When\\u2019s the last time you remembered a new phone number? This used to be the norm, but now most of us rely on our digital devices for everything from phone numbers to directions and even basic math. This might feel harmless but it\\u2019s actually doing our brains a disservice. We\\u2019re living in an age of digital dementia, because we don\\u2019t have to rely on our brains for the memorization and navigation we used to. But it doesn\\u2019t have to be that way\\u2014we can retrain ourselves to learn faster, retain information better, and really maximize our time spent learning. The secret is meta-learning, or the science of learning how to learn. 

There\\u2019s no better person to dive into this topic than Jim Kiwk, my guest today on The Doctor\\u2019s Farmacy. Jim is the founder of Kwik Learning and a widely recognized world expert in speed-reading, memory improvement, brain performance, and accelerated learning. For over two decades he has served as the brain coach to many of the world\\u2019s leading C-suite executives and celebrities. After a childhood brain injury left him learning-challenged, Jim created strategies to dramatically enhance his mental performance. He has since dedicated his life to helping others unleash their true brainpower to learn faster and perform smarter. His recent book, Limitless, provides the keys to accelerated learning and endless potential
