretty addicted to Instagram, & I regret that so much I wish I could go back. Now I try to give her all of me and my phone stays in the room. I recently deleted Instagram and it’s so nice without the distraction. I don’t bring it out unless I need to look at a cooking recipe. I just realized in this day and age parenting is different. I was born in 1997 so all that technology and distraction is constantly around me now as an adult and I don’t want my daughter to experience that.

I turn off most of my notifications on my phone and life is so much more peaceful that way 😊 And I'm a Realtor, Facebook listing comment notifications became too much.

Fun fact: when you exceed 99 tabs in chrome, instead of saying "100" "101" it just says ":D" lol "digital deluge" is so real for me. As a student of life with ADHD, i have 100s of tabs open at one time. I started doing vocabulary word of the day with my son, to apply what i was learning in real life. I find so many subject/topics intriguing but i lack the focus & concentration to follow through/finish researching and/or absord it completely.

For me reading content became writing content . A three step process 1. Start Small 2. Grow Big 3. Deep Dig Doing writing development for thirty minutes. Start Middle Range sixty minutes. High Range Ninety minutes. Victorious work mode One hundred and twenty minutes Time lines on average for a enjoyable work mindset.

This was a great podcast. I'm a 64 years-old female. I do exercises everyday including yoga on Saturdays and Sundays. I try my best to eat healthy, making sure that I take my supplements. I walk more than 10,000 steps daily. However, these postmenopausal years are horrible when it comes to sleep, motivation and attention span. Due to hormonal changes, of course. I haven't be able to finish a book in years. That's why I don't buy books anymore. Having sleep apnea does not help either. I would love to listen to a similar podcast, focus on postmenopausal women. Thank you.

The biggest culprit is the internet. The internet is SO stimulating. Have a whole month without screens and see what happens, you’ll be so much happier

Do less better Consume less Take action now ~ if you practice these three principles I guarantee your life will improve enormously

I was keeping my memory loss to myself worried that it was an issue with me/age but now I'm casuslly dropping it into conversations and all of my friends are saying theyre the same!

"How we feel is often downstream from what we consume" - good point

I listened for 20 minutes, paused the video, grabbed my journal and a pen, started the video again and took copious notes!! The wisdom flowing from this man was incredible and he spoke with such gentleness and kindness and wisdom that I just had to record all the things that stood out to me! 10 pages of notes later!!! Now to actually ACT on this wisdom and use it to make my world a better place!! Wow! ❤❤

Dr. Rang, warmest congratulations on your well-deserved professorship at Essex University!

