I'm a medical student, and lately I have been having problems with concentrating and taking notes, I think my problem was I've tried to work harder than smarter, and I've been getting more and more depressed day in and day out thinking the problem is that I'm not good enough, I forgot how to make things enjoyable for myself, thank you so much for reminding me, wish you da best ya awesome man!

2 Years ago had a stroke on my right side ... With lots of Physical therapy work you cannot tell that I even had a stroke .However I felt my brain was slow in remembering thing .I can truly say that this method has helped me in my recovery in remembering things. Most importantly it has been used in my teaching of Medical Doctors .Your ...How ,WHy When I can used this info I learned from you around 2016 Listening to your podcasts . Very useful I recommend this to everyone . P.S. I bought your limitless book when it came out. Excellent work !!

I didnt know there is a difference between taking notes and making notes. I have started applying capturing and creating principle while listening to your podcasts and I find it easier to understand, remember and apply. Thanks Jim you have really equipped me and i will surely teach this children in our children's home

I’ve heard of the idea of “making notes” before, but never paired with “taking notes” and presented in such a simple way. 😊

When i was a little kid, i was naive, i want to change the world. Yesterday i was smart, so i want to change my family. Today, i am learn (from you), so i want to change my brain. et voila, when i change my brain, i change the world. Awesome, Mr. Jim. Thanks for sharing this. (Pardon me for influent english since i live in non-english primary language nation)

Thank you, Jim! You are just amazing! I used this method over 40 years ago when I was in college. In the meantime, I have neglected, almost forgotten this technique. Thanks for reminding me. It is good to know that at the age of 64 you can still "re"-learn old/new things.

Thank you, I'm 67 years old and just really learning how to take notes. I will share this today with my daughter who has just started college. I will implement this in a course that I'm presently taking. Thanks, again.

Thank you Jim. I look to you as the example of the teacher I want to be in my work. Your calm and quiet voice, your repeating things patiently, Is the right way to approach those who have to learn and understand.

Really do enjoy Jims content, both free and some of the courses. Best tip for me is implementation, so USING the stuff he shares. This can be the teaching again aspect or applying it in your life. I still remember the sun list months later, faster reader and so much more I think he can help me with.

This is so super simple. And it finally lets me know I'm not a bad student for getting distracted imagining applications while still taking the lecture. :face-blue-heart-eyes:

Thank you so much for sharing the invaluable information Jim. Last year I listened to one of your podcasts on how to remember items/things using corresponding body parts and imagination (ie. starting from the head, the ears, the nose, ... etc). Pair an item with a body part for memory retrieval. I taught my young niece and nephew this trick and they totally got it. What was shocking is 6 months later my nephew still remembers most of the pairings. I wish your methods are implemented in today's school programs. Your teaching is truly transformational on how we can improve and maximize learning.

Love this, fits perfect with my son , who is Freshman and struggles Adhd and with taking notes. As I learn methods to help him I help myself aswell. Will teach this to him asap! Knowledge x action = power 💪
