Bestselling author and peak performance expert Steven Kotler decodes the secrets of those elite performersâ??athletes, artists, scientists, CEOs and moreâ??who have changed our definition of the possible, teaching us how we too can stretch far beyond our capabilities, making impossible dreams much more attainable for all of us.


What does it take to accomplish the impossible? What does it take to shatter our limitations, exceed our expectations, and turn our biggest dreams into our most recent achievements?

I feel like I've been reading this book forever. The first few chapters interested me, particularly the section on trying to find common threads between the things that interest you, but after that it became very dense and reminded me too much of a number of greedy, self-absorbed / psycho business people I've come across over the years (see Elon Musk if you don't know any personally) and I started to zone out.

Yesterday I decided to finish it once and for all, and actually I got more out of it than expected. Certain points were interesting, like his thoughts around getting into (and stying in) a sense of 'flow', and the importance of reading to become a master at what you do, and how to read around your area of interest to get most out of it. But somehow with many books like this I keep coming back to the same point - much of it is all very well if you've got time on your hands, and I'm pretty time poor.

If you hold people like Musk and Jobs on some kind of business pedestal you'll be the type of person who gets a lot out of this book, but it's not what I'm looking for at this stage in my life.

3 stars - some interesting concepts but a heavy read at times. ( )

I picked this up on a whim from the library after having had it on my radar for quite a while. I'm familiar with Kotler's work on flow, having followed him online for a time. Still, I hadn't previously read any of his books.

I found THE ART OF IMPOSSIBLE to be pretty approachable, despite being heavy on science and neurobiology (a lot of which, I admit, went over my head). And while I welcomed the practical application suggested, much of it seemed aspirational to your average person. Sure, Olympic athletes can schedule their day based on Kotler's methods to optimize flow, but most of us, who have responsibilities outside of our chosen passion/purpose paradigm, are going to struggle to make that happen.

Still, I appreciated the depth of insight shared in this book. ( )

A lot of science and research about achieving flow and improved performance. Whilst there are some good points of guidance I found the book to be quite long-winded. 3.7/5. ( )