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 🧠 Many people today struggle with focus and memory due to the distraction and overstimulation caused by technology. 07:36 🌡️ Metaphorically suggests that we should act like a thermostat rather than a thermometer, meaning we should influence our environment rather than merely reacting to it. 10:21 🌳 Incorporating elements from nature, like sunlight or grounding exercises, can be a natural and effective way to boost brain health. This approach also emphasizes the importance of hydration and breath control for optimal performance. 12:00 💧 Staying hydrated can boost reaction time and thinking speed by up to 30%, emphasizing the importance of regular water intake. 14:31 🎯 By visualizing the end of a successful day, we can determine what needs to be done and how we should behave to make it a reality. 16:09 🔄 Success often follows the pattern of being, doing, and then having. By becoming the person who can do the necessary actions, we can achieve what we want. This approach suggests that success is more sustainable when our actions align with our identity. 18:55 ➡️ Encourage turning nouns into verbs in our life. This implies turning passive aspects (like memory, motivation, focus) into active processes we can control. 21:09 🔄 Behaviour is belief driven. It is crucial to understand our internal beliefs to drive changes in our behaviours. 25:13 🧠 Our brain is like a supercomputer and our self-talk and beliefs are the programs it will run. We should avoid telling ourselves negative things that we don't want to become true. 26:21 📖 Jim Kwik's book "Limitless" encourages readers to advance beyond their perceived limitations. 28:55 🔄 Consistent action is a true indicator of commitment. 29:36 💡 Our mindsets and assumptions about life aspects such as health, wealth, and relationships can limit us. 35:09 🤔 The speaker warns against sticking to a victim mentality, which often leads to self-limiting beliefs and prevents personal growth. 36:06 💭 Talks about the danger of repetitive negative thought patterns, leading to a feedback loop of negative experiences. 38:26 👣 Speaks about the importance of believing in one's ability to instigate change, regardless of the challenges faced in life. 39:07 🌟 Shares inspiring stories of Auschwitz survivors who maintained an empowering mindset amidst unimaginable circumstances. 42:10 🌍 Recalls the story of a woman who survived the Rwandan genocide by hiding in a bathroom, illustrating the power of resilience and forgiveness. 43:45 📚 Discusses the book "Left To Tell" by the Rwandan genocide survivor, emphasizing the significance of stories in human resilience and recovery. 48:53 👀 Explanation of the mind's algorithm: whatever you engage with, you get more of, emphasizing the need to stand guard over our minds and what we let in. 50:59 🧩 Quincy Jones' mindset of viewing problems as puzzles, a shift in perspective that leads to more constructive problem-solving. 52:09 🌐 Importance of changing your point of view by traveling, meeting different people, and experiencing different cultures to enrich your perspective. 52:23 💡 The problems we perceive often stem from our attitudes and assumptions about the problem itself rather than the actual problem. 52:50 🧠 Mindset and belief systems play a crucial role in our actions and decisions, potentially leading to self-sabotage if they are negative or limiting. 54:30 🎲 Motivation is needed to apply methods and change mindsets to break free from limiting boxes. 55:10 ⏭️ Limitless motivation can be achieved through the formula P (Purpose) x E x S3. 57:58 🚀 Understanding and acknowledging one's purpose can exponentially improve the ability to learn and grow. 01:00:05 🔄 A story of personal transformation highlights the power of purpose and mindset in driving significant life changes. 01:00:33 🎯 Jim Kwik emphasizes the importance of starting with a purpose. Without a purpose, you won't retain the information you consume. 01:03:31 🍽️ Your lifestyle behaviors can significantly affect your energy level. Overeating or eating unhealthy food can leave you in a food coma, hindering your motivation to act on your purpose. 01:04:15 🧠 Brain health is essential, and it can be influenced by various factors like sleep, diet, and managing stress. Neglecting these factors can lead to exhaustion and lack of motivation. 01:05:51 📖 Breaking down your reading into smaller sessions makes it manageable. For the average reader, 45 minutes a day should suffice to finish a book in a week. 01:06:32 💪 Overcoming difficulties requires taking the tiniest action possible towards your goal, an action so small that you can't fail. 01:08:10 😨 When people feel fear, they typically look for safety rather than trying to grow due to uncertainty. 