"I can’t believe I’m this far into the quest!"

I started out on this programme desperately wanting the confidence to KNOW that I could remember my lines! I’m dyslexic which has always been a struggle, but now I have Multiple Sclerosis - which presents itself with brain fog, fatigue, lack of energy, pain... etc! 
But I needed the confidence back to know that I could do it, to know that I haven’t ‘lost it’. 

Jim has an incredible knack for making us feel that we’re worth it, that we’re smarter than we think - and he can prove this when he takes us through a lesson, teaches us the techniques, sets the homework - and we get it right! Insane things like remembering the Periodic Table - I was never even taught that at school. 

I love things like ‘The Sun List’, ‘Chain Linking’, ‘Easy as PIE’, the acronyms that he uses, ‘TIP’ - I love that! 

Being dyslexic, everything is in pictures to me, so what he’s saying makes perfect sense. There are things that I need to practice, things I want to spend more time on, but I don’t feel alone in this. 

Having the tribe there for support, reading their own comments on particular lessons - their own results is brilliant. It’s another fantastic resource. 

Jim’s positivity and belief in us are such a strength to me. If I’m struggling or losing confidence in myself I only have to listen to one of the Q&A sessions, or go over a lesson - even his Podcasts (highly recommend them!), it just gives me a real boost. 

I can’t believe I’m this far into the quest! I’m gutted that it’s coming to an end - but what I am going to do is go over it all again - with more insight, going deeper into it, reinforce everything that I’ve learnt. 

I know he has a book out called ‘Limitless’, I’m going to buy it - LEARN MORE! There are many nuggets of wisdom that I can take with me, but if I was to take a quote from Jim, my favourite would be: “Life long learning adds years to your life and life to your years’ 

Thanks Jim - you're my hero...
