I'm not impressed by your looks, money, social status or job title. I'm impressed by the way you treat other human beings.―
“Don’t take criticism from someone you wouldn’t take advice from.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“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.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“Knowledge is power: You hear it all the time but knowledge is not power. It's only potential power. It only becomes power when we apply it and use it.
Somebody who reads a book and doesn't apply it, they're at no advantage over someone who's illiterate.
None of it works unless YOU work. We have to do our part. If knowing is half the battle, action is the second half of the battle.”
―“Perfectionism reduces creativity and innovation,”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“New belief: There is no such thing as failure. Only failure to learn.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“If our mindset is not aligned with our desires or goals, we will never achieve them.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“You can learn to unlimit and expand your mindset, your motivation, and your methods to create a limitless life. When you do what others won’t, you can live how others can’t.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“Our most precious gift is our brain.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“Give a person an idea, and you enrich their day. Teach a person how to learn, and they can enrich their entire life.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“If you are struggling to reach a goal in any area, you must first ask: Where is the limit? Most likely, you’re experiencing a limit in your mindset, motivation, or methods—which means that it’s not a personal shortcoming or failure pointing to any perceived lack of ability.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“If you’re struggling to find motivation to learn, or to accomplish anything else in your life, there is a good chance you haven’t uncovered the why of the task.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“Motivation is a set of emotions (painful and pleasurable) that act as the fuel for our actions.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“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.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“All behavior is driven by belief, so before we address how to learn, we must first address the underlying beliefs we hold about what is possible.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“you make mistakes; mistakes don’t make you.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“you don’t rise to the level of your expectations, you fall to the level of your training.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“To remember any new piece of information, you must associate it with something you already know.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“But being limitless is not about being perfect. It’s about progressing beyond what you currently believe is possible.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“Reasons that are tied to your purpose, identity, and values will sufficiently motivate you to act, even in the face of all of the daily obstacles that life puts in your way.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“Before each reading, take a few minutes to talk about or write what you remember from the previous reading.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“What I have come to find over my years of working with people is that most everyone limits and shrinks their dreams to fit their current reality.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“Motivation comes from purpose, fully feeling and associating with the consequences of our actions (or inactions).”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“In a era of autonomously driven electric cars and vehicles capable of taking us to Mars, our education system is the equivalent of a horse and carriage.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“The treasure you seek is in the work you're avoiding”
―“Our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we must be accountable for who we become.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“Do you remember what it was like when you were approaching your teens and you first started formulating thoughts and opinions independent of your parents? My guess is that this experience was extremely liberating for you and that it might have even been the first time in your life when you truly felt like your own person. What had happened to you, of course, was that your critical faculties had become refined enough to allow you to regularly employ reason to navigate through life.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“Scientists have learned that animals that experience prolonged stress have less activity in the parts of their brain that handle higher-order tasks—for example, the prefrontal cortex—and more activity in the primitive parts of their brain that are focused on survival, such as the amygdala.”
― Limitless: Upgrade Your Brain, Learn Anything Faster, and Unlock Your Exceptional Life“Perfectionism reduces creativity and innovation,” writes Hara Estroff Marano, editor at large and the former editor in chief of Psychology Today. “It is a steady source of negative emotions; rather than reaching toward something positive, those in its grip are focused on the very thing they most want to avoid—negative evaluation. Perfectionism, then, is an endless report card; it keeps people completely self-absorbed, engaged in perpetual self-evaluation—reaping relentless frustration and doomed to anxiety and depression.”