01:08:25 🔍 Instead of downgrading dreams to meet current situations, consider upgrading your mindset, motivation, and methods to meet those dreams. 01:09:35 🌅 A morning routine can include mindfulness, movement, and mindset work to start the day positively. 01:10:04 📖 Reading something uplifting or thought-provoking in the morning can help set a positive tone for the day. 01:10:33 📚 Keep inspiring books around to make it easier to pick up a good read without overthinking. 01:14:15 📉 Many people claim they can't read books anymore due to a lack of attention span, which may be due to technology-induced distraction. 01:16:22 🔄 Simple activities, like brushing your teeth with the opposite hand, can increase mindfulness and serve as "gateway habits". 01:16:36 🍽️ Not only is it important what we eat, but also how we eat. Being present during meals allows for better digestion. 01:21:15 🏆 Reflecting on the day like an athlete with a coach can lead to improved performance in various areas of life. 01:23:01 🖊️ Handwriting notes is often more effective for comprehension and retention than typing. 01:25:22 📖 Emphasizes the importance of purposeful reading as a mental exercise. 01:27:57 📅 Scheduling time for your personal growth activities, like reading or working out, is crucial. If you don't schedule them, they might not get done. 01:33:17 🎬 Sharing an anecdote about actor Will Smith, Jim Kwik emphasizes how Smith's dominant question, "how do I make this moment even more magical," is manifested in his actions. 01:34:43 ✨ For Jim Kwik, his dominant question was, "how do I make this better," which he found to be an empowering question that helped him take action to improve situations. 01:35:25 ❓ Jim Kwik suggests three key questions to ask when learning something new: "how can I use this," "why must I use this," and "when will I use this." 01:37:34 📅 To ensure the utilization of knowledge, it's essential to schedule when you will apply what you've learned. 01:37:47 📚 Reading can be made more effective by asking the right questions beforehand. 01:43:15 ❓ He also highlights the importance of asking questions while reading to prevent memory loss and enhance comprehension. 01:45:18 👆 Kwik suggests the use of a visual Pacer (like a finger or a pen) while reading. This helps increase the reading speed significantly. 01:46:40 👀 Kwik explains the reasoning behind using a visual Pacer while reading: it's a natural practice observed in children which enhances focus and efficiency. 01:50:25 📚 Even a modest increase in reading speed (25-50%) can have significant benefits over time. 01:51:32 🖊️ The act of underlining key phrases and making notes can enhance comprehension and recall. 01:55:25 💡 Everyone has a unique way of learning and executing tasks, going beyond traditional learning styles. 01:55:54 📊 Jim Kwik suggests there are four cognitive types, offering a personalized approach to learning. 01:57:16 🐆 Cheetahs are characterized by quickness and intuition. They thrive in fast-paced environments and are good implementers. 02:00:01 📝 The Brain Code Quiz provides personalized learning, goal setting, and lifestyle strategies depending on your dominant and secondary cognitive type. 02:01:23 🧘‍♂️ Happiness requires having the curiosity to know yourself and the courage to be yourself, as per Jim's philosophy. 02:03:27 👵 His time spent in senior centers and nursing homes polishing off memories gave him insight into the wisdom and regrets of the older generation. 02:04:09 🕰️ Regret often stems from limiting one's life based on societal expectations and worrying about other people's opinions. This insight encourages living a fulfilled life according to your own terms. 02:06:24 🚗 After a near-death experience in a car accident, Jim Kwik decided to sign a book deal to leave a legacy behind. 02:16:37 😌 Relaxation is crucial for better reading. A relaxed state allows for expanded vision, thus helping to read multiple words at a time. 02:17:32 📚 Most people haven't upgraded their reading skills since childhood. Kwik encourages developing these skills to enhance reading speed and comprehension. 02:21:20 📚 Speed can enhance focus. If you're moving quickly, such as when reading, there's no time to be distracted, improving comprehension. 02:21:49 🧠 Those who read faster generally comprehend better due to improved focus. 02:22:45 📖 Reading should be prioritized and done purposefully. Questions to ask yourself include: how can I use this, why must I use this, when will I use this? 02:24:54 🧩 Prioritize learning how to learn - this is a foundational skill that can help you in many areas of life.

