Welcome to Quick Brain, bite-sized brain hacks for busy people who want to learn faster and achieve more. I'm your coach Jim Quick.

Free your mind. Let's imagine if we could access 100% of our brain's capacity.

I wasn't high, wasn't wired, just clear. I knew what I needed to do and how to do it.

I know Kung Fu.

Show me.

Welcome back, Quick Brain. Your question for today. This is an important one.

How do you create your positive peer group? For years we've been talking about how do you optimize your brain health?

We talked about good brain diet, talked about sleep, talked about optimizing and reducing your stress management.

We've got one element that we mentioned that we don't think we're deep into. We're excited about this episode. How to create a positive peer group. You've heard these phrases in personal development,

who you spend time with, who you become, and where the average of the five people we spend the most time with.

But we know nobody could do it alone. It's not just your neurological networks. For sure, it's also your social networks.

I'm going to talk about the conversation with you. I've brought a good friend on his name is John Levy. He's a human behavioral scientist and author of this brand new book. You're invited. I love that title.

The art and science of cultivating in the ruins. Welcome on the show.

I'm super excited to be here. Jim, you know that like literally for years, I've been a fan of your work and the community that you built is absolutely incredible. And so it's, it's a treat to be on. Thanks for having me.

Thank you, man. You know, I watched your your Ted talk about the not only creating meaningful relationships is the connections, but it's also having levels of trust. How do you build those trusted relationships?

For sure. So first of all, I think you point to something really important.

Nobody likes networking. It's literally the worst. Researchers have found that your unconscious association to networking is needing to wash your hands because you are, you feel so dirty from it.

But what we don't feel dirty from is making friends.
