“Don’t let school interfere with your education.” I later learned he was paraphrasing a quote often attributed to Mark Twain.
“No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.”
Albert Einstein quote
LEARNING HOW TO LEARN
It was in that moment that I realized that if knowledge is power, then learning is our superpower.
Becoming limitless is not just about accelerated learning, speed-reading, and having an incredible memory. Yes, you will learn how to do all of that and more. But being limitless is not about being perfect. It’s about progressing beyond what you currently believe is possible.
When you do what others won’t, you can live how others can’t.
Remember, one step in a better direction can completely change your destination.
The Limitless Model
A limit in your Mindset—you entertain a low belief in yourself, your capabilities, what you deserve, or what is possible. A limit in your Motivation—you lack the drive, purpose, or energy to take action. A limit in your Methods—you were taught and are acting on a process that is not effective to create the results you desire.
Mindset (the WHAT): deeply held beliefs, attitudes, and assumptions we create about who we are, how the world works, what we are capable of and deserve, and what is possible. Motivation (the WHY): the purpose one has for taking action. The energy required for someone to behave in a particular way. Method (the HOW): a specific process for accomplishing something, especially an orderly, logical, or systematic way of instruction.
In Part II, Limitless Mindset, you’ll learn what is possible when you eradicate limiting beliefs. In Part III, Limitless Motivation, you’ll discover why your purpose is your power and keys to unleash your drive and energy. In Part IV, Limitless Methods, you’ll discover how to learn at your best with proven processes—the tools and techniques that will propel you forward toward the life you desire and deserve.

Simon Sinek, author of The Infinite Game, Simon refers to our “worthy rivals,”
Scientists call this little brain the enteric nervous system (ENS).
Give a person an idea, and you enrich their day. Teach a person how to learn, and they can enrich their entire life.
“One of my deepest concerns is that while education systems around the world are being reformed, many of these reforms are being driven by political and commercial interests that misunderstand how real people learn and how great schools actually work.
We’ve entered an expert economy in which brain power trumps brute strength.
Where what you have between your ears is your greatest wealth-creating asset.
The faster you can learn, the faster you can earn.
That superpower plant of a network between your ears is your greatest gift and greatest advantage. All we have to do is upgrade your brain the same way you upgrade your phone.
Research suggests humans forget approximately 50 percent of what they learn within an hour, and an average of 70 percent within 24 hours.1
For that reason, I suggest you use the Pomodoro technique, a productivity method developed by Francesco Cirillo based on the idea that the optimal time for a task is 25 minutes, followed by a 5-minute break.2
KWIK START Set a timer for 25 minutes right now and concentrate on what you’re reading in this book for that amount of time. When your alarm goes off, bookmark this
book and close it. Then write down what you learned within that 25-minute period.
I call it the FASTER Method, and I want you to use this as you read, starting now. The acronym FASTER stands for: Forget, Act, State, Teach, Enter, Review. Here’s the breakdown:
Some people who claim to have twenty years of experience have one year of experience that they’ve repeated twenty times. To

“Life is C between B and D,” meaning that the life we live is the choices we make between the “B” of birth and the “D” of death.
How can I use this? Why must I use this? When will I use this?
use the term LIE intentionally. In this case, LIE is an acronym for Limited Idea Entertained.