I was trapped in a situation as a domestic violence survivor an found it difficult to escape my abusers home, I finally made a plan to get out and executed it. I am now safe an ready to live my own life again, thank you for the great counseling an online therapy I love you all for being wise an compassionate/!!!

Just bought Jim Kwik's book "Limitless" in Audio book version. Met him already at "The Diary of A CEO". Despite I'm from Germany 🇩🇪 I still stick to English since there is so much flow and cool short cuts of concepts 🙏😎

So much gold here and I’m only 20 minutes in

Every morning I walk 6 miles listen 30min audio book 30min church sermon and 30min catholic music. This has changed my life because my day at work is so much better for the whole day.

2 hours and 21 minutes in and I am STILL here! This is an incredible conversation! A beautiful conversation of thought.. I did other things in the background, made dinner, cleaned dishes, had a workout, tidied up, organised what I'm taking to work tomorrow etc.. but this has been really good! I need to watch/listen to more thought provoking podcasts. Thank you so much to whoever was involved in the creation of this video. I will attempt finger-reading tomorrow on my break 😅🧡 🙏🏽

Learning to be dysfunctional as a child will mess up your life. The harsh inner critic will hold you back. You have to develop a positive voice and not listen to the negative voice. I find healing my inner child is key to be present. I do love yoga, meditation, tapping with exercise to release negative energy in body and positive affirmations. I also release to a higher power. It is helping. I do like coaching and therapy. I use 12 step groups too. I want to break my misery. Learning to love yourself. I learned to care for everyone else.

11:20 yup getting direct sunlight will never go out of style

2:28:45 🤯- "If still listening to this there is a version of yourself that is patiently waiting... and the goal is you show up every single day until you are introduced." Beautiful Perfect. 🙏

The way Jim uses metaphors and abbreviations(BCD, HHH, 4 elements) is forcing me to stay engaged and excited I’m learning so much from this podcast, thank you for doing this!

I have just finished watching this episode. I have deactivated my Facebook and Instagram accounts, this is something I have wanted to do for ages, but I've been afraid to do it, I didn't realise how addicted I had become to them. Plus, I am a Cheetah 🐆 Which surprised me, I thought I would be a Dolphin 🐬 Thank you both for your wisdom 🙏

I watched one of your other videos where you were saying how the first thing in the morning is an important time and decided to start this morning differently. So, instead of laying in bed for 10-15 mins after my first alarm and scrolling on my phone, I got up right away. Didn’t look at my phone until I got into work and found this video to watch. I’ll say that even on the first day changing my routine, I feel significantly better. I am going to be more conscious of this and do things that are not technology related going forward. Now I have a strong urge to go buy myself a puzzle to put together 😄

Once upon a time, if I drove somewhere, I would "feel confident" that I could repeat the journey at any time in the future. I don't get that feeling if I use satnav. It's like in the past I was constantly tracking my position, but with satnav, you only know what the next turn is. I have also learnt to ignore the sense of anxiety of not knowing where I am whilst on the journey that I had when I first started using satnav.

Very inspiring talk. What I want to take from it mostly is that I am responsible for my life. And with that responsibility comes great power. Becouse no one else have really the greater power over my life and can change it more than me.

I got a lot from this, but I have to say the focus wasn't so much on overstimulation. I'm certain that what I've heard here will have a great impact in my life, but I'd love to hear more about the influence of social media/ phones on our brains and specially how to stop using SM so much. That's my main struggle.

This has easily been one of the most profound and informative podcast I’ve ever heard. I am stunned by the amount of invaluable information packed into a 2 hour podcast. Thank you for what you do. This has helped me tremendously.

1:29 - This is the #1 coaching tip I give my executive clients - professional folk with a 'to do' list a mile long - I share that the list has no 'time' component and thus will likely never get done, however if you schedule your activities in your diary you are more likely to get them done, it frees your mind from having to remember a host of things and if you take some time at the end of each day to check your scheduling quality - did something take twice as long as you anticipated? - then you get quite good at it. My clients report a clear headedness and calmness that they weren't expecting - this is usually because they didn't realise how much stuff they were trying to keep in their active memory.

I think that when we put so much emphasis on needing to absolutely love one's self and being optimistic and always positive and such then we actually doom many people to fail. I say this because with that logic we are basing our drive or motivation or need to change on feelings, and that is a disaster in most cases. I feel that no matter how you feel about yourself, your situation, your life, it does not matter. Change will only come when you actually put in the work, thats the main factor in all of this. Put in the work and regardless of how chipper or dower you are you will see results guaranteed and in turn you will feel a sense of elation and accomplishment and naturally and in a genuine way will start to become more confident and happy organically.

