This is How You Find Your Superpower | Jim Kwik | Goalcast 

What superpower do you want to develop?

He is speaking so calmly yet is so loud to my senses and emotions at the same time. Wow!

Probably my favorite video by Goalcast to date purely on the fact on how much I can relate to Jim. I was born with my umbilical cord wrapped around my throat and it was double knotted. When I came out of my mother I was literally a shade of blue, miraculously I survived but it obviously had its side effects. I started school and almost didn't pass Kindergarten and the First Grade, both teacher thought I was slow because I had difficulty reading, when I entered the 2nd grade I still wasn't even at a 1st grade reading level. Only the very first day though my teacher wanted to talk to my parents, and they immediately thought oh no another one is going to tell us our son is slow. Instead of saying I'm slow she asked if she could test me to see if I'm gifted, and a few weeks later sure enough I went from being the slow kid to the gifted kid. But that was nothing yet, you know? I still couldn't read I just had a new label, so this teacher during reading time would take me to her desk and time my reading. As time went on I was starting to catch up with the other kids, but she still kept pushing me and eventually introduce me to one of the greatest story series I've read The Magic Tree House books. She even gave me some of her own copies of them, and I would take them home to read! Just like Jim I would stay up late reading with a flashlight because I wanted to escape to somewhere else like Jack and his little sister Annie! And as the year went on I got better, and better. I went into the second grade barely able to read, but I left the second grade at a fifth grade reading level, and for the first time in my life I actual felt deserving of that label my second grade teacher gave me at the beginning of the year. The take away from the video is find your superpower, but what I took away was Jim's friend's father and that it takes just 1 person to push you in the right direction to achieve greatness, we are all 1 person away from being the very best.

Hope everyone is GRINDING today!😃💙

Thank you so much for this video. I've had very similar struggles and challenges to Jim Kwik throughout my life, and I'm now trying to find my superpower. This video gave me goosebumps everywhere, and I suddenly felt a light glow at my center, shining brighter and brighter. When Jim said the he was given a photo of him and the cast of X-Men, and was told "You've always wanted to go to a superhero school, here's your class photo", that's when I started crying, because I see so much of my childhood self reflected by his story. And I used to always think that I was the only person in the entire world who was going through what I was going through. And I've been shown the truth.

"I want make my parents proud " This words destroyed more dreams that anything else.

My mind is blown. I can't wait to understand how I learn and evolve. Here's to breaking limiting beliefs. Thank you, Jim.

You are so amazing Jim! I’m so grateful you see it and share it with others!🌅🙌🏾🥰

Gotta say😢 I judged this guy before I even knew him. Now I'm filled with respect and admiration. Thank you Jim , it's not gonna be long before I study your work. Thank you for inspiring.

"It's not how smart you are, it's how are you smart." -Jim Kwik

He is so awesome! I have chill bumps and a lump in my throat like when I watch my favorite Hallmark movies. The superpower I want to develop is to encourage my family (my husband, children, grandchildren, and even the great grandchildren someday) that learning and educating yourself is the very best gift a person can give themselves, no matter how old or young you are!

Literal chills went through my body as I watched this. I feel like you've opened up new opportunities for me and gave me a wider perspective. This man is powerful

tbh you might be bad at things people are good at but you will be good at things people are bad at

This is so true! I actually wake up and imagine my day along with my future for the first 15 min. I’m adding it to my night routine as well so it can help my imagination even more! Thank you so much for sharing

This is the first time that I am watching your video and even knowing you for the very first time. You just impressed me. The way you talk, the way you told your story inspires me a lot. thank you so much for this. I wants to develop a superpower of learning and speaking English just like the way you speak. I watched most of your videos today and just want to salute you. You are the super hero :) :)

The video is truly inspirational. Thank you for sharing this story and reminding us about the importance of perseverance. Success is not made overnight, self-reflecting on our flaws will lead to self-improvement and a chance to live full out.

"And his greatest weakness, became his greatest strength." X~Men (1st Class). This video blew my frikn mind!

Mr. Kwik, I don’t know if you read these, but I want to thank you for sharing your story. It really resonated with me and touched a deep part of my life. So thank you. -m.e.

Anyone have a favourite talk from an introverted person like Jim? I love talks like this!

This was beautiful. His voice is sooo soothing and he’s very articulate.

WOW.

I don't like people who dislike somebody's genuine story.. what kind of person are u?

Hello, my friend told me before the exam, " when I am reading I guess and remember everything,as I know the material very well, but when I close the book I don't remember nothing. what is this,why does it happen for some students?

7:40 @Goalcast i would like this music snipped please host, i pay.

So totally sold

he was once smart hit his head: got dumb hit his head again: BRAIN

this mostly happened because that teacher was a bitch, so it's her fault he felt like this in the class, i had so many horrible teachers who made me doubt myself, my mind, everything, they were so cruel i didn't want to go to school anymore, but i became a teacher now, this motivated me, my experience made me realise i can make a change in someone's life, i can help a kid who is treated bad by other teachers

Wooooow

what if I'm hiding a super villain in me ?

What if someone lives in Syria ? is it all possible?

👌👌

What is this backgroud music called?

how does one "pass out" and fall down a flight of stairs?

My super power is depression. I'm going to spread this disease through out the nation until a hero shows up to save everyone. thats the reason why I exist.

WOW

Who else could relate to Jim's situation 🤔🤔🤔😃

Por favor traducir inglés.

motivational speakers are meant to come up with all this. that's the entire point, its nonsense with a a bit of truth, so don't always fall for every single one.

I love X Men

10:37 It's Not How Smart You Are It's How Are You Smart . . . WOW ! The Best Motivational I've Heard So Far 😃👏👏👏👏