Everyday we wake up with a chance because we have choice!! I love that!! You're not alone !

Rangan, your point about how deep lack of self-worth and love sabotages our ability to maintain changes- really hit home for me. As an IFS practitioner, it motivates me to take people to those deep places, where it all arises from...

Kwiks ability to give examples that all lead with the same letter is incredible. 2:25:36

I love to expose myself to the elements too, makes me feel like im showing gratitude towards the environment. My way of saying thanks for being a part of me. Some people end up with Post-traumatic growth and others post-traumatic stress.

I recently discovered Jim Kwik on Diary of a CEO. Both interviews have been long and my focus has been non wavering. I will endeavour to get back to reading, although I will still devote time each evening for podcasts such as this. Love the interview style of Dr Chatterjee, no interruptions to the guest. Love it.

“I dont think necessarily everything is for everybody or everybody is for everything.”

Turning your phone to grayscale makes it so you don't even want to pick it up. It is definitely the addiction of the lights and the colors, as some have said, just like the slot machines in Las Vegas.

Only 42 minutes in and I know this is one of my favorite podcasts episodes ever. Thank you ❤

I’m from Brazil. I’ve just love this episode. Could hear you guys for hours! Please bring Jim again! Thank u Dr ❤

Exercise your mind by readingExercise your body by movingGREAT ADVICE!. Loved this conversation, it really puts so much into perspective!.

This podcast is absolutely phenomenal!. It's created an entire paradigm shift in my learning and reading game.

Crazy how much I can relate to him with his reading. I was sick when i was 6-10 yrs old so i was very behind with reading and school. Im 30 years old and my biggest fear is still reading out loud. I can read just fine. I have a high paid job that requires plenty of reading and comprehension. I just cant bring myself to read out loud...

I would like to add something important, compassion was touched on briefly here. That is extremely important. Please do not compare your self to the stories mentioned here. Everyone has a different story. Don’t think, “my story isn’t as horrible as some mentioned here today but I still can’t get it together. What’s wrong with me?” Have compassion for yourself. Your feelings are valid. You’ve gone through and are going through some things. Let’s now learn how to overcome it. Focus on your own journey and don’t compare yourself to anyone else’s.

I’m struggling with this.. as someone over 30 with a full time job and going back to school.. I see that I have to actively attack this if I want to focus and accomplish my goals. Love that people are addressing this problem.

min 39:00 OMG this is the most profoundly impacting wisdom i ever heard. If you really let this sink in ... complete game changer

00:00 Many people struggle with focus and memory due to digital distraction and information overload. 05:28 Technology can either be a tool or use us 16:09 Success is belief driven behavior 20:56 Behavior is belief driven. 30:36 Taking 100% responsibility for our lives gives us the power to make things better 35:27 Changing your beliefs and questions can lead to a different outcome 45:38 Avoiding the spotlight was my superpower. 50:10 Having a puzzle mindset instead of seeing problems 59:13 Purpose and energy are crucial for achieving goals. 1:03:38 Energy and motivation are influenced by factors such as stress, sleep, and purpose 1:12:52 Flex your focus muscle and avoid distractions 1:17:27 Journaling helps in clearing the mind and expressing gratitude 1:26:47 Schedule time for reading to prioritize mental growth. 1:31:17 Asking the right questions brings clarity and focus. 1:44:23 Using a visual Pacer while reading helps improve focus and reading speed 1:53:57 The brain quiz personalizes learning based on cognitive types. 1:58:50 Different brain types: Cheetah, Owl, Elephant, Dolphin 2:08:27 Using your opposite hand stimulates different parts of your brain 2:13:12 Juggling and playing table tennis can improve brain function and reading skills. 2:22:28 Prioritize learning how to learn and read more 2:27:01 Take small steps to show your followers something new about you and teach others.

Right on point with this discussion. My workplace is inundated with pings, zings and all kinds of digital things, alerts while handling phone calls with customers. We’re required to utilize messaging, emails and chats too. It is beyond multitasking and it can be very stressful. 🙄when off work, Unplugging from social media is a very good idea.❤

I love watching these videos just to see that nothing will change. Everyday is the same day.

Thanks so much for this wondrous interview with Jim Kwik. I’m 82 and I love meeting new (for me) Wisdom. And btw… Thanks for keeping your RU-vid vlog advertisement free!

Thank you for this. Every person on this Earth doing good, no matter how small, is changing humanity for the better.

I quit and my life has improved tenfold.

I love Immaculee and I also hugged her like three times. She has such an incredible presence and I am so grateful I heard her speak

I decided to learn classical guitar this year, and I was shocked to find the damage done to my brain - undoubtedly by my phone. Sitting down to learn a new skill, I could see my concentration was affected, it would waver after seconds and I'd lose track of where I was! I never used to be like that! 😮 so shocked. However 3 months later its coming back folks! Learning a musical instrument has been the best thing I've done for my brain for years. I'd highly recommend taking on a new challenge 🎉

There are so many important and wise things to think about in this video, and im only half way. What you can get out of this comments is my knowledge of "Corey wayne" The reputition is the mother of skill" read the book 10-15 times. You can only remember about 10% of the video/book. My point is, watch this video over and over again until it's well learned.

Whoa😱 just tried the reading experiment, without my finger was 12lines in 60 secs and with my finger 22 lines (there was pressure to put do 12, but 22😱😱😱) Thank you for the tip

I was distracted by this video popping up

No intro, no hook? Awesome👌 👏 👍

turned my phone off last night , it's after 3:00 pm now and i'm planning on keeping my phone off till tomorrow after noon. it really is the ultimate freedom

i have adhd , diagnosed @ 7. All of this is my normal everyday struggle 😅

RU-vid my favorite social media app you can learn something new everyday thanks for the information ❤️🙂

I read, run, learn a new language and play sudoku and chess! And I work 40hrs/week. But I still have more time than I ever had before, because I deleted social media 💪

Dr Chatterjee’s podcast is my favorite!

This is one of the best podcasts, ever! Thank you!

That guy Jim has the most smoothest voices I've ever heard 🥴. I could literally listen to him talk all day 😌

My friend gifted me Eger's book "The Gift". Almost 2 years ago. I've read half of it. I'm gonna open it again tonight when I go to bed. I struggle with adult diagnosed ADHD, stimulant treatment, addictive personality, past traumas, relationships at home and work and most important - self love... Thank you both for this podcast❤

Jim just keeps dropping bars

Thanks, i stopped scrolling through these comments and closed your video before it even went 1 minute.

Count me as a huge fan of this video. The discussion presented here is so thought-provoking.

Jim's great! Love the stories Thank you for having him on.

I started this video before work and couldn’t wait to finish it after work. I want to listen again. I’m so glad I found you two.

thank you so so so much for this.

By far the easiest 2.5 hour listen - so many gems - very informative! Thank you

Okay, this made me go and buy Jim's book. This was amazing. And I found it fascinating that I could pay attention to the podcast with zero issues, while I usually tune out after a few minutes.

alot of people underestimate just how addictive phone can be, and not just scrolling but texting, phone games, videos like this. I'm an artist and i think back to when i was in high school, before smart phones really became like a small computer, and how much art i could create then and how much i could improve and so on. i find lately i can't do that. and i want to say the hard cutoff between then n now is my phone useage. and you don't think you are addicted to something because its innocuous, it''s not something like a cigarette or drugs but obviously i can't put the phone down so

You are amazing Barbara thank you ❤

This was amazing! More people need to watch this 1000%

Super episode. Loved the way Jim says the life we live are the lessons we teach. Thank you doctor.

The life we live are the lessons we teach

I went 3 days without my phone. Interacting with humans directly each day. That was a time when i realised that i would prefer spending my entire life without a mobile phone.
